Title
Disruptive Library Technology Jester
Description
Excerpted from the website:
- The Jester welcomes you to Court
- Of at least equal importance with his entertainer’s cap was the jester’s function as adviser and critic. This is what distinguishes him from a pure entertainer who would juggle batons, swallow swords, or strum on a lute or a clown who would play the fool simply to amuse people. The jester everywhere employed the same techniques to carry out this delicate role, and it would take an obtuse king or emperor not to realize what he was driving at, since “other court functionaries cooked up the king’s facts for him before delivery; the jester delivered them raw.” An informal survey of the man in the street has shown that most people will pinpoint the jester’s right to speak his mind as one of his salient characteristics.
