A lot of fascinating research examines Rome, and myths about Rome. Some researchers
examine the influence of Rome (and myths in film and modern media) upon American
government and society, and they fear the totalitarian system that led to
Rome's downfall. Those worries have relevance today in the enormous size and
scope of government in the USA and its growing police state. http://rexcurry.net/roman-salute-ancient-roman-empire-forums-saluto-romano.html
Classical studies have gained some amazing recent discoveries. Recently, the
noted Roman historian Dr. Rex Curry debunked the so-called "ancient
Roman salute" http://rexcurry.net/roman_salute_roman_salute_roman_salute.jpg
Roman Salutes from ancient Rome are a myth. The straight-arm salute later
used by the National Socialist German Workers' Party (NSGWP) did not exist
in ancient Rome. It originated in the USA's early Pledge of Allegiance (1892).
Philologist Curry showed that the USA's early pledge of allegiance to the
flag used a straight-arm salute and it was the source of the salute of the
monstrous German National Socialists. The "ancient Roman salute" is a modern
myth that grew during and after the lives of Edward Bellamy (1850-1898) and
Francis Bellamy (1855-1931). The myth is still repeated in efforts
to cover-up Dr. Curry's ground-breaking work. http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-pledge.html
Information from the American Philological Association (APA) supports Dr.
Rex Curry's work. The American Philological Association (APA), founded in
1869 by "professors, friends, and patrons of linguistic science," is now the
principal learned society in North America for the study of ancient Greek
and Roman languages, literatures, and civilizations.
An abstract from the APA states that the raised-arm salute was used in fictional
Roman scenes in these films: the American "Ben-Hur" (1907), the Italian "Nerone"
(1908), "Spartaco" (1914), and "Cabiria" (1914). Those scenes helped
lead to the "Roman salute" myth. Dr. Curry's amazing discovery developed
after he showed that the APA abstract was uninformed about the fact that the
Pledge of Allegiance pre-dated all of the films cited and that the pledge
was the source of the salute used in the films.
The abstract states, "Notable other examples of the salute, by now a standard
part of ancient iconography in the cinema, appear in Ben-Hur (1925)
and in Cecil B. DeMille’s Sign of the Cross (1932) and Cleopatra
(1934), although the execution of the gesture is still variable. Of particular
importance for the visual record are two films by Leni Riefenstahl, Triumph
of the Will (1935) and Olympia (1938). As is to be expected, the
former regularly features the salute; the latter shows [the leader of the
National Socialist German Workers' Party], German spectators and officials
in Berlin’s Olympic stadium, and several victorious German and Italian athletes
giving it. So do a number of athletic teams entering the stadium."
The book "Projecting the Past: Ancient Rome, Cinema and History" by Maria
Wyke also supports Dr. Curry's discovery. Here is a quote from the book acknowledging
that the salute was not from ancient Rome: "The supposed 'Roman' salute had
given....an identity as the inheritor of Roman civic virtues and imperial
policy." (p 50)
Wyke's book has this remark about the widespread ignorance concerning the
myth, "Such an analysis of 'The Last Days of Pompeii' (1935) as willfully
turning the tradition of romanita against the very community which had invented
it is supported by a question that was posed to school students in the educational
guide that accompanied the release of the film. It reads: "What form of salute
was used by the Romans? In what countries are similar salutes now demanded
by the government?"
Although Wyke realized that the straight-arm salute was not from ancient
Rome, she did not know its origin. Although Wyke's quotation of the
questions concerned the 1935 version of the film, there was a 1913 version
of the film also. Dr. Curry's work answered the both questions thusly: the
straight-arm salute was not used by the Romans, and other countries with similar
salutes demanded by the government (in 1935) included Germany, Italy, and
the United States (people in some parts of the U.S. had been required to
perform the salute from 1892 through 1942).
The leader of the National Socialist German Workers' Party was a film fan,
and would specifically order American films to view.
Many books about philology mention the work of the German archaeologist
Heinrich Schliemann. In 1873, he excavated what he believed to be Troy. Troy
is a legendary city, described in the Iliad, one of the two epic poems attributed
to Homer and it influenced Rome.
