Литературна критика в Унгария през XX век

Author(s): / Language(s): Bulgarian

This book gives an opportunity for a different view of Hungarian essayism. Literature is always framed within a certain input language and the critics, except the translators, are the ones that are making certain title known in an output language. The essays in this book give a chance for everyone that is interested in Hungarian literature to receive new information and topics that sometimes show similarities in Bulgarian literature.

Od idylli do ironii. Literatura węgierska wobec Zagłady w latach 1944-1948

Author(s): Kinga Piotrowiak-Junkiert / Language(s): Polish

This is the first monograph in Polish devoted to Hungarian-Jewish Holocaust literature from the years 1944-1948. The theoretical part of the publication presents the situation of this literature in its heyday, models of Jewish biographies in Hungary, the evolution of texts focusing on the Jewish question, and the metaphor of being a Jew in the Danube lands in interwar essays and prose. The interpretation section presents selected literary works by authors such as Terez Rudnóy, Miklós Radnóti, Erno Szep, Istvan Órkeny, and Istvan Vas, as well as ghetto literature. The texts subjected to meticulous analysis represent the successive experiences of writers of Jewish origin: forced labour in Serbia and on the Eastern Front, concentration camps, large ghettos, international ghettos, internment camps. The interpretation part uses contemporary research methodology (e.g. gender and ecocritical reading). What is also of significance is the fact that the author of this book is Polish, has authored another important and widely commented work, Świadomość zwrócona przeciwko sobie samej. Imre Kertesz wobec Zagłady (Consciousness Turned Against Itself. Imre Kertész Versus the Holocaust), is a Polish scholar, translator from Hungarian (including Kertesz's prose), essayist and poet. All her competences intertwine tightly in her latest work and become the basis of a book that will attract the non-professional reader and be of outstanding scientific value.

„AKI DUDÁS AKAR LENNI...” – HÁBORÚS (TEST)BESZÉD DANYI ZOLTÁN A DÖGELTAKARÍTÓ CÍMŰ REGÉNYÉBEN

Author(s): Krisztina Busa / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

Based on the novel by Zoltán Danyi published in 2015, the study focuses on the experience of the Yugoslav Wars in the 1990s as a crisis experience. The novel’s protagonist is an anonymous former Hungarian soldier from Vojvodina who, 10–15 years after the events, recalls the war and his post-war years in a stream of consciousness. The protagonist’s unconcealed, tormenting physical reactions are depicted in unusual detail in the novel, which also uses raw, vulgar, and explicit language. The first part of the analysis shows, through selected scenes, a number of divisive mechanisms at social and individual levels that give rise to radicalization. In the second part, it asks about the possibilities of a way forward for the physically and mentally burdened protagonist.

A HÁBORÚ ÉS A MÁGIKUS REALISTA ÍRÁSMÓD VISZONYA DARVASI LÁSZLÓ SZEREZNI EGY NŐT CÍMŰ NOVELLÁSKÖTETÉBEN

Author(s): Róbert Fancsali / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

A part of László Darvasi’s prose, but mainly the novel entitled A könnymutatványosok legendája (The Legend of the Artists of Cry), is usually interpreted as magical realism. In this paper, I will prove that a volume of short stories published in 2000, so right after the mentioned book, can also be read as magical realism; however, short stories are barely taken in consideration when speaking about this genre (or writing method, as Tamás Bényei and I understand it). This volume entitled Szerezni egy nőt (Getting Hold of a Woman) presents weird love (or erotic) stories having the Yugoslav War in the background. I believe that the typical magical realist narrator’s attributes are perfectly appropriate to handle such a difficult situation when you have to speak about love (or erotic human relations at least) and war at the same time but still keep the stories somehow easy-going.

