		Kate Seredy ^Votes:0 Kate Seredy Kate Seredy (pronounced SHER-edy) is one of my all-time favorite children's authors. Her writing is charming and sensible, but her art is some of the most lovely in children's illustration. My favorites of her books are "The Chestry Oak" and "A Tree for Peter". Kate was born in Budapest, Hungary in 1899. She studied art throughout Europe, served as a nurse during WWI, and finally came to the United States in 1922. She learned English quickly; her books, all written in English, show no hint that it was not her native language. After working for many years as a commercial illustrator, at the suggestion of an editor, she wrote a story drawing from memories of her own childhood in Hungary. The Good Master was published in 1935. Seredy went on to write 10 other books, which she also Read More Go to Site

		One Minute Stories (István Örkeny) - book review ^Votes:0 Danny Yee's Book Reviews Subjects \| Titles \| Authors \| Best Books \| Search \| Latest One Minute Stories István Örkeny translated from the Hungarian by Judith Sollosy Brandl and Schlesinger 1994 A book review by Danny Yee © 1994 http://dannyreviews.com/ Most of the sixty odd stories in One Minute Stories really are that brief: the longest are as much as six pages (of largish print) in length, but most are just one or two pages long. Weirdly surrealist, some of them only make sense when placed in the context of communist Hungary, and their humour is rather wry, sometimes with a real edge to it. They are fascinating largely because they are so different, however, and are far too enjoyable to be rationed out as reading material for "while the soft-boiled egg is boiling", as István Örkeny Read More Go to Site

		The Legend of the Stag ^Votes:0 A Stag of Scythian Gold from the Hungarian National Museum The Legend of the Stag Fred H?mori The Hungarian Legend of the Wondrous Stag is one of the oldest legends of the nation. It is so old that it is found in various forms among those nations who were the distant relatives or neighbors of the Hungarians before their settlement in Hungary. The meaning and the wording of the legends may have changed slightly but they all have much in common. Today the remaining legend is relatively short, whereas in the past it was probably much more extensive. However the Hungarian legend despite it's brevity includes in it many important points some of which can be found in most of the related legends found in other cultures. It is these points which show that once, in the remote antiquity, these peopl Read More Go to Site

Z?GON (Zagon, Rumania today) is a little Sz?kely village in easternmost Sz?kely-land, at the foothills of the Mountains of H?romsz?k ( Hung. H?romsz?ki havasok). In this village was born Kelemen Mikes, the notary to Hungarian Prince of Transylvania Ferenc R?k?czi II, leader of the anti-Habsburg R?k?czi Liberation Fight 1704-1711 .

The notary Kelemen Mikes was not exiled; he, dictated by his deep loyalty and devotion for the Prince, voluntarily followed Ferenc R?k?czi II to Rodos.
