Spielmann
a wandering actor and musician in medieval Germany and Austria. The Spielmann, who was similar to the French jongleur and the Russian skoromokh (itinerant performer), was at once a poet, actor, singer, acrobat, and dancer. In addition to heroic folk narratives, he performed tales and Schwänke (satiric folktales) of his own invention, appearing at fairs, folk festivals, and court celebrations. The art of the Spielmann was often anticlerical and antifeudal. Want to thank TFD for its existence?

Szpilman died in 2000 but his widow Halina Szpilman was present at Friday's ceremony, as were his son Andrej Szpilman, other members of Hosenfeld's family and Gisela Kuck from Yad Vashem. Unlike the majority of Holocaust survivors, who allowed themselves time to take stock, absorb and even come to terms with the past, Szpilman didn't wait. |
