56 interjú az 1970-es évekből

Author(s): Tímea Berki / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: III/2016

The Hungarian Bibliography of Romanian Literature, a bilingual publication edited by Sámuel Domokos in the 70s is an inevitable manual of the researchers interested or specialized in the domain of the Romanian–Hungarian literary relations. It was published in two volumes and contains bibliographical titles from the period between 1831 and 1970. Recognizing the necessity of continuing this bibliography, within the framework of a more complex research I’m going to collect and analyze the titles from the next decade, from the 70s. The present paper presents this researching and analyzing process, publishing the first results of the collected data’s analysis. One of the most important realizations in the Romanian–Hungarian contactology from the 70s is connected with the name of the writer engaged in sociography, György Beke, being the first who published a volume of interviews on this topic. The conversations, 56 in number, earlier published in the daily paper called Előre, respectively in the periodicals A Het and Igaz Szó, came out in a volume at Kriterion publishing house that was responsible for the literature of the minorities living in Romania. This study interprets this volume, while focusing on the followings: the aspects of its content, the (re)construction of the interpersonal relationships between the intellectuals interviewed, the characteristics of the interview as genre, the volume’s contemporary reception, as well as the medial change of the published texts. While analyzing the functioning of the relations between the Hungarian and Romanian literature, the study also considers the context of the 70s, being problematic due to the ideologies.

This paper studies the spiritual exercise written by Wilhelm Fesenmayr, appeared in 1710 with the title: Betrachtung und Exercitien-Buch fur die Geistliche, Gott-verlobte Closter-Jungfrauen. Th is book was translated to Hungarian by a nun called Anna Terézia Viczay in 1720 (Az elmélkedéseknek és lelki foglalatosságoknak könyve). This eight-day-long exercise is based on meditations, which usually are inspired from the everyday life of the Poor Clares. We are studying the role of the imagination and the use of the senses in this book: how is it connected to the Ignatian tradition and how it becomes special being adapted for the nuns.

Hotel Europa – Útban az Európa Házhoz?

Author(s): Michael M. Thoss / Language(s): Hungarian Issue: 97/2015

Aki belép Tiranában a két csillagos Európa Hotelbe, rögtön magával ragadja ennek a szállodának a retrofuturista enteriőrje. Fehér műbőr és króm fonódik itt össze kanapékká és forgószékekké, amelyek fémes felületein meg-megcsillannak a hotel bárjának váltakozó színű fényei. Vajon milyen üzenettel fogadja a vendéget a szállodának ez az ufószerű előcsarnoka? Az illető az imént még ott állt a hotel muskátlis erkélyeivel inkább tisztes egyszerűséget sugárzó homlokzata előtt a Rruga Myslym Shyri eleven bevásárlóutcájának második hátsó udvarában. Még a fülében cseng, ahogy a taxisofőr albánul szitkozódik a kátyúkkal teli úton, amelyről visszafordulni sem lehet. De pillanatnyilag elfeledkezik a vakolatlan bérházakból álló környékről, amint belép a űrhajóra emlékeztető szállodahallba. Itt egy közelgő és már-már beteljesült jövő ígérete lebeg a levegőben: „Ha egyszer majd Európához tartozunk…”

Jean le Preux dans des almanachs hongrois du 18ème siècle et ses réapparitions de nos jours au théâtre

Author(s): Éva Vámos / Language(s): French Issue: 1/2013

This essay tackles the 18th century trashy literature sources on János (John) the Warrior and János (John) Háry. These works have been made attractive by the specific symbiosis of the reality with elements of the miraculous. János (John) the Warrior by Sándor Petőfi and János (John) Háry by Zoltán Kodály have been popular from the very beginning and this success is still vivid up to now. It is also important from the point of view of Hungarian-French relations by referring to five literary translations, a number of literaty analyses, as well as theatre performances in the frankophone countries.

