Summary: Oh, the art of juggling has mystified and amazed audiences for centuries. Early records of juggling date back to Ancient Egyptian times. Since then, juggling has evolved itself into many different forms. Where once only balls were thrown, the modern juggler may use rings, clubs, or beanbags. For those jugglers that are even more daring, dangerous items like chainsaws, knives, and fire torches are used. The modern word juggling is derived from the Middle English jogelen. While we may think of the colorful performers forced to entertain a temperamental king's court, there were many jugglers that were denounced by the overly strict religious views of the Church. Accusing jugglers of base morals, some clerical men even went so far to accuse these tricksters of witchcraft. These humble fools were only able to perform in the marketplaces, streets, fairs, and pubs of Medieval Europe. Fast forward many centuries to present time. Today, juggling has become a hobby of international attention. Now, there is a World Juggling Day and many juggling conventions. While the performing art may have transformed into a hobby, there is no denying that juggling has and always will appeal to the trickster in all of us.
