Risultati di "Jaroslav Hasek" in Tutte le categorie

Das wohl berühmteste Buch der tschechischen Literatur ist untrennbar mit dem Lachen verbunden: Man lacht über die Naivität des Protagonisten, über seine Einfältigkeit und seine absurde Sprachkomik. Aber so blöde ist der Schwejk nicht, auch wenn es ihm amtsärztlich attestiert wurde. Der Schwejk hat vielmehr etwas Anarchistisches, Subversives an sich. Er hat Witz und Phantasie – und er ist es, der die Komik des ganzen kriegsgeilen Geschehens demaskiert.

A soldier in the First World War who never actually sees any combat, Josef Svejk is the awkward protagonist - and none of the other characters can quite decide whether his bumbling efforts to get to the front are genuine or not. Often portrayed as one of the first anti-war novels, Hasek's classic satire is a tour-de-force of modernist writing, influencing later writers such as Hemingway, Faulkner and Joseph Heller.

The Good Soldier Švejk, written shortly after the First World War, is one of the great antiwar satires - and one of the funniest books of the 20th (or any) century. In creating his eponymous hero, Jaroslav Hašek produced an unforgettable character who charms and infuriates and bamboozles his way through the conflagration that tore through the heart of Europe, upending empires and changing social history. It is the closing period of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The assassination at Sarajevo has just occurred and armies are on the march.

Throughout the long centuries of human history is the want, and the need, to share information, to exchange ideas and for that knowledge and experience, for curiosity and learning, to be the basis of a civil society.

Noch bevor der brave Soldat Schwejk in den Weltkrieg zog, versetzte er das österreichische Militär in Schrecken - nicht durch Widerstand, sondern durch allzu gutmütige Befolgung der Befehle. Man fürchtet sich vor ihm, weil er sich nicht fürchtet. Aber auch auf die Lebensbereiche Familie und Verbrechen wirft Hasek einen sehr satirischen Blick.

The rollicking humorous ribald story of soldiers in World War I carrying on and living and dying in war, worthy of Catch-22 fame. Translated from German into modern American English with a simplification of place names, as well as people's names, to not distract the American listener from unfamiliar names and places and stay focused on the story itself.
