The present volume was first published in Budapest, in 1992, by the Ráday Collection (Ráday Gy űjtemény).

    Nietzsche & Asian Philosophy Beyond Good and Evil—1 Beyond good and Evil Preface supposing truth is a woman philosophers like love-sick suitors who don’t understand the woman-truth central problem of philosophy is Plato’s error: denying perspective, the basic condition of all life On the Prejudices of Philosophers 1) questioning the will to truth who is it that really wants truth? What in us wants truth? Why not untruth? 2) origin of the will to truth out of the will to untruth, deception can anything arise out of its opposite? A dangerous questioning? Nietzsche sees new philosophers coming up who have the strength for the dangerous “maybe.” Note in general Nietzsche’s preference for the conditional tense, his penchant for beginning his questioning with “perhaps” or “suppose” or “maybe.” In many of the passages throughout this book Nietzsche takes up a perspective which perhaps none had dared take up before, a perspective to question what had seemed previously to be unquestionable. He seems to constantly be tempting the reader with a dangerous thought experiment. This begins with the questioning of the will to truth and the supposition that, perhaps, the will to truth may have arisen out of its opposite, the will to untruth, ignorance, deception. 3) the supposition that the greater part of conscious thinking must be included among instinctive activities Nietzsche emphasizes that consciousness is a surface phenomenon conscious thinking is directed by what goes on beneath the surface contrary to Plato’s notion of pure reason, the conscious

The dissertation will look at the idea in several ways to elucidate the depth and complexity of the idea. First, it will be looked at through its evolution, as it began as an idea early in Nietzsche’s career and reached its full complexity at the end of his career with the planned publication of his Revaluation of All Values, just before the onset of his madness. Several questions will be explored: What is the nature of the revaluator who is supposed to be instrumental in the process of revaluation? What will the values after the revaluation be like (a rebirth of ancient values or creation of entirely new values)? What will be the scope of the revaluation? And what is the relation of other major ideas of Nietzsche’s (will to power, eternal return, overman, and amor fati) to the revaluation? Different answers to these questions will be explored.

  • Hypochondria As a Poetic Disease: Medicine and Ethics in the Case Of
    Hungarian Historical Review 10, no. 2 (2021): 189–210 Hypochondria as a Poetic Disease: Medicine and Ethics in the Case of an Early Nineteenth-Century Hungarian Poet Gábor Vaderna Eötvös Loránd University / Research Centre for the Humanities [email protected] Medical knowledge reached a wider range of social strata in the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. Popular medical books described diseases and how to cure them, and the press regularly addressed the topic of having a healthy body. Meanwhile, representations of the perfect body became an increasingly important problem for neoclassical art. This case study investigates how Dániel Berzsenyi (1776–1836), one of the important Hungarian poets of the early nineteenth century, thought about the human body. For him, the representation of the body was, on the one hand, an artistic problem which raised questions concerning manners of imitation and, on the other hand, an artistic problem which was associated with the display of human virtues and thus with ethical discourse. Berzsenyi gave an account of his illnesses, which can be traced back to hypochondria, in a private letter. His self-analysis has three layers. First, his private letter could be read as part of a sensible epistolary novel. I argue that Berzsenyi introduced himself as a sensible hero, who was ill because of his own uncontrollable emotions. Second, hypochondria has a medical context. Considering the continued influence, in Berzsenyi’s time, of the ancient doctrine of bodily fluids, I demonstrate that this disease may have become a mental illness associated with poets. The reason for this is that the emotions entertained by the sensible man led to the emergence of physical symptoms which were associated with the hardly definable concept of hypochondria.

Abstract The relationship between magyarization and Hungarian civil society during the reform era of Hungarian history (1790-1848) is the subject of this dissertation. This thesis examines the cultural and political activities of three liberal oppositional nobles: András Fáy (1786-1864), István Bezerédj (1796-1856) and Ödön Beöthy (1796-1854). These three men were chosen as the basis of this study because of their commitment to a two- pronged approach to politics: they advocated greater cultural magyarization in the multiethnic Hungarian Kingdom and campaigned to extend the protection of the Hungarian constitution to segments of the non-aristocratic portion of the Hungarian population.

  • Sociolinguistics of Translation
    Studia Slavica Hung. 52/1–2 (2007) 229–234 DOI: 10.1556/SSlav.52.2007.1-2.33 Sociolinguistics of translation KINGA KLAUDY ELTE Fordító- és Tolmácsképző Központ, Budapest, Múzeum krt. 4/F, H-1088 E-mail: [email protected] (Received: 1 September 2006; accepted: 16 October 2006) Abstract: The paper describes how sociolinguistics, revealing the relationship between language and society independently of translation, provides scientifically well-founded descriptions of the relationship between the source language and source language society, and the target language and the target language society, and might thus contribute to exploring the objective rules behind the translators’ decisions. Keywords: pragmatic adaptation, translation of dialects, translation of realia, untrans- latability, intercultural translation policy 1. The concept of pragmatic adaptation The history of thinking about translation has never failed to recognise the social importance of translation. In the history of translation in Hungary, especially in the 18th century (in the works of János Batsányi, Ferenc Kazinczy, György Bessenyei), thoughts on the social relevance of translation gained much more importance than the linguistic exploration of translation (on the Hungarian tradition see Radó in Baker 1998: 448–453). What is called in today’s modern terminology pragmatic adaptation (Neu- bert 1968), i. e. the adaptation of the translated work to the needs of the target language audience, has never been better accomplished than in the case of András Dugonics in 1807, who placed Voltaire’s Zadig into a Hungarian context under the title Cserei, egy honvári herceg, into 10th-century Hungary, the era of Taksony vezér (i. e. Taksony chief) (Dugonics 1807, 1975).

  • A Media Event Event
    THE DEATH OF MARX: A MEDIA EVENT EVENT The 'new philosophers '. have enjoyed a recent intense vogue in France, 1 and have even provoked interest in the English speaking press - I have read articles on them in The Sunday Times, The Observer,observer, Encounter and Time magazine. on examination, they appear to be saying very little, so it is interesting to ask what their value is for the foreign press. It will be seen that I too treat them in a 'journalistic' rather than a serious academic fashion, and that this is, in fact, unavoidable. Nevertheless, whilst of little intrinsic interest, the new philosophers are illustrative ofof·two two problems, both of which are of some import. The first is that in French political and culturalculturaJ thought all problems and debates exist within a framework marked by two reference points - the' legislative elections in March 1978, and May 1968. These points are !'\ptApt symmetrical; however, they do mark the beginning and the end of the present •'epoch'.epoch'. The new philosophers are only possible v,i thin this framewor:j.{. The second is of a different order, and concerns the relations of intEll­ini;Ell­ lectuals to journalism, and the changes that these relations have bee~ undergoing.

Demarcated area (b) Single document heading affected: Demarcated geographical area (c) Reasons: — The Wine Community Council of the Kunság Region (Kunsági Borvidék Hegyközségi Tanácsa) amended the product specification for the ‘Kunság/Kunsági’ PDO. The areas of the municipalities of Kömpöc, Petőfiszállás, Pálmonostora and Újszilvás classified as Class I and II according to the vineyard cadastre of wine-producing regions were added to the demarcated area. The change affects the demarcated area in the product specification for the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO and has been included in this application. The characteristics of the areas included in the vineyard cadastre correspond to the demarcated area of the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO. Vine-growing is one of the traditional economic activities of local inhabitants. The classification of the wine region and the possibility to produce the ‘Duna/Dunai’ PDO generates significant employment and income in these municipalities and contributes greatly towards the local tourism industry.
