Question

Adolf Hitler banned a play titled for this character following the execution of Maurice Bavaud (“bah-VOH”). A history by Aegidius Tschudi (“ay-GID-ee-uss T’SHOO-dee”) inspired a play that opens with this character ferrying a fugitive across a lake during a storm. The Baron of Attinghausen (“AH-ting-how-zen”) disapproves of a guardsman arresting this character near a new prison. This character refuses to (*) salute the cap of a governor (10[1])whom he later assassinates in a ravine, inspiring a peasant uprising. In an 1804 play, Walter tells this character “I promise to stand still” during an ordeal ordered by the tyrant Gessler. For 10 points, a Friedrich Schiller (“FREE-drick SHILL-ur”) play is titled for what Swiss hero, who is made to shoot an apple off his son’s head? ■END■
