Joker: The History of Court Fools


Overview

A Jester, Court jester, Trickster or Fool was historically a comedian and entertainer during the medieval and Renaissance eras who was a member of the household of a nobleman or a monarch. He was employed to bring some lightness to the courts of Medieval Europe, and to take the edge of de burden of reigning a country. They oftentimes became the ruler's best friend. Jesters could also give bad news to the King that no one else would dare deliver. Often verbally rope-dancing in the medieval political arena, the fool from the old times can be seen as the predecessor of our modern-day comedian. Notoir Books is a publisher of books on topics of esoteric interests, eccentric memoirs, overlooked history, otherworldly stories and distinctive voices. You can visit us at notoirbooks.com.
