SOURCE LANGUAGE

The worst thing is that we live in a contaminated moral environment. We fell morallyill because we became used to saying something different from what we thought. We

learned not to believe in anything, to ignore one another, to care only about ourselves.

Concepts such as love, friendship, compassion, humility or forgiveness lost their

depth and dimension, and for many of us they represented only psychological

peculiarities , or they resembled gone-astray greetings from ancient times , a little

ridiculous in the era of computers and spaceships. Only a few of us were able to cry

out loudly that the powers that be should not be all-powerful and that the special

farms, which produced ecologically pure and top-quality food just for them, should

send their produce to schools, children s homes and hospitals if our agriculture was

unable to offer them to all.

The previous regime -armed with its arrogant and intolerant ideology -reduced man to

a force of production, and nature to a tool of production. !n this it attac"ed both their

very substance and their mutual relationship. !t reduced gifted and autonomous

people, s"illfully wor"ing in their own country, to the nuts and bolts of somemonstrously huge, noisy and stin"ing machine, whose real meaning was not clear to

anyone. !t could not do more than slowly but ine#orably wear out itself and all its

nuts and bolts.

When ! tal" about the contaminated moral atmosphere , ! am not tal"ing just about the

gentlemen who eat organic vegetables and do not loo" out of the plane windows. ! am

tal"ing about all of us. We had all become used to the totalitarian system and accepted

it as an unchangeable fact and thus helped to perpetuate it. !n other words, we are all-though naturally to differing e#tents -responsible for the operation of the totalitarian

machinery. $one of us is just its victim. We are all also its co-creators.

Why do ! say this% !t would be very unreasonable to understand the sad legacy of the

last forty years as something alien, which some distant relative bequeathed to us. On

the contrary, we have to accept this legacy as a sin we committed against ourselves. !f

we accept it as such, we will understand that it is up to us all, and up to us alone to do

something about it. We cannot blame the previous rulers for everything, not only

because it would be untrue, but also because it would blunt the duty that each of us

faces today& namely, the obligation to act independently , freely, reasonably and

quic"ly. 'et us not be mista"en& the best government in the world, the best parliament

and the best president, cannot achieve much on their own. (nd it would be wrong to

e#pect a general remedy from them alone. )reedom and democracy include

participation and therefore responsibility from us all.

!f we reali*e this, then all the horrors that the new C*echoslova" democracy inherited

will cease to appear so terrible. !f we reali*e this, hope will return to our hearts.

!n conclusion, ! would li"e to say that ! want to be a president who will spea" less and

wor" more. To be a president who will not only loo" out of the windows of his

airplane but who, first and foremost, will always be present among his fellow citi*ens

and listen to them well.

+ou may as" what "ind of republic ! dream of. 'et me reply& ! dream of a republic

independent, free, and democratic, of a republic economically prosperous and yet

socially just in short, of a humane republic that serves the individual and that

therefore holds the hope that the individual will serve it in turn. Of a republic of well-

rounded people , because without such people it is impossible to solve any of our

problems --human, economic, ecological, social, or political.

The most distinguished of my predecessors opened his first speech with a quotationfrom the great C*ech educator omens". (llow me to conclude my first speech with

my own paraphrase of the same statement& eople, your government has returned to

you/

ANALYSIS

!ntroduction

Translation is an activity that refers to transformation of one language into other

language. Translation process is not easy because there is some conte#tual element

that must be defended in order to get the closest meaning. Translation in its purpose is

to produce a translated te#t that brings the actual meaning from the source language.

1eside on that, translation is also to achieve several insights about new culture. The

interpreter must be fully understood and well-comprehended about the source and the

target language.

The selected te#t is a phenomenal speech that including into one of the most powerful

speeches in the world. This is a speech from 9aclav 2avel, e#-president of C*ech

3epublic. This is his first speech after electing as the president. (ppreciations toward

this te#t have proven the quality of the te#t. This matter finally initiates the writer to

analy*e the te#t as well to get some new "nowledge.

with some adjustment in structural aspect. !t is frequently happen in any translation
