When both sides had already been fighting hard for almost four hours, a sizeable Turkish squad broke through the ruins of the walls [...] and into the city itself. Corvinus [...] hurried to his men urging them on and firing their enthusiasm. [...] Thanks to him our men found new strength to fight on and resisted the Turkish attack with great courage. [...] They fought till late in the evening when with the help of God Immortal a great charge by our men drove the enemy out of the city by the same way that they had entered.

  • Hungary's Policy Towards Its Kin Minorities
    Hungary’s policy towards its kin minorities: The effects of Hungary’s recent legislative measures on the human rights situation of persons belonging to its kin minorities Óscar Alberto Lema Bouza Supervisor: Prof. Zsolt Körtvélyesi Second Semester University: Eötvös Loránd Tudományegyetem, Budapest, Hungary Academic Year 2012/2013 Óscar A. Lema Bouza Abstract Abstract: This thesis focuses on the recent legislative measures introduced by Hungary aimed at kin minorities in the neighbouring countries. Considering as relevant the ones with the largest Hungarian minorities (i.e. Croatia, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia and Ukraine), the thesis starts by presenting the background to the controversy, looking at the history, demographics and politics of the relevant states. After introducing the human rights standards contained in international and national legal instruments for the protection of minorities, the thesis looks at the reasons behind the enactment of the laws. To do so the politically dominant concept of Hungarian nation is examined. Finally, the author looks at the legal and political restrictions these measures face from the perspective of international law and the reactions of the affected countries, respectively. The research shows the strong dependency between the measures and the political conception of the nation, and points out the lack of amelioration of the human rights situation of ethnic Hungarians in the said countries. The reason given for this is the little effects produced on them by the measures adopted by Hungary and the potentially prejudicial nature of the reaction by the home states. The author advocates for a deeper cooperation between Hungary and the home states. Keywords: citizenship, ethnic preference, Fundamental Law, home state, human rights, Hungary, kin state, minorities, nation, Nationality Law, preferential treatment,Status Law.

  • A TRANSYLVANIAN INTERLUDE on 11 June 1848 Dumitru Brătianu Had
    A TRANSYLVANIAN INTERLUDE On 11 June 1848 Dumitru Brătianu had received his accreditation as diplomatic agent in troubled Austria-Hungary, as the first diplomatic representative of modern Romania.221 Until then, Romanian interests abroad had been represented by officials of the Ottoman suzerain power. He travelled via Vienna, where the situation was confused after the collapse of the interim government led by Karl Ludwig von Fic- quelmont, and reached Pest in late June. Since March, under popular pressure, the Habsburg monarchy appeared to have imploded. Vienna as the official centre of power in the Empire was now challenged by Central European “staging-points in the multilateral contestation” during the events of 1848–49:222 Milan, Buda-Pest,223 Prague, Lemberg, Cracow, Timişoara, Braşov, Blaj and Cluj – to mention just a few of the cities engulfed by the protests – were all bursting with revolu- tionary ferment, political and territorial demands and potential multi- ethnic strife. Only one element in the confusing political landscape of 1848–49 remained stable: the now beleaguered Habsburg dynasty and the principle of dynastic loyalty as the pivotal centre of an otherwise explosive multi-national conundrum. After March and especially after the enactment of the April Laws by the Hungarian Diet, the new Hungarian regime had been operat- ing on the basis of a virtual, if brittle, parliamentary sovereignty and autonomy from Austria. A reformist Hungarian government led by Lajos Batthyány comprised the liberal István Széchenyi, the ‘roman- tic hero’ Lajos Kossuth and the ‘man of the future’, Ferenc Deák.224 Embedded within, and extending beyond, the complex network of constitutional, political, economic and military difficulties facing the empire was the thorny nationalities question.

  • HUNGARIAN STUDIES 15. No. 1. (2001)
    1848-1849 IN HUNGARY GÁBOR GÁNGÓ Vienna University, Vienna, Austria There can be no doubt that the Hungarian Revolution of 1848 and the subse­ quent war of independence belong to the events that significantly contributed to the development of modern Hungarian historical consciousness. Decisive alter­ natives emerged during this critical period: national sovereignty versus develop­ ment under foreign power, or the cultivation of friendly compromises reached through negotiations versus violent confrontations. The patterns of thinking asso­ ciated with these choices also imposed their influence on the interpretations of other recent historic turning points such as the events of 1956. For a better understanding of what happened to Hungary during the years 1848-1849 we need to divide the events into three distinct but interconnected spheres. First, we need to consider the discussions between the spokesmen of the last Hungarian feudal assembly, the Diet of 1847-1848, and the leaders connected to the court of Emperor Ferdinand I (as King of Hungary: Ferdinand V) (1835^48) in Vienna. These discussions were followed by the negotiations on the formation and recognition of an independent and responsible Hungarian govern­ ment in 1848. Second, we have to delineate the revolutionary mass movement organised by leftist and radical intellectuals in Pest on March 15,1848. Third, we need to examine the civil war, which began in autumn 1848, between the National Guard army of the Hungarian government, the Austrian troops, and the insurgents of the non-Magyar nationalities. Due to the expansion of the Turkish Empire and to the rise of the House Habsburg, the kingdom of Hungary, one of the leading states in East-Central Eu­ rope during the late Middle Ages, had lost its independence during the sixteenth century.

