Thanks for the examples, Esty! Anyway I think I will make it one of my objectives to get some English (and most of all, complete) edition of FC...

Everybody has to know him! Some of his poems have even been translated (yes, translating such kind of poems... but good for me, since I don't know any German) - and only as a curiosity, since I'm already talking about this, several of the translations had been even put into music by one Czech band, for instance: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IAGTF7ev5sA
