The Good Soldier Svejk: and His Fortunes in the World War - Il buon soldato Sc'vèik by Jaroslav HasekVoglioleggereFiction, World war I, Humor, Satire, Absurdity of war, 'Tak nám zabili Ferdinanda, ' øekla posluhovaèka panu Švejkovi, který opustiv pøed léty vojenskou službu, když byl definitivnì prohlášen vojenskou lékaøskou komisí za blba, živil se prodejem psù, ošklivých neèistokrevných oblud, kterým padìlal rodokmeny. Kromì tohoto zamìstnání byl stižen revmatismem a mazal si právì kolena opodeldokem. 'Kterýho Ferdinanda, paní Müllerová?' otázal se Švejk, nepøestávaje si masírovat kolena, 'já znám dva Ferdinandy. Jednoho, ten je sluhou u drogisty Prùši a vypil mu tam jednou omylem láhev nìjakého mazání na vlasy, a potom znám ještì Ferdinanda Kokošku, co sbírá ty psí hovínka. Vobou není žádná škoda.' 'Ale, milostpane, pana arcivévodu Ferdinanda, toho z Konopištì, toho tlustýho, nábožnýho:' 'Ježíšmarjá, ' vykøikl Švejk, 'to je dobrý. A kde se mu to, panu arcivévodovi, stalo?' ; '‘So they’ve killed Ferdinand, ’ said the charwoman to Mr Schweik who, having left the army many years before, when a military medical board had declared him to be chronically feeble-minded, earned a livelihood by the sale of dogs – repulsive mongrel monstrosities for whom he forged pedigrees. Apart from this occupation, he was afflicted with rheumatism, and was just rubbing his knees with embrocation. ‘Which Ferdinand, Mrs Müller?’ asked Schweik, continuing to massage his knees. ‘I know two Ferdinands. One of them does jobs for Prusa the chemist, and one day he drank a bottle of hair oil by mistake; and then there’s Ferdinand Kokoska who goes round collecting manure. They wouldn’t be any great loss, either of ‘em.’ ‘No, it’s the Archduke Ferdinand, the one from Konopiste, you know Mr Schweik, the fat, pious one.’ ‘Good Lord!’ exclaimed Schweik, ‘that’s a fine thing. And where did this happen?’...”; First published, under the title: 'Osudy dobrého vojàka Švejka za svìtové války', 1921 - 1923; First UK edition, under the title: 'The Good Soldier Schweik', London, Heinemann, 1930, translated by Paul Selver; First US edition, Doubleday, Doran & Company, Garden City, New York, 1930; Charles Boni, 448 pp.; Italian edition, under the title: 'Il buon soldato Sc'vèik', Milano, Feltrinelli, 1966, translated by Bruno Meriggi, 358 pp., Film version: 'Svejk v Ruskem zajeti' (Schweik in Russian captivity'), Czechoslovakia, 1926, directed by Svatopluk Innemann, starring: Karel Noll, Ferenc Futurista, Jan W.
