Juggling from Antiquity to the Middle Ages

The Forgotten History of Throwing and Catching

From the publisher: This book is an attempt to catalogue the tangible history of juggling in human culture. It is the story of juggling, represented in art and writing from around the world, across time. Although much has been written about modern jugglers–specific performers, their props, and their routines–little has been said about those who first developed the craft. As juggling enters a golden age in the internet era, Juggling: From Antiquity to the Middle Ages offers a look into the past—to the origins of our art form.
