Magyarország története: Ungerska 2017

Since the change of regime, opening a new era in Hungarian history, Ignatius Romsics was the first undertaking to review the history of Hungary from the beginning to the present day in a volume. Over ٦٠٠ pages of large-scale work in five chapters - in an intelligible and read style - discuss the Hungarian story. In the first chapter, the author summarizes the formation of the Hungarian people and the colonization of the Carpathian Basin and related theories. The second is the story of the medieval Hungarian kingdom, then in the third chapter about the Turkish invasion, the country\'s breaking into three parts and the different development of the three political unities. The fourth chapter ranges from the end of the ١٨th century to ١٩١٨-١٩, the last, fifth chapter of the Horthy era, the two great traumas of the ٢٠th century: the Trianon and the Holocaust, and then proceeding to state socialism and the Soviet occupation about the last quarter century. The basic principle of the book is the chronology, The text, which follows the best traditions of scientific dissemination, is rich in illustrative material (maps, reproductions, and photos), as well as geographic and personal indexes. This work was not made to the widest possible range of people interested in Hungarian history, but for specialists of each era.
