Anna Pronina, a journalist, writer and playing card collector, conducted a real investigation to learn as much as possible about the history of games in the Middle Ages. What did they play within the walls of ancient castles? How did ordinary townspeople have fun? How did passion and games change the history of states? Particular attention was paid to playing cards, since not much information about them has survived to this day. The author understands who invented them and when, why they are called “devilish pictures”, what the card symbolism speaks about. From the book you will learn: why card suits are present in the subjects of paintings in early Christian churches; how pictures from playing cards ended up in the sacred books and back ;how children spent their leisure time in the Middle Ages; what amused adults most of all in the Middle Ages; what games from the Middle Ages can still be played today; and also: signs, fortune telling, superstitions - from the best psychics of the country. Interview with medium Alexander Sheps, clairvoyant Nicole Kuznetsova , tarot reader Anton Mamon, clairvoyant Fatima Khadueva; grand master of the Tarot Elsa Khapatnyukovskaya, artist Alexei Orleansky, gypsy Aza Petrenko, collector Eduard Schweigert and others. The publishing layout is saved in PDF A4 format.
