Book Synopsis The Szekler Nation and Medieval Hungary by : Nathalie Kalnoky
Download or read book The Szekler Nation and Medieval Hungary written by Nathalie Kalnoky and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2019-12-26 with total page 265 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 13th century, the Szeklers were granted a territory (Terra Sirulorum) on the eastern border of the kingdom of Hungary. These lands were donated by the king to the community as a whole, in exchange for the armed border guard service. The use of Szekler customary law, based on a military-judicial -- and most likely multi-ethnic – clan structure was confirmed by the Hungarian crown. Based on extensive archival sources from the 13th to 16th centuries, this fascinating book examines how customary law maintains complex structures of clan membership as a condition of access to judicial and military dignities, and how the Szeklers developed rules for land ownership and devolution. These documents recall legal principles in which the clan has pre-eminence over individuals, all free and equal before their laws. In this period, one can observe an evolution towards individual property, a factor of inequality, constantly shaped and limited by the Szeklers' determination to safeguard their freedom. This unique text is vital reading for scholars interested in Hungarian history, medieval law, and clan structures.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A figure of crucial importance to scholarship on western and eastern Europe alike, King Coloman (1208-1241) here receives long-overdue scholarly treatment as a key figure of the thirteenth century. The Arpad prince ruled over a vast area in Central Europe which remained largely affiliated to the Western Church, territories that comprise modern-day Hungary, Slovakia, Croatia, and Bosnia. This study draws on Hungarian and other research that is inaccessible outside the region and places Coloman at the crossroads of Latin Christendom, Eastern Orthodoxy, and the Mongol Empire.

Book Synopsis Vampires Unstaked by : André Gerrits
Download or read book Vampires Unstaked written by André Gerrits and published by North Holland. This book was released on 1995 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Paperback. The revival of nationalist virulence in East Central Europe has aroused the interest of numerous observers - journalists, scholars and politicians alike. Thus far, much attention has been paid to today's manifestations of nationalism in the region and to their political consequences. Vampires Unstaked, however, deals with the historic-cultural dimension of nationalism in the region. Especially since the emergence of 19th century nationalism, the manifold national character perceptions and self-images have stimulated all sorts of prejudices against ethnic communities and minorities in this part of Europe. The contributors to Vampires Unstaked not only analyze the origins, development and topical relevance of various national images, myths and stereotypes, both in as well as of East Central Europe, but also elaborate on the relationship between these mental constructs and the sphere of politics. They attempt to establish the extent to which nat

Book Synopsis Latin at the Crossroads of Identity by : Gábor Almási
Download or read book Latin at the Crossroads of Identity written by Gábor Almási and published by BRILL. This book was released on 2015-07-14 with total page 326 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the late 18th century in the multi-ethnic Kingdom of Hungary, new language-based national identities came to dominate over those that had previously been constructed on legal, territorial, or historical basis. While the Hungarian language struggled to emancipate itself, the roles and functions of Latin (the official language until 1844) were changing dramatically. Latin held a different significance for varying segments of society, from being the essential part of an individual identity to representing an obstacle to “national survival”; from guaranteeing harmony between the different linguistic communities to hindering change, social and political justice. This pioneering volume aims to highlight the ways language debates about Latin and Hungarian contributed to the creation of new identities and ideologies in Central Europe. Contributors include Gábor Almási, Per Pippin Aspaas, Piroska Balogh, Henrik Hönich, László Kontler, István Margócsy, Alexander Maxwell, Ambrus Miskolczy, Levente Nagy, Nenad Ristović, Andrea Seidler, Teodora Shek Brnardić, Zvjezdana Sikirić Assouline, and Lav Šubarić

Book Synopsis Modernism: The Creation of Nation-States by : Ahmet Ersoy
Download or read book Modernism: The Creation of Nation-States written by Ahmet Ersoy and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2010-01-01 with total page 497 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Notwithstanding the advantages of physical power, the struggle for survival among societies is not merely a matter of serial armed clashes but of the nation's spiritual resources that in the end always decide upon the victory. In Europe, there indeed exist independent countries, insignificant from the point of view of the entire civilization, and born by sheer coincidence, yet, this coincidence, this fancy, or diplomatic ploy that created them can just as easily bring them to an end---the nations that count in the political calculations are only the enlightened ones. Therefore, our nation should not merely grow in power, strengthen its character, and foster in people the feeling of love for homeland, but also---inasmuch as it is possible---breath the fresh breeze of humanity's general progress, feed it to the nation, absorb its creative energy. Until now, we have trusted and lived only in the weary conditions, conditions devoid of health-giving elements---now, as a result the nation's heart beats too slowly and its mind works too tediously. We ought to open our windows to Europe, to the wind of continental change and allow it to air our sultry home, since as not all health comes from the inside, not all disease comes from the outside.
