A Dictionary of the Central European Novel

Summary/Abstract: “The Dictionary of the 20th Century Central European Novel” (Dicţionarul romanului central-european din secolul XX) is a forthcoming reference book edited by Adriana Babeți, the result of a collective effort of scholars affiliated with the Third Europe Foundation, Timișoara, a project carried out in more than 20 years. The book includes scholarly articles about 250 novels, written by 197 authors. As coauthors of the Dictionary, with an expertise on Hungarian and comparative literary studies, we discuss the theoretical background of the Dictionary, presenting the contexts of its creation. Through some examples we present how the volume conceives and defines the idea of Central Europe, and how it circumscribes the specific values and themes of the region.