EGYÉNI ÉS KOLLEKTÍV TRAUMÁK TOMPA ANDREA REGÉNYEIBEN

Author(s): Zsuzsa Tapodi / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

The novels of Andrea Tompa, a writer born in Cluj-Napoca, depict the turning events of the recent past in Transylvania. The story of the autobiographical novel A hóhér háza. Történetek az aranykorból [The Hangman’s House. Stories from the Golden Age] (2010) presents the last stage of the communist dictatorship. The novel Fejtől s lábtól. Kettő orvos Erdélyben [Head to Feet. Two Doctors in Transylvania] (2013) describes the first decades of the 20th century, and Omerta. Hallgatások könyve [Omerta. The Book of Silences] (2017) depicts the atmosphere of the fifties. The last work, entitled Haza [Home] (2020), is focused on migration processes presented with the help of various narrators. This essay examines the personal and collective traumas depicted in the works, the system of how the heroes were reduced to silence, and their attempts to escape.

HERCZEG FERENC NYELVI ÉLETÚTJA

Author(s): Laura Sájter / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

The unique life of Ferenc Herczeg, who was a forbidden author between 1945 and 1980, can be summed up in a nutshell as follows: how the German-speaking boy from the Banat Swabian region becomes the Hungarian playwright who put Hungarian drama on the path to European success, a committed writer of national endeavours, and the creator of a successful Hungarian prose and dramatic oeuvre. The subject of the research is to explain where and how Ferenc Herczeg’s “language programme” became so successful, since “There was no other native speaker who learned Hungarian so well as Ferenc Herczeg” (Hegedűs). Examining the language path, the research may explain the adaptation considered to be the key to success and the contribution of the author’s bilingualism to the foundation of success. In the case of Herczeg, social, cultural, and linguistic assimilation is so successful that it gives rise to countless speculations. The majority of criticism seeks the social adaptation and reflects less on linguistic assimilation. My aim is to prove that Herczeg, a German-speaking boy of Swabian descent, became Hungarian because of literature-centric Hungarian culture.

ADALÉKOK A MENEKÜLTIRODALOMHOZ – TOLNAI OTTÓ MENEKÜLTÜGYEI

Author(s): Anikó Novák / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

The paper attempts to interpret the literary representations of the refugee crisis based on the relevant texts of Ottó Tolnai. The author’s works constantly reflect on current social phenomena, so the refugees who are still present on the Hungarian–Serbian border also play an important role in his volumes entitled Nem könnyű [Not Easy] and Szeméremékszerek [Pubic Jewellery]. Tolnai generally interprets things in unusual ways, so in these works he views migrants as an opportunity rather than a danger. Building on postcolonial theories, the paper deals with issues such as migrant, stranger, border crossing, refugee literature, and migrant literature. Furthermore, the study compares the analysed texts with relevant works of Hungarian and world literature from the perspectives of refugee issues.

A SOKNYELVŰSÉG, MEGÉRTÉS, MŰFAJ MIKSZÁTH KÁLMÁN KÍSÉRTET LUBLÓN CÍMŰ REGÉNYÉBEN

Author(s): Csaba Szentgyörgyi / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

Ghost in Lublo (1893) is a typical novel from Kálmán Mikszáth. The edited and arranged text of the novel is referred to itself and it becomes the main characteristic feature besides that the approach and frame of reference are inco-ordinate relation, instead of being predominant, to the detriment of each other. The fact that there is no tangible verdict or sentiment means the lack of the absolute and undisputed standpoint in the fiction allowed by the unreliable narrative structure. (Similar novels in regard to it are: Black Town, Speaking Gown, St. Peter’s Umbrella, and Siege of Beszterce.) The interpretation of the novel stays unfinished as we cannot decide whether the novel is a detective story or a ghost story. The importance of dialogue is emphasized through the novel in numerous linguistic features, cultural and literary references, and the several possible interpretations of the novel.

The study is an introduction to a research into the processes and phenomena of genre formation in the Hungarian literature in Vojvodina. It analyses the aspects of the linguistic constitution of canal-, town-, family-, and cultural historical novels, principally the multicultural identity and phenomenon of translinguistic experience. It looks closely at accounts, essays, short stories, novels, poetic accounts, and emblematic poems that reflect on and elaborate this phenomenon.

