Abstract
During the 17th and 18th century the ‘Hanswurst’ figures as the most prominent fool in plays of travelling theatres in German speaking countries. The following article concentrates on Vienna and its theatrical culture. It conceives the dramatic function of this special fool as an artful intervention that opens up a space of/for cultural and aesthetic negotiations. The author will argue that this ‘playground’ constitutes a culture of popular entertainment, which paradoxically ends at the moment of its instauration.