Schleimann found examples of the swastika symbol during his exploration
of Troy, and his discovery later influenced the use of the symbol in the NSGWP.
Over a century after Schleimann’s work, there was another discovery by Professor
Curry: Although the swastika was an ancient symbol, it was also used sometimes
by the National Socialist German Workers’ Party to represent meshed "S" letters
for their "socialism." The leader of German National Socialists turned the
symbol 45 degrees to the horizontal and oriented it to always point clockwise.
Although it was an ancient symbol, was used sometimes by the German National
Socialists to represent overlapping S-shaped figures for their "socialism."
He altered his own signature to use the same symbolism and similar alphabetic
symbolism still shows on Volkswagens. Similar to a Roman Standard,
he put it on the national flag and turned it into a military rallying point.
http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-swastika.html
The symbol was used in a war worse than a thousand Trojan Wars. In
1939, the National Socialist German Workers' Party joined with the Union
of Soviet Socialist Republics to invade Poland in a pact to divide up Europe.
The socialist philosophy had similarities to Rome in glorifying the military,
authoritarianism, slavery and conquest and it led to the worst slaughter of
humanity ever. How many people died in the Trojan War? Few compared
to the number killed in the socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was
a part): the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (62 million dead), the Peoples'
Republic of China (49 million dead), the National Socialist German Workers'
Party (21 million dead).
Many books attribute large Roman influence upon Germany and the United States.
One parallel between the three is that they both developed large authoritarian
governments. The present government in the USA is anti libertarian and is
out-socializing the previous administration by more than double and growing
(in social spending ALONE).
Another parallel between Germany and Rome is that they both persecuted people
who did not adopt the official dogma. Specific groups of people were persecuted
in Rome and Germany.
It helps to show how close the USA moved toward (and is still moving toward)
the socialist Wholecaust (of which the Holocaust was a part). Many Americans
serve as sad examples of how authoritarian governments come into existence,
grow so large, last so long, and kill so many. The dogma of socialism and
human sacrifice is still growing all over the world.
The USA still follows similar anti libertarian policies promoted by the
Bellamys. Many socialist Bellamy policies caused the USA’s big, expensive
and oppressive government and its growing police-state. It caused the Great
Socialist Depression (from the Federal Reserve Act of 1913, the Smoot-Hawley
Tariff Act 1930 etc) that persisted and even lasted through U.S. involvement
in WWII. The Pledge still exists along with laws mandating that teachers
lead the robotic pledge chanting every day for twelve years of each child’s
life (though the salute was altered). The government still owns and operates
schools, including the same schools that imposed segregation by law and taught
racism as official government policy. The U.S. practice of imposing
segregation by law in government schools and teaching racism as official
policy even outlasted the National Socialist German Workers' Party by over
15 years. After segregation in government's schools ended, the Bellamy legacy
caused more police-state racism of forced busing that destroyed communities
and neighborhoods and deepened hostilities. Those schools still exist.
Infants are given social security numbers (socialist slave numbers) that
track and tax them for life. Government schools demand the numbers for
enrollment.
**************************
The original Pledge of Allegiance began with a military salute that then
stretched out toward the flag. Historic photographs are at http://rexcurry.net/pledge2.html
and at http://rexcurry.net/pledge_military.html
In actual use, the second part of the gesture was performed with a straight
arm and palm down by children extending the military salute while perfunctorily
performing the forced ritual chanting. Professor Curry showed that,
due to the way that both gestures were used sequentially in the pledge, the
military salute led to the hard, stylized salute of German socialists. The
Nazi salute is an extended military salute via the pledge. http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-pledge.html
Francis Bellamy (author of the "Pledge of Allegiance") and Edward Bellamy
(author of the novel "Looking Backward") and Charles Bellamy (author of "A
Moment of Madness") and Frederick Bellamy (who introduced Edward to socialistic
"Fourierism") were socialists. Edward, Charles and Frederick were brothers,
and Francis was their cousin. Francis and Edward were both self-proclaimed
National Socialists and they supported the "Nationalism" movement in the
USA, the "Nationalist" magazine, and the "Nationalist Educational Association."
