Gaer is who? What is the difference between a clown and a clown

Fools are familiar to mankind since ancient times. The first mention of this profession was in the stories of Pliny when he visited the palace of King Ptolemy I. In the Middle Ages there was a real "comic boom". It was at this time, as historians say, that the greatest flourish and prosperity of the jester's craft took place.

Who is this gary

Direct analogy and modern translation of some Old Russian words is not available today for everyone. For example, very few people know who the guer is. Let's look at the explanatory dictionaries.

Gaer is a person who works on the street and cheers people at fairs and festivities. Today such a word is forgotten and not used at all. But in the old days it was quite a popular profession. The ability to make people laugh with their absurd shouts and jokes-jokes was inherited. Fathers taught children to make people laugh, to amuse them and make it their daily bread.

Gaer is a comic and a joker, which is designed to entertain and make people laugh. Since ancient times, a street jester has been called ger. He worked both alone and in an artistic troupe. For example, in France, the gaures took an active part in the creation of comic shows and folk performances.

In translation from Napoleon's language, Bonaparte is a gay person. In English or German, this word means "clown, buffoons".

Fool or clown

Many people think that the clown and clown, hence the guer, are the same words that have a common meaning. But in fact, the clown is very different from the jester. Even the great Charlie Chaplin always took offense when he was called in the press gerom. He once fell deeply in love with France precisely because it was the first country where the "icon of the twentieth century comedy" was not called hayer, but was recognized as the actor of the comedy.

Who is a ger in reality: a jester or a clown? Historians argue that the hares are closer to jesters, crooks and jokers. From some languages, this word is translated as "curved" and "show erysipelas". They always tried to joke inappropriately and even went to just draw attention.

Gathering and working at festive festivities or fairs, the gays received mostly "wages" for food. This was especially common in the Middle Ages. After a century, Guer began to receive and some money for their own antics. Clowns appeared much later. It was already a profession for which the salary was paid not by the people at the fairs, but by the employer. Professional clowns always take offense, if they are called jesters or guards. However, if you believe the story, it was from the hare there was a jester, and from the clown - a modern clown.

A bit of history

Traditionally, the guar was depicted in pictures in a funny cap, on which bells jingled gaily. This outfit was used not only for the brightness of the costume, but also for attracting spectators. In medieval England there were Puritan customs, so the guards and the fool here at first did not get accustomed. The meaning of the word "gaer" was associated with a mentally retarded person, wandering around the street and asking for bread scrap for his antics.

However, not only the poor and the sick became jesters. Gayr could become a man of his own free will, and not in need. Born already and in those days, talented people who can understand the subtleties of comedy, tragedy and give people their talent worthily.

From the clown to the clowns

Already in the days of Shakespeare, Guer was not just a jester, cheering people. In plays by the author, he often plays a more thoughtful, serious, lyrical role. The fool no longer simply crimps, but plays music, juggles and recounts poetry.

The Russian boyar houses also worked gers. They cheered the guests, mixed their jokes. At the same time, a professional ger who was revered in the profession and earned well, no longer made faces, in order to make the audience laugh. An experienced jester at that time was a fairly well-educated man: he knew poetry, read plays, could give an anecdote artistically, and so on.
