Astley's Amphitheatre and the early circus in England, 1768-1830 by Kwint, M

“…<p>Founded in Lambeth in 1768 by the ex-cavalry sergeant Philip Astley (1742-1814), Astley's was one of the first entertainments to mix traditional acrobatic feats with the new trick-riding in a ring, thus founding the modern circus. As the leading example of the artform, the permanent Amphitheatre just south of Westminster Bridge went on to be immortalised by Dickens and parodied by Punch, before closure in 1893. …”

Evolved P450 mutants as general oxidation catalysts by Harwood, LA
