Hungarian-Jewish Poetry of Two Centuries I.

The concept of Hungarian-Jewish literature: a battleground grounded by the desperate debates of several generations. Even today, we cautiously enter the abandoned, weed-stricken area, where every step we take can get entangled in a rusty wire that activates a forgotten landmine. However, we cannot avoid an army survey that also involves conflicts, because it is not possible to live honestly in a misunderstanding. What are the criteria for a definition with a Jewish adjective (concept)? And is the presentation of the results exclusionary? Or is the “scattering” of modern Hungarian poetry, which has once been “re-woven” and serves many lessons, inclusive? Who categorizes? Is the Jew who defines himself, or the one who views him from the outside? We welcome the expansion of the dimensions of artistic expression in the phenomenon of Hungarian-Jewish poetry - both in sound and in themes - because the genius of Hungarian culture can be grasped in this. What a world-unique, sniffing-building attraction has taken place. Therefore, the metaphysical process of Hungarian culture becomes clear in the fertile self-determination that unfolds from (pseudo) shameful repression. We present the results of the “North Degree, Secret, Alienation” with self-evident naturalness, without the fruitful “conquest” of which modern Hungarian literature is unthinkable. Namely, language, the medium of expression, is a historical formation - inseparable from the identities that express themselves through it. In its fabric, therefore, it carries deeper contents and identities than itself, which is most evident in poetry. Our compilation was known to be individual, although the collective expression of “collective memory” is read as a braided narrative of the many strands of the lyric. To a “collective novel” that tells the story of a collective of the Jewish people becoming Hungarian. On the medium, which is more accurate and richer than the science of history, it tells the short narrative of the Jews who became Hungarian - between their “flowering” and “plowing”.