Inspirace východní filozofií v tvorbě Bohumila Hrabala

Author(s): Joanna Królak,Piotr Ślusarczyk / Language(s): Czech Issue: 46/2014

The article is concerned with the identification and assessment of elements of Eastern philosophy in the works of Bohumil Hrabal (1914–1997). The works Prokopnutý buben (A drum kicked in), Krásná Poldi (Lovely Poldi), Bambini di Praga 1947, Zdivočelá kráva (The feral cow), Ostře sledované vlaky (CloselyWatched Trains), Kouzelná flétna (The Magic Flute), Autíčko (Toy car), and Inaugurace a vnitřní monolog (Inauguration and interior monologue) present ideas that have their source in Buddhist philosophy, for example, the ubiquity of suffering, the illusory nature of the world, and the essential unity of all phenomena. Buddhist philosophy does not have an autonomous status in Hrabal’s work; rather, it is mediated by the works of Schopenhauer and, to a lesser degree, by the inspiration of literature, for example,T. S. Eliot’s TheWaste Land (1922). In this way, Hrabal enters the modernist stream of the reception of Buddhism, which first appeared in European thought in the nineteenth century. Buddhist motives form part of Hrabal’s artistic vision. In many places, they resist canonical interpretation.

Hrabalovo loučení s literaturou: prozaikova pozdní leporela

Author(s): Vladimír Novotný / Language(s): Czech Issue: 46/2014

The article focuses on the last period of Bohumil Hrabal’s (1914–1997) writing, particularly the late 1980s and early 1990s, when he was systematically developing distinctive essays mostly in the form of open letters. His late writing from this period was published in book form in 1990−94. Of his series of short works in prose, one would mention Listopadový uragán (The November hurricane), Aurora na mělčině (Aurora in the shallows), and Večerníčky pro Cassia (TV bedtime stories for Cassius). Of particular interest is Dopisy Dubence (Letters to Dubenka), a collection of stylized letters to April Gifford, an American student of Czech literature and language. Hrabal himself talked about his late writing as ‘literary journalism’. Critics often unflatteringly called these distinctive literary works postmoderně koncipovaná leporela – postmodern accordion-fold board books.

UNELE CONCEPŢII DESPRE PROZA SCURTĂ OSTMODERNĂ A LUI PAVEL GĂTĂIANŢU

Author(s): Virginia Popović / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 03/2016

Pavel Gătăianţu is a fascinating poet who transformed his unique multicultural experience into true literary masterpieces. As a representative of the Romanian minority in Serbia, he transferred the challenges and difficulties, as well as the magic of living in a clash of cultures in his pages of prose. All this is expressed in a beautiful but direct manner—emotions and thoughts are deep and naked, nothing is concealed or unnecessarily embellished. Pavel Gataiantu`s attitude varies between interrogative and space of political and social life, giving specific colour to his works. The concept of Europe is often seen in the work of Pavel Gătăianţu, denoting a place where he hoped for a better future.

SPAŢIU ŞI PEISAJ ÎN OPERA LITERARĂ A LUI MAXIME DU CAMP

Author(s): Diana-Ligia TUDOR / Language(s): French Issue: 03/2016

Maxime Du Camp became well known in the 19th century French literature not only as Gustave Flaubert’s close friend but also as an important photographer and a traveller-writer, author of many travalogues. In this paper we will explore the representation of nature and the types of landscapes that we have identified in the literary work of this writer, illustrating several French theories on landscape that enabled our approach.

MIRCEA ELIADE ŞI PRIMELE SALE ÎNCERCĂRI PUBLICISTICE

Author(s): Viviana Milivoievici / Language(s): Romanian Issue: 03/2016

The journalism has always aroused the interest of the scientists, in various domains. Before asserting themselves on a national and even universal level, many of the writers came into contact with the publicist activity, being attached to certain periodicals and training themselves for the later activity as writers. In this way their cultural destiny was set. Mircea Eliade was one of the Romanian intellectuals who permanently collaborated to the most important Romanian cultural publications of the time.Mircea Eliade’s first attempts in the domain of the journalism date back since the years 1924-1925.In the articles written by Mircea Eliade in his adolescence and youth, he approaches a different thematic field and a diverse space, from science up to literature, and from literature to people of culture.
