Emerging from the world of the Italian commedia dell'arte, Hanswurst evolved into a distinct character uniquely associated with the Austrian stage. The author traces Hanswurst's origins, analyzes his repertoire, and explores the social and cultural factors that contributed to his enduring popularity. Through extensive research, the author uncovers the historical Hanswurst, revealing a figure far more complex and nuanced than the buffoonish stereotype that has come down to us. This book is a major contribution to the study of popular culture and theater history, shedding new light on a beloved character who played a central role in shaping the theatrical landscape of his time. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.
