About this ebook
Das 1804 erschienene und in Weimar - unter der Regie von Johann Wolfgang Goethe - uraufgeführte Blankvers-Drama "Wilhelm Tell" war Friedrich Schillers letztes und lange Zeit erfolgreichstes Stück. Das Geschichtsdrama spielt um 1300 in der Schweiz und behandelt den Freiheitskampf der Urkantone. Der überzeugte Einzelkämpfer Wilhelm Tell wird - wider Willen, aber im eigenen Interesse - zum Tyrannenmörder, Volkshelden und Mitbegründer einen freien Gesellschaftsordnung. Als National- oder Freiheitsdrama erlebte Schillers Wilhelm Tell eine bewegte Aufführungsgeschichte bis zum Verbot durch die Nationalsozialisten im Jahr 1941.

- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5One of the prominent German figures, Schiller as a playwright promoted democracy. Here, the heroic Swiss huntsman pursues his independent streak while the governor of his canton sees his figure as a threat to his power. You already know the story, but the play delves more into the struggle than just the apple on the head of Tell's son.
- Rating: 3 out of 5 stars3/5Yes, this was the classic story of the hero that shoots an apple off the head of his son. Yes. it inspired an opera of the same name from which we music lovers get the William Tell Overture. But the actual play has a lot more pledging, vowing, organizing, traveling and swearing to fight against the enemies of freedom than actually doing anything to accomplish those goals. So with that in mind I think I would just go ahead and see the opera and in that way you could enjoy the musical and visual stimulation.
- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5Seldom does a play include fewer scenes or lines for the title character, yet Wilhelm Tell is in few scenes and has relatively little to say in this great play, the last completed, by Friedrich Schiller. Yes, there is the famous scene where Tell refuses to bow to the "hat", the symbol of repressive Habsburg power, and is in turn forced to shoot the apple off his son's head. And there is the ultimate act which makes him a patriotic hero when he kills the Governor Gessler, the imperial representative hated by Tell's fellow countrymen and women. Beyond that the scenes in this play demonstrate the importance of those countrymen and their closeness to the land and traditions of their forefathers. This is a powerful romantic drama about the desire for freedom, but it is also an Arcadian idyll that presents the best of nature. It seems almost Rousseauian in the opening scenes that are set in a seeming "state of nature". Eden like as the country may be it is also beset by tyranny from the dreaded imperial Hapsburg empire. We see the attraction this life has for Ulrich von Rudenz, the nephew of Baron von Attinghausen. While Attinghausen is a patriot his nephew is attracted to the other side and is brought back to support his countrymen only through the intervention of his love for young Berta. The importance of Berta and Lady Gertrud in their influence over the men closest to them is worth noting. Schiller's play, the culmination of his dramatic art, is a joy to read. While the large cast and number of different scenic locations make this a difficult work to stage I could not help thinking that we are overdue for a cinematic traversal of this tremendous literary resource.