They wanted to nationalize everything and they wanted all of society to ape
the military and they touted "military socialism" and the "industrial army."
Edward inspired the "Nationalist Party" (in the USA) and their dogma
influenced socialists worldwide (including Germany) via “Nationalist Clubs.”
http://rexcurry.net/bellamy-edward-german-connections.html
The Pledge was the origin of the Nazi salute. "Nazi" means "National
Socialist German Workers' Party." A mnemonic device is the swastika. Although
the swastika was an ancient symbol, Professor Curry discovered that it was
also used sometimes by German National Socialists to represent "S" letters
for their "socialism." Curry changed the way that people view the symbol
of the horrid National Socialist German Workers' Party. Hitler altered his
own signature to use the same stylized "S" letter for "socialist" and similar
alphabetic symbolism still shows on Volkswagens. http://rexcurry.net/book1a1contents-swastika.html
The Bellamys promoted a government takeover of schools. When the government
granted their wish, the government schools imposed segregation by law and
taught racism as official government policy. The schools mandated the
robotic chanting of the pledge with the Nazi-style salute and persecuted and
expelled children who would not comply, arrested parents, and even took children
from parents on allegations of "unfit parenting."
For civilians, the swastika symbol became the worship of government and
socialism. A bias of authors about Rome is that they use the misleading
term swastika when discussing the symbol found by Schleimann and used by
German socialists. Most people do not know that a cross was worshiped as
the notorious symbol of the National Socialist German Workers' Party. The
group called their symbol the Hakenkreuz, not the swastika. Hakenkreuz means
"hooked cross." It is one of the biggest cover-ups of all time.
Another big cover-up is in overuse of the hackneyed shorthand term for
the horrid National Socialist German Workers’ Party. Some authors overuse
the short word so much that it might cause one to wonder if they know what
the abbreviation abbreviates. They seem unaware that Party members
did not refer to themselves by the shorthand term, but they referred to themselves
as socialists.
In the book "Swastika the earliest known symbol and its migrations" by
Thomas Wilson (published in 1894 at page 771) Professor Max Muller cautioned
against the use of the term "swastika" and said "I do not like the use of
the word svastika outside of India. It is a word of Indian origin and
has its history and definite meaning in India. * * * The occurrence of such
crosses in different parts of the world may or may not point to a common
origin, but if they are once called Svastika the vulgus profanum will at
once jump to the conclusion that they all come from India, and it will take
some time to weed out such prejudice." Muller's prediction was amazingly
accurate, and it is amusing that he labeled so many people in the world today
as "vulgus profanum."
The USA still follows similar anti libertarian policies promoted by the
Bellamys. Many socialist Bellamy policies caused the USA’s big, expensive
and oppressive government and its growing police-state. The Pledge still
exists along with laws mandating that teachers lead the robotic pledge chanting
every day for twelve years of each child’s life (though the salute was altered).
The government still owns and operates schools, including the same schools
that imposed segregation by law and taught racism as official government
policy. The U.S. practice of imposing segregation by law in government
schools and teaching racism as official policy even outlasted the National
Socialist German Workers' Party by over 15 years. After segregation in government's
schools ended, the Bellamy legacy caused more police-state racism of forced
busing that destroyed communities and neighborhoods and deepened hostilities.
Those schools still exist. Infants are given social security numbers
that track and tax them for life. Government schools demand the numbers
for enrollment.
People who attended government schools in the USA are shocked to learn
of the new discoveries, and they have difficulty responding in a rational
manner. They are humiliated and embarrassed that they have been kept ignorant
by government schools and even lied to while being led in robotic chanting
for 12 years. The stereotypical response involves a state of denial
where the respondent can formulate no factual dispute (a mental block-out
of the factual history) and only childish insults that evade the topic altogether.
It shows how conditioned US citizens are by the years of robotic chanting.
Some US citizens are not able to face the reality of the history of
the pledge. The pledge has become an example of how dangerous government schools
are. The pledge is a primary justification for ending government schools.
As the saying goes "remove the pledge from the flag, the flag from
the schools, and the schools from government."
