  • 89 the power behind the throne

    "власть за троном", невидимая власть [выражение основано на высказывании английского государственного деятеля У. Питта Старшего (W. Pitt, 1st Earl of Chatham, 1708-78); см. цитату]

    A long train of these practices has at length unwillingly convinced me that there is some thing behind the throne, greater than the King himself. (W. Pitt, ‘Speech in the House of Lords’, March 2, 1770, APT) — Многочисленные факты подобного рода наконец убедили меня против моей воли, что существует власть за троном, превышающая власть самого короля.

    She stretched her arms above her head and danced to the music, slowly, voluptuously. Maybe she was really made for the days of great courtesans - the power behind the throne... (D. Cusack, ‘Black Lightning’, part IV) — Подняв руки над головой, она танцевала в сладострастной истоме в такт музыке. Может, она действительно создана для того времени, когда великие куртизанки были невидимыми вершителями судеб государства.

    In response to the anti-monopoly movement of the New period, Congress passed legislation which was supposed to disclose the real powers behind the corporate thrones... (V. Perlo, ‘The Empire of High Finance’, ch. V) — Правда, под давлением антимонополистического движения периода "Нового курса" Конгресс принял законы, разоблачающие истинные силы, стоящие за тронами корпораций...

    Well, it happens that the power behind the throne in that paper, the man who really owns it, is George C. Belter. (E. S. Gardner, ‘The Case of the Velvet Claws’, ch. 6) — Следует сказать, что Джордж К. Велтер - фактический владелец этого журнальчика и его невидимый миру вдохновитель.

Foster, ‘Outline Political History of the Americas’, book I, ch. VIII) — Англия стала владычицей морей и вступала в период своего величайшего могущества, оставаясь на протяжении более ста лет ведущей мировой державой.
