Istvan Hajnal from Estates to Classes 163
ISTVAN HAJNAL From Estates to Classes ABSTRACT This overview of the epochal Iransformation of Hungarian society from one of estates to one of classes has been translated from the author' s contribution to the probably best sythesis ofthe country' s history produced in inteTWar Hungary. 1 Even if-.fifty years after its writing-several details ( especially statistics) would need up-dating, it is such afine summary of the author's views on social history that it deserves a "renaissance," the more so as the founders of this joumal clzoseHajnal as their model for "doing history." Concerning the history of the nobility, Hajnal underlines the dijference between "western"development, in which the elites (such as the French nobility) acquired expertise to augment and replace their traditional privilege, and the Hungarian story, in which the growth of "professionalism" was badly retarded. The author investigates in detail the fate of landownership: its Iransformation from "feudal" to modern propeny, and points out that the over-all reforms-from Maria Theresa 's to the revolutionary changes in 1848-didnot solve all the problems, neither for the landowning nobles nor for the tenant Uobbdgy) peasants. It took decades oj Habsburg administration to son out many, though not all, of residual issues. Social classes based on the free play of forces and abilities instead of feudal (corporate, stCJndisch) restrictions-this great emancipating enterprise ofthe nineteenth century brought about the modern world with its marvelous achievements, never before seen in human development. However, the mere release of force may still Ieave society on a primitive Ievel. True class society may not develop even when stratification is engendered, not by crude force, but by legally regulated competition of economic and political interests. -

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. -
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). -
Characteristics of the West-Central-Bavarian Vowel System - a Comparison Between Adults and Children
Characteristics of the West-Central-Bavarian vowel system - a comparison between adults and children The West-Central-Bavarian (WCB) dialect, which is spoken in the south of Germany and in most parts of Austria, has often been a subject of research, due to its large vowel system with an astonishing number of diphthongs, that do not exist in the corresponding Standard language at all. Although there is a large amount of literature concerned with descriptions of the dialect, nearly all of it is based on impressionistic auditory descriptions (Zehetner, 1985; Merkle, 1976; Capell, 1979; Mansell, 1973a; Keller, 1961; Mansell, 1973a). While in the last decades systematic acoustic analyses on the Austrian side of the Bavarian dialect have been increasingly elaborated (Moosmüller et al.), the German side still remains largely unexplored. However, there is much evidence that Standard German (SG) is superimposed on German dialects, causing sound change in the respective dialects (e.g. Müller et al. (2001) for East-Franconian, Bukmaier & Harrington (2014) for Augsburg German). The goal of the current study was 1) to systematically measure some of the defining vowel characteristics of WCB for an acoustically based analysis of the Bavarian vowel system and 2) to investigate whether these characteristics are being preserved across generations or if there is a sound change in progress observable, in which young speakers show more standard characteristics than old on some attributes of vowels where Bavarian and the Standard are known to differ. The new concept for testing 2) is to combine synchronic and diachronic approaches in order to detect sound change. -

The Hungarian Historical Review
Hungarian Historical Review 5, no. 1 (2016): 5–21 Martyn Rady Nonnisi in sensu legum? Decree and Rendelet in Hungary (1790–1914) The Hungarian “constitution” was never balanced, for its sovereigns possessed a supervisory jurisdiction that permitted them to legislate by decree, mainly by using patents and rescripts. Although the right to proceed by decree was seldom abused by Hungary’s Habsburg rulers, it permitted the monarch on occasion to impose reforms in defiance of the Diet. Attempts undertaken in the early 1790s to hem in the ruler’s power by making the written law both fixed and comprehensive were unsuccessful. After 1867, the right to legislate by decree was assumed by Hungary’s government, and ministerial decree or “rendelet” was used as a substitute for parliamentary legislation. Not only could rendelets be used to fill in gaps in parliamentary legislation, they could also be used to bypass parliament and even to countermand parliamentary acts, sometimes at the expense of individual rights. The tendency remains in Hungary for its governments to use discretionary administrative instruments as a substitute for parliamentary legislation. Keywords: constitution, decree, patent, rendelet, legislation, Diet, Parliament In 1792, the Transylvanian Diet opened in the assembly rooms of Kolozsvár (today Cluj, Romania) with a trio, sung by the three graces, each of whom embodied one of the three powers identified by Montesquieu as contributing to a balanced constitution.1 The Hungarian constitution, however, was never balanced. The power attached to the executive was always the greatest. Attempts to hem in the executive, however, proved unsuccessful. During the later nineteenth century, the legislature surrendered to ministers a large share of its legislative capacity, with the consequence that ministerial decree or rendelet often took the place of statute law. -

Research Highlights
[CLIENT] Koler1802 IM1802153 8 May 2018 Research Highlights GOALS Research and work towards extending the ancestry of John (Janos) Koler (Kollar) who was born 12 October 1871 possibly in Somogy or Baranya, Hungary, and immigrated to the United States in 1903, dying in 1951 in Oak Creek, Colorado. Identify the ancestral home town in Hungary. Gather biographical information and historical context regarding the Koler family in Hungary and possible reasons for their immigration to America. PROGRESS Reviewed the information from the Kollar family’s 1904 passenger list. It indicated that their last residence was Somogy, Hungary. Determined that Somogy was the name of a town, as well as a nearby county, in Hungary. The residents of Somogy (town) attended Roman Catholic services in Szabolcs, Baranya, Hungary. Located the 1898 birth registration from Somogy for Janos Kollar, son of Janos Kollar and Maria Hencz. Obtained the 1895 Roman Catholic baptism from Szabolcs for Gyorgy Kollar. His father was incorrectly reported as Gyorgy Kollar and his mother was Maria Hencz. Discovered the marriage of Janos Kollar and Maria Hencz in 1894 in Szabolcs. The marriage record indicated that the bride and groom were both Roman Catholic and identified their parents. Janos was born in Somogy and Maria was born in the nearby city of Pécs. Found the 1871 baptism of the immigrant ancestor, Janos Kollar, along with the baptisms of his two sisters, Rosa and Elisabetha. Located the 1867 marriage record for their parents, Ferencz Kollar and Katalin Borsei. Both were 35 years old and widowed. This record included the names of their parents along with the names of their former spouses.
