Smil Flaška of Pardubice (c. 1350 - 13 August 1403) was a Czech nobleman, writer, and Supreme Provincial Scribe [cs] of the Kingdom of Bohemia.

Smil Flaška spent his youth in the house of his uncle Arnošt of Pardubice.[1] Before 1367, he obtained a bachelor's degree at the University of Prague.[2] In the years 1384 and 1385 he was in a dispute with King Wenceslas IV, who declared his right to Pardubice as an escheat. The provincial court upheld Wenceslas's claim. Smil Flaška since developed an anti-royal attitude.[3]

Smil Flaška inherited the Pardubice and Rychmburk [cs] estates in 1390. On 10 January 1395, he joined the League of Lords.[3] From 1396 he was the Supreme Provincial Scribe and from 1403 he served as the governor of the Čáslav region.[2] He died in a battle against royalist supporters in Kutná Hora.[4]

[edit]

Smil Flaška was mentioned in the 2018 video game Kingdom Come: Deliverance. The game features the character Novice Siskin, a fictional son of Smil Flaška.[5] Smil Flaška's work New Council (Czech: Nová rada) can be read in game.