  • 1867 As the Year of Constitutional Changes Around the World
    ELJ_2017-2__press 2018.12.12. 16:34 Page 39 Balázs Rigó* 1867 as the Year of Constitutional Changes Around the World I Introduction and Methodology The composite jubilee of the year 1867 provides the topic for this paper. We will see how 1867 influenced both international relationships and constitutional changes through the world. The apparent and evident parallelism between Canada and Hungary because of the jubilee of 1867 gave the hint to examine other events of constitutional history. The significant changes in the form of government or constitution of a country have a great impact on the neighbour - ing countries and politics. This phenomenon was the root of our examination; namely to analyse the corresponding events and the constitutional changes closely relating to the Canadian and Hungarian changes with an eye to other determining and / or neighbouring countries in the international relationship. Our objective is therefore to describe the process of the changes of 1867, or more precisely, the second half of the 1860’s, mostly in a descriptive way, since Hungarian and / or other foreign readers may not be so well-read on the history of the other side of the world, as they are on their own history. After that, our other incentive is to make a comparison of the detailed processes of the constitutional development of the examined countries, with an eye to the formation of the alliances of the First World War, as the end of the old world order started in 1867. The combination of these incentives, namely the description of the events and the internal developments, and placing of these developments into the external, foreign relationships basically determines which countries are to be analysed.

    $$506 +,6725< Volume 1, Issue 2 (2002) 329–347 The structure and command system of the Hungarian army in the War of Independence of 1848–1849 TAMÁS CSIKÁNY Miklós Zrínyi National Defence University, Budapest, Hungary The War of Independence in 1848-1849 is one of the most glorious chapters in Hungarian history. The Hungarian Army, set up within a few months, managed to hold victory over one of the best armies of Europe of that time. The paper deals with the organizing, as well as the command and control system of the Hungarian Army. Special attention is paid to the organizing of the Home Defence (Honvéd) batallions, the most efficient units of the Hungarian Defence forces. Introduction The period of the revolution and war of independence of 1848–1849 is an outstanding and determining epoch in the history of Hungary. During this one and a half year time there were more changes in the country than there had been in the previous decades. The so called 1848 April Laws triggered irreversible social changes. The Hungarian administration and legislation were given an entirely different image by the activity of the government independent from the Vienna Court and responsible only to the Hungarian legislature. The country made tremendous efforts in order to reduce its distance from Western Europe. For the beginning of that activity favourable conditions were created by the Springtime of Nations of 1848, nearly paralyzing the European Great Powers, especially the Austrian Empire, which held Hungary in dependency. In March the revolutions in Vienna, Pest, and Milan generated such a shock which took the Vienna Court several months to overcome.

  • Catholic Priests from the Diocese of Csanád in the Hungarian Revolution and the War of Independence (1848 – 1849)
    Trivent Publishing © The Authors, 2015 Available online at http://trivent-publishing.eu/ Philosophy, Communication, Media sciences Series Volume Saint Gerard of Cenad: Tradition and Innovation Catholic Priests from the Diocese of Csanád in the Hungarian Revolution and the War of Independence (1848 – 1849) Péter Zakar Department of Modern History, University of Szeged Gál Ferenc College, Faculty of Social Sciences, Szeged, Hungary [email protected] Abstract The Church, mainly the local clergy, played an important, galvanising role in Hungary in 1848. In the spring of 1848 the possibility of a democratic transformation in the Catholic Church seemed to be a crucial point. The liberal priests started a strong movement in the heart of the Diocese of Csanád. Alajos Magyari, a teacher in the seminary of Temesvár wanted to abolish celibacy and to create a new democratic Catholic Church government. The supporters of Church modernisation adopted the philosophy and culture of Enlightenment, Liberalism, and Romanticism, creating an immanent theology on these bases. Ten priests from the Diocese of Csanád joined the Honvéd Army and took up weapons, while another ten priests served as army chaplains. The Revolution and War of Independence resulted in the formation of a unique revolutionary theology. Keywords: Church history; Diocese of Csanád; the Hungarian Revolution of 1848-1849; liberal clergymen in Hungary; priests in the National Guard; priests in the Honvéd Army; revolutionary theology; the liberal clerical interpretation of the Revolution.

  • The Holy Crown of Hungary, Visible and Invisible LA´ SZLO´ PE´ TER
    SEER, Vol. 81,No.3, July 2003 The Holy Crown of Hungary, Visible and Invisible LA´ SZLO´ PE´ TER The reader at this point will certainly ask: how it is possible that a national relic of such great significance has never been properly examined in order to attain satisfactory conclusions [about its origin]. The answer is as contradictory as unexpected: precisely because such importance was attached to the crown; because it has been treated as the greatest national treasure. Ka´lma´n Benda and Erik Fu¨gedi on the Holy Crown1 The history of political ideas reveals continuities and unexpected revivals. Too frequently it proves premature to pronounce a political idea dead. A well-known example which demonstrates that major political ideas hardly ever disappear without trace has been the re- emergence of the natural law theory which had spent years in the doldrums while utilitarianism dominated political philosophy in Britain and America.2 Ideas whose impact is more limited and confined to a single national society could, likewise, unexpectedly revive after their apparent demise. When over forty years ago the present writer, working towards his DPhil in Oxford, took up the doctrine of the Holy Crown of Hungary, he thought that the subject was of purely historical interest, or at least one without any direct relevance to Hungarian politics, present and future. The reason why this assumption looked obvious at the time was not even primarily because Hungary, as a part of the Soviet bloc, was ruled by Communists who rejected and sneered at any political La´szlo´ Pe´ter is Emeritus Professor of Hungarian History at the School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London.

The revolutions swept liberal, or reformist, governments to power, tasked with forging a new political order based on the principles of civil rights and parliamentary government. By the end of 1849, all the revolutions had collapsed, making them a short and violent European experiment in liberal (and, in some countries, democratic) politics. For the history of democracy, the fascination of 1848 lies in the the variety of democratic forms which boiled to the surface of European political life in such a short space of time and in such a diversity of places. The revolutions witnessed, if only incipiently, the application of the rich and conflicting variety of democratic ideas and practices which have since been identified and closely-defined as part of the modern democratic experience.
