GABOR VADERNA: TRAUMA AND MODERNITY. LOCAL AWARENESS OF SALONTA vs. THE CAREER OF A HUNGARIAN 19th CENTURY POET

Summary/Abstract: Modernity brings a reinterpretation of historical traumas. The volume written by Gabor Vaderna presents the intellectual life of the town of Salonta in the 19th century, marked by the activity of the poet Arany János, who moved to Budapest in the autumn of 1860 after his election to the Academy. A chapter deals with the poet's posterity, the reception of his work and his personality, under the title "Cult and Memory: Private and Public Images of Arany János". The study was conducted based on consulting 5 archival collections and 137 titles of primary and secondary literature, providing a reliable way to understand the life and works of the poet Arany János, as well as the history of his multicultural hometown.
