Podrobnosti o e‑knize
Revolutionary Symbols explores the powerful role of visual and cultural language in shaping political revolutions and social movements throughout history. It examines how seemingly simple images and phrases become potent tools that ignite movements, reshape nations, and redefine ideologies. The book delves into the origins, evolution, and impact of flags, slogans, and cultural symbols, offering insights into the dynamics of power, collective identity, and social change.
For example, the hammer and sickle came to represent the Russian Revolution, and national flags became rallying points in anti-colonial struggles. The book uniquely focuses on the agency of symbols, demonstrating how they actively shape political consciousness and mobilize collective action rather than merely reflecting underlying ideologies. It analyzes the semiotics and historical context of these symbols to reveal their power to galvanize support and legitimize new regimes.
Starting with core concepts of symbolism and propaganda, the book progresses through case studies of specific revolutions, culminating in a discussion of the enduring legacy of revolutionary symbols and their reinterpretations in subsequent political movements. This approach provides a comprehensive understanding of the strategic use of symbols in shaping narratives, public opinion, and collective action.