A MAGYAR TÖRTÉNELEM IDEGEN KULTÚRTÉRBEN

Author(s): Erika Bence,Ferenc Németh / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

Károly Kisfaludy’s work Tihamér belongs to the Hungarian heroic novels written under the influence of German chivalric novels, at the same time being “the first modest attempt in Hungarian historical novels” (Heinrich 1907: 23.) as well as “the best Hungarian historical short story before Jósika” (Szinnyei 1911: 152). From the aspect of our study, the purposeful choice and literary structuring of the historically authentic framework (the expedition against Naples by Louis the Great of Hungary) bears great importance since with this framework – a sentimental account common and conventional in the epics of the period – novelty was introduced into contextual reading. By choosing this historical period and by its projection onto the chivalric story, it not only presents the recipient with definite genre-interpreting instructions, but it also influences the secondary levels of semantics by comparing the age of Louis the Great and the actual time of the narration: it mobilizes one of the important genre-creating aspects of the historical novel, the past-related “questioning with relation to the present”.

PANTEONIZÁCIÓ ÉS VIZUÁLIS REPREZENTÁCIÓ

Author(s): Tibor Porkoláb / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

My study tries to call attention on the connection of "pantheonization" (that is the lingual and non-lingual rites accompanying the admittance of an author in the national pantheon) and its visual representation which is regulated by the community. The reception of the idea of pantheon in Hungary in the 19th century illustrates the connection between great authors and their cult as great men, the institutional ceremonies dedicated to their memory, the idealization of their portraits.

"RÁKÓCZI, AKÁRKI, JÖJJÖN VALAHÁRA!"

Author(s): György Tverdota / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

The study of cults helps in solving special poetical problems, too. My lecture dedicated to Endre Ady's so called "kurucos" poems, tries to determine a formula of the connection between poetical events and those of a cult. The latter is not unknown for the contemporary reader who hasn't heard about Kálmán Thaly's not exactly legitim procedure. How he tried to raise the level of our not too worthy kuruc poetry by help of his own, that is false "kuruc" poems? As a conclusion I quote a poem by Ady written under the influence of Thaly.

AZ ADY-KULTUSZ HATÁSA AZ INDULÓ ERDÉLYI MAGYAR IRODALOM IDENTITÁSTUDATÁRA

Author(s): Susana Monica Tapodi / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

Endre Ady is connected to Transylvania by his birthplace, his school years (Carei, Zalău), the beginning of his career as a journalist in Oradea. Following the First World War, the Hungarian literature of Transylvania looked on his recently ended work as a model. The Hungarian literature of Transylvania in this epoch is more tolerant and progressive than the one of Hungary. Ady's cult manifested itself in pamphlets and monographs, as well as in memorial houses. In literary life it fostered the prophet role inherited from romanticism.

AZ ERDÉLYI KÖLTŐ ─ A REMÉNYIK-KULTUSZ FELÍVELÉSE ÉS MEGTÖRÉSE

Author(s): Béla Pomogáts / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

Sándor Reményik's poetry was subject of cult already in his lifetime and got to be rapidly canonized. His cult revived following the poet's sudden death in 1941. Babits's early study emphasized the ethical, collective values of his work. However, these values are not of aesthetical nature. After 1947 the poet was rejected vehemently by the so-called class-conscious internationalism. His works were republished after 1980 by religious publishers, and found his way back to general acceptance in the nineties. Nevertheless, his entire oeuvre hasn't been published so far.

KORABELI ROMÁN KRITIKA A SZÉKELYFÖLD LEÍRÁSÁRÓL

Author(s): Árpád Kémenes / Language(s): Hungarian Publication Year: 0

In 1874, the Romanian periodical Transilvania published two articles that criticized the last volume of Orbán Balázs’s A Székelyföld leírása (Description of Szeklerland) that had just been published. The first part of the present paper expounds on the reception of the volume in Hungarian papers and journals of the period. The second part aims to present the arguments through which the author of the articles (probably George Bariţiu) refutes the parts of Orbán Balázs’s monography that present Romanians in negative terms. The quotations from Orbán’s work provide an insight into the image of Romanians among Hungarians, while the ones taken from the articles show the way Romanians regard Hungarians and themselves. The extracts quoted also reflect on the ethnic relations that had an impact on everyday life between the Austro-Hungarian Compromise of 1867 and World War I.
