From 1618 to 1848, the great, the Thirty Years' War was raging.
It laid cities and villages in ashes, forests, fields and convictions.
It had begun as a struggle of conscience.
Reformation against Catholicism, permanent freedom against the Empire.
Soon no one knew what it was about, and the war was raging to eat.
The proud armies under Gustav Adolf, Tilli, Wallenstein were helpless.
They plundered and shamed the land,
slaughtered, hanged, starved, frozen, tortured to death,
and crept at the test.
No side had the strength to win the decisive battle.
When the war finally broke out, Germany was half-depopulated.
Nothing meaningful was left behind.
Only broken people, a desolate earth, a deified world.
My life's beginning was particularly cruel.
A dull youth in the peasant's village and two short years of teaching at a poor settlement
had been enough to make me the famous Calf of Hanau,
the court nanny of the fat governor.
In the besieged fortress I would soon be starved to death
and the escape to the Croats outside had made my situation much more unbearable.
The desert guys chased my friend Herzboder away,
his old father and I myself once got one over the head and lay for four weeks
on life and death.
His siege is terrible.
Sometimes there's an attack,
and a few people fall.
But otherwise...
nothing at all.
You have your calf from Hanau, Mr. Oberst.
It's healthy again.
Yes.
Hey, you!
Come here!
Do you hear that?
Is that a cold?
That's water.
Drink it up!
I can't, Mr. Bofors.
And why not?
Drink up!
You've done this joke six times in the last two hours!
Then at least come up with a funny line, Mr. Oberst Langwald.
My joke is in six buckets of water.
Excuse me, Mr. Hubbard, I think the pool is muddy.
I think you should put on more clothes.
Yes, yes.
You are my property.
I don't like it when someone says my sack is muddy.
Wait a minute, Bircher. I'll polish you up tomorrow.
Oh, God, how hot!
I longed for the peace and quiet that I enjoyed in my barn and in my home.
