An Experiment for the Anthropological View of an Essentialist National Image

Summary/Abstract: The present study attempts to examine the internal mechanisms of the creation and reproduction processes of an essentialist national representation. It examines the stereotyped Hungarian image that was widely disseminated in the nineteenth century through the analysis of three examples of textual representation taken from the weekly paper entitled Vasárnapi Újság. The study aims to demonstrate characteristics of national representation practices, which facilitate a better understanding of the cultural logic of nation-building.
