Jaroslav Hašek (1883 -- 1923), one of the most distinctive personalities of Czech literature, became known mainly because of the creation of the Dobrý vojak Švejk (Good Soldier Švejk). On the occasion of the 100th anniversary of his birth and within the framework of the Museum of Czech Literature project in Prague, an overview of publications devoted to his life and work -- Bibliografie Jaroslava Haška (Bibliography of Jaroslav Hašek) -- was created. The bibliography entitled Jaroslav Hašek na Slovensku (Jaroslav Hašek in Slovakia), containing records of his life and work in the Slovak press from 1921 -- 1980, is a significant publication. The authors of the paper, this time on the occasion of the 100th anniversary of Hašek's death, present a personal bibliography of the writer for the years 1981 -- 2020. Based on an extensive overview of the publications, it is clear that Hašek was a personality whose message is, even today, applicable in many ways. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
