Book Synopsis Escape to Budapest by : Peter Cooper
Download or read book Escape to Budapest written by Peter Cooper and published by . This book was released on 2021-04-20 with total page 242 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why not plan your own escape to Budapest? Budapest is still a relatively undiscovered gem. The Hungarian capital is listed as the second most beautiful city in the world. Hungary's economy has been the fastest growing in Europe for the past five years.Budapest is also a more affordable destination than most with plenty to see and do. It also lacked a single travel book until now. You can also move there, like the author and his wife. It's all in this book. How to renovate an apartment. Make new friends. Hidden places to visit. Cultural highlights. The story of Budapest coffeehouses. The Grand Hotels of Budapest. Great restaurants. Why the city is booming. How to become a part of it. From handling eccentric neighbours to controlling a renovation project by email, and exploring the complex history of this city - two lost world wars, two communist revolutions, the Holocaust, the Battle of Budapest, Hungarian Uprising and Prime Minister Orban's reformist government - there is so much to learn.This is where Emperor Marcus Aurelius defended the Roman Empire from the barbarian hordes. Where Mongol tribes - whose bizarre language is still more difficult to learn than Japanese - first pitched their tents a thousand years ago. The story involves quite a few crossovers with Oxford University where the author studied, and economic and political insights into modern Hungary, a magnet for non-EU immigration, rather contrary to its misleading reputation. Budapest is full of surprises. Read about them here.
Book Synopsis Chicago of the Balkans by : Gwen Jones
Download or read book Chicago of the Balkans written by Gwen Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2017-07-05 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the point of its creation in 1873, Budapest was intended to be a pleasant rallying point of orderliness, high culture and elevated social principles: the jewel in the national crown. From the turn of the century to World War II, however, the Hungarian capital was described, variously, as: Judapest, the sinful city, not in Hungary, and the Chicago of the Balkans. This is the first English-language study of competing metropolitan narratives in Hungarian literature that spans both the liberal late Habsburg and post-liberal, 'Christian-national' eras, at the same time as the 'Jewish Question' became increasingly inseparable from representations of the city. Works by writers from a wide variety of backgrounds are discussed, from Jewish satirists to icons of the radical Right, representatives of conservative national schools, and modernist, avant-garde and 'peasantist' authors. Gwen Jones is Hon. Research Associate at the Department of Hebrew and Jewish Studies, University College London.

Book Synopsis Nationalism and the Body Politic by : Lene Auestad
Download or read book Nationalism and the Body Politic written by Lene Auestad and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2018-05-01 with total page 232 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume aims to question the recent revival of neo-nationalist policies in the light of what unconscious fantasies are involved in these developments. It examines both recent movements of right-wing extremism and the way in which rearticulated neo-ethnic ideas have been adopted by mainstream politicians and in mainstream public discourse. Politicians from other than the right-wing populist parties have tended to resist specific ways of talking that are considered too extremist, rather than their underlying frame of interpretation. Governments across Europe have adopted anti-immigrant and anti-Roma policies. Xenophobia and hostility towards 'others' is on the rise, along with appeals to "Tradition and Security". 'Cultures of fear' are linked with fantasies of fusion or 'imagined sameness'. Alongside the image of the nation as a mother and/or father, Reich (1933) called attention to the fantasy of the nation as a body, echoed in Money-Kyrle's (1939) characterization of 'group hypochondria' in connection with the burning of witches and heretics.

Book Synopsis Budapest and New York by : Thomas Bender
Download or read book Budapest and New York written by Thomas Bender and published by Russell Sage Foundation. This book was released on 1994-01-13 with total page 426 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Little over a century ago, New York and Budapest were both flourishing cities engaging in spectacular modernization. By 1930, New York had emerged as an innovating cosmopolitan metropolis, while Budapest languished under the conditions that would foster fascism. Budapest and New York explores the increasingly divergent trajectories of these once-similar cities through the perspectives of both Hungarian and American experts in the fields of political, cultural, social and art history. Their original essays illuminate key aspects of urban life that most reveal the turn-of-the-century evolution of New York and Budapest: democratic participation, use of public space, neighborhood ethnicity, and culture high and low. What comes across most strikingly in these essays is New York's cultivation of social and political pluralism, a trend not found in Budapest. Nationalist ideology exerted tremendous pressure on Budapest's ethnic groups to assimilate to a single Hungarian language and culture. In contrast, New York's ethnic diversity was transmitted through a mass culture that celebrated ethnicity while muting distinct ethnic traditions, making them accessible to a national audience. While Budapest succumbed to the patriotic imperatives of a nation threatened by war, revolution, and fascism, New York, free from such pressures, embraced the variety of its people and transformed its urban ethos into a paradigm for America. Budapest and New York is the lively story of the making of metropolitan culture in Europe and America, and of the influential relationship between city and nation. In unifying essays, the editors observe comparisons not only between the cities, but in the scholarly outlooks and methodologies of Hungarian and American histories. This volume is a unique urban history. Begun under the unfavorable conditions of a divided world, it represents a breakthrough in cross-cultural, transnational, and interdisciplinary historical work.
