Jan Onufry Zagłoba is a fictional character in the Trilogy by Henryk Sienkiewicz.

Background

Supposedly born about 1600, Zagłoba appears in With Fire and Sword (Ogniem i Mieczem) and The Deluge (Potop), and plays an offstage role (due to his age) in Colonel Wolodyjowski (Pan Wolodyjowski).

Zagłoba is often considered both a comic figure as well as the voice of patriotic conscience in the Trilogy. Some critics compare him to the Shakespearian character of Falstaff because of his propensity for drinking and telling exaggerated tales of his youthful adventures. Nevertheless, he is very intelligent and cunning. He is said to be the alter-ego of Sienkiewicz's father in-law, who held all the characteristics of Zagłoba.

His coat of arms is Wczele or Zagłoba.
