Journey into the rich history of tarot cards and uncover the intertwined cultural influences, traditions, religions, spiritualities, and the social upheaval that shaped the tarot as we know it today.

The Cultural Roots of Tarot examines its long history from a sociocultural, cross-continental, multilingual, and intergenerational perspective. By tracing the cultural origins of those who had a hand in the cards' creation, this comprehensive exploration reveals how the Minor and Major Arcanas reached Italy separately--nearly a century apart--through diverse cultural landscapes spanning China, Persia, Egypt, the Roma people, the caliphates of the Levant and North Africa, Spain, France, and Italy. This is not just the story of tarot but also all the actual people and places in history that made it possible.
