Utopian studies is becoming increasingly interdisciplinary, and this research integrates literary hermeneutics with ideas and methods from political science and the history of ideas. In doing so, it argues that Hungarian utopianism was influenced by the regions (and Hungarian cultures) position of permanent liminality between Western and Eastern European patterns of power structures, social and political order. After a thorough methodological introduction, some early modern texts written in Hungary are discussed, while the detailed analyses focus on nineteenth-century texts, written by Bessenyei, Madach, and Jokai, whereas the twentieth century is represented by Karinthy, Babits and Szathmari. In the interpretations the results of contemporary scholarship is applied, particularly the works of Lyman Tower Sargent, Gregory Claeys and Fatima Vieira. Zsolt Cziganyik is Associate Professor at Eotvos Lorand University, Hungary. He has been a visiting professor at Central European University, and a scholar at the Gerda Henkel Foundation. His research focuses on the interaction of politics and literature in modern and contemporary prose, especially in utopian and dystopian literature. 504 $a Includes bibliographical references and index. 648 7 $a 1800-1999 $2 fast 650 0 $a Hungarian fiction $y 19th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Hungarian fiction $y 20th century $x History and criticism. 650 0 $a Utopias in literature. 650 0 $a Dystopias in literature. 650 7 $a Dystopias in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00900374 650 7 $a Hungarian fiction. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst00963916 650 7 $a Utopias in literature. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01163372 655 7 $a Criticism, interpretation, etc. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411635 776 08 $i ebook version : $z 9783031092268 830 0 $a Palgrave studies in utopianism. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20231117031735.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=72A29EF8DDAE11EDB031D5162DECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
