RT Book T1 The paths of evil: conspiracies, plots, and secret societies A1 De Mattei, Roberto 1948- A2 Reitzug, Nicholas LA English PP Manchester, NH PB Sophia Institute Press YR 2023 UL https://krimdok.uni-tuebingen.de/Record/1883303109 AB "Conspiracies and secret societies exist because man, wounded by Original Sin, is inclined to evil and his social nature leads him to unite with other men in carrying out evil plans. With typical precision, historian Robert de Mattei navigates us through this gloomy labyrinth of evil amid plots, conspiracies, and congiure - terms often used as synonyms but which, through their semantic and conceptual differences, can each assist us in understanding better the hidden dimension of the history of the past five centuries." -- from back cover NO First published in Italian as I sentieri del male, 2022 NO Includes bibliographical references SN 9781644139424 K1 Conspiracies : History K1 Secret societies : History K1 Conspiracy Theories : History K1 Conspiration - Histoire K1 Sociétés secrètes - Histoire K1 Théories du complot - Histoire K1 Geheimbund : Verschwörung : Geschichte
