Editing Jester (section)

===Carnival and medieval reenactment===
During the Burgundian and the [[Rhenish]] [[carnival in the Netherlands|carnival]], cabaret performances in local dialect are held. In [[North Brabant|Brabant]] this person is called a "tonpraoter" or "sauwelaar", and is actually in or on a barrel. In [[Limburg (Netherlands)|Limburg]] they are named "buuttereedner" or "buutteredner" and in [[Zeeland]] they are called an "ouwoer". They all perform a cabaret speech in dialect, during which many current issues are reviewed. Often there are local situations and celebrities from local and regional politics who are mocked, ridiculed and insulted. The "Tonpraoter" or "Buuttereedner" may be considered successors of the jesters.<ref>{{cite web|author=Home Kalender Nieuws Zoekertjes Albums Copyright |url=http://www.fenvlaanderen.be/carnaval/wat-carnaval |title=Wat is carnaval? |website=Fen Vlaanderen |language=nl-BE |access-date=2014-01-23}}</ref>
