The First Nyugat Generation and the Politics of Modern Literature: Budapest, 1900-1918 Maxwell Staley 2009 Central European University, History Department Budapest, Hungary Supervisor: Gábor Gyáni Second Reader: Matthias Riedl In partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Arts CEU eTD Collection 2 Copyright in the text of this thesis rests with the Author.

Further copies made in accordance with such instructions may not be made without the written permission of the Author. CEU eTD Collection 3 Abstract This thesis investigates the connections between arts and politics in fin-de-siècle Hungary, as expressed in the writings of the First Nyugat Generation. Various elements of the cultural debate in which the Nyugat writers participated can illustrate the complexities of this relationship. These are the debate over the aesthetics of national literature, the urban-versus-rural discourse, and the definition of the national community. Through close reading of the Nyugat group’s writings on these topics, two themes are explored, relating to the ambivalence with which the Nyugat writers implemented their project of westernizing Hungarian culture. The first is the dominant presence of the nationalist discourse within an ostensibly cosmopolitan endeavor. This fits in with a general artistic trend of Hungarian modernism, and can be explained with reference to the ambiguous position of Hungary within Europe and the subsequent complexities present in the national discourse. -

Chapter 8 THE LATE QUATERNARY PALEOECOLOGY AND ENVIRONMENTAL HISTORY OF HORTOBÁGY, A UNIQUE MOSAIC ALKALINE STEPPE FROM THE HEART OF THE CARPATHIAN BASIN Pál Sümegi1,2,, Gábor Szilágyi3, Sándor Gulyás1, Gusztáv Jakab4 and Attila Molnár3 1University of Szeged, Department of Geology and Paleontology, Szeged, Hungary 2Institute of Archeology, Hungarian Academy of Science, Budapest, Hungary 3Headquaters of the Hortobágy National Park, Debrecen, Hungary 4University of Szent István, Tessedik Campus, Szarvas, Hungary ABSTRACT The first national park in Hungary was established in 1973 in the area of Hortobágy with the aim of protecting dry and humid alkaline steppe areas and concomitant fauna. In 1999 the Hortobágy National Park was included in the world heritage list of the UNESCO. The outstanding importance of the park comes from dominantly non-arboreal, steppe vegetation harboring a unique avifauna and highly variable alkaline and chernozem soils displaying a complex mosaic-like spatial patterning. -

Precipitation in the Carpathian Basin
TEMPORALTEMPORAL ANDAND SPATIALSPATIAL CHANGESCHANGES OFOF CLIMATECLIMATE ELEMENTSELEMENTS ININ HUNGARYHUNGARY PRECIPITATIONPRECIPITATION © As the climate of Hungary tends to drought , temporal and spatial distribution of precipitation has of special importance in agriculturala nd ecological point of view . © Precipitation in Hungary is generally less than the requirement of vegetation . A csapad ék által ában kevesebb, mint a veget áci ó ig énye. The climatic water balance is negative in the substantial part of the country. Mean monthly and annual sums of precipitation in Hungary, mm, 1961-1990 station year Temporal dynamics of precipitation © The annual cozrse of precipitation shows double wave . Minimum precipitation falls in January . This is due to the low vapour pressure and frequent anticyclonic large -scale weather situations (Siberian maximum). © Most of the precipitation falls between May to July . This may be associated with the maximum vapour pressure , near the Medard cyclone activity , and the intensifying convection . © Maximum precipitation shows slight temporal delays in different regions of the country . © In the Transdanubian Hills and the Bakony area the most precipitation occurs in May , in West Hungary in July , while in the major part of the country in June . Temporal dynamics of precipitation © A secondary maximum of precipitation can also be observed at autumn (October -November ) in South Dun ánt úl and in the south - east slopes of Dun ánt úli Medium-high Mountains . © It comes from the rains of warm fronts of the Mediterranean cyclones (Genoa cyclones ) originating from Ligurian sea area . © It is not uncommon that , due to abundant autumn rains , winter hal - year is wetter (in 20 -30% of the cases ). -
