NARRATIONS, MEMORY, CONTEXTS the conference celebrating the centenary of the Treaty of Trianon Poznan, 8–9 October 2020. The conference will be held online. ABSTRACTS DR HAB . GRZEBORZ BUBAK Jagiellonian University in Cracow, Institute of Linguistics and Translation Studies (Uniwersytet Jagielloński, Instytut Językoznawstwa i Przekładoznawstwa, Kraków ) The Treaty of Trianon and its later consequences in Hungarian fictional film (Traktat z Trianon i jego późniejsze konsekwencje w węgierskim filmie fabularnym ) Historical motifs have marked their presence in Hungarian film almost since the very beginning, as a result of a succession of dramatic events affecting a generation after generation of Hungarians. Filmmakers drew upon the past whenever the opportunity arose. Sometimes it was revisiting the painful experiences of the past or accounting for painful memories. At other times it was a historical narrative never brought before an audience before, for political reasons. Lastly, at times it was the tide of the moment, such as the round anniversary of a historical event. The revolution of 1956, erased by Kádár from the collective memory, the years of Stalinist terror, the sensitive Jewish issue and recently the fates of former prisoners of war returning from the USSR have all found their place in Hungarian film. Is this also the case with topics relating to the 1920 Treaty of Trianon and its traumatizing provisions regarded as one of the most painful dates in Hungarian history? Neither the tragic experience handed down through generations nor the sense of injustice are going away. This text will attempt to answer the question of whether elements relating to Trianon and its consequences for the Hungarian state can be found in Hungarian film productions.

Published to mark the centenary of the Amer- ican entry into the conflict, World War I and America brings together 128 diverse texts—speeches, messages, letters, diaries, poems, songs, newspaper and magazine articles, excerpts from memoirs and journalistic narratives— written by scores of American participants and observers that illuminate and vivify events from the outbreak of war in 1914 through the Armistice, the Paris Peace Conference, and the League of Nations debate. The writers col- lected in the volume—soldiers, airmen, nurses, diplomats, statesmen, political activists, journalists—provide unique insight into how Americans perceived the war and how the conflict transformed American life.

  • Readings: Isaiah 2:1-4; Psalm 29; Romans 12:9-21; John 14:25-28, 16:32-33
    Preached at St. David's 11/11/2018 Armistice Day / 1 Armistice Day Readings: Isaiah 2:1-4; Psalm 29; Romans 12:9-21; John 14:25-28, 16:32-33 At 11am on 11th November 1918 the guns of the Western Front fell silent after more than four years continuous warfare. It is not surprising that we remember that moment with silence. After the continual noise of bloodshed and devastation, agony and violence, there was now silence. And in the silence, we now remember. But after the silence there was celebration, that peace had finally come. Those who knew the cost of war could truly celebrate peace. Today we need to remember and celebrate. REMEMBERING The Cathedral As we gather in this place we should remember. Not only do we have the photographic display of Tasmanians involved in WW1. We have so many memorials. As you enter the building there is the honour board of those from this Cathedral who served in the so called Great War. We have windows given in memory of those who died in France. Our lectern and brass sanctuary rails are giving in memory of the fallen. We have the memorial to Eric Campbell, the last Anzac. We have this flag carried by Mrs Roberts before every troop movement to and from Angelsea barracks. So many went, far fewer came back, and many of those who did were ruined shells of men. My Family Their service and sacrifice should not be forgotten. All this was brought home to me when sorting through some of my parents’ items when this box was found.
