Environmental Humanities has emerged as a discipline that seeks to explore aspects of ecological relations that have not been analysed (or are not possible to be analysed) by the natural sciences. The enquiry carried out in this particular field must be done by using the toolkit of the humanities in order to gain a better understanding of the current ecological problems. The paper aims to provide an overview of this field of research with special attention to exploring its historical antecedents and presenting its basic philosophical concepts. It also identifies the most important publications of the field and refers to textbooks, studies, and the system of journals. is introductory study tries to open up the discourse on the possibilities offered by the humanities that can contribute to solving (or soothing) the above mentioned environmental issues.

In this paper I will focus mainly on the biopoetic aspects of Miklós Szentkuthy’s novel, Chapter on Love. In his novel, Szentkuthy creates an intense rhetorical web of biological metaphors and imagery, also elaborates a specific literary language, a unique world of fiction, in which the boundaries between man and nature are blurred or, on the contrary, even sharpened. e novel, like many of Szentkuthy’s works, uses a theoretical, philosophical vision to approach the experience of elementary perception. I examine the narrator’s interpretation of the individual’s relationship to the larger biological processes, and how the text creates a kind of visual and rhetorical forest.
在本文中,我将主要关注Miklós Szentkuthy的小说《Chapter on Love》的生命诗学方面。在他的小说中,Szentkuthy创造了一个强烈的生物隐喻和意象的修辞网络,也阐述了一种特定的文学语言,一个独特的小说世界,在这个世界中,人与自然之间的界限变得模糊,或者相反,甚至变得尖锐。这部小说和森库蒂的许多作品一样,用一种理论的、哲学的视角来探讨基本感知的经验。我研究了叙述者对个人与更大的生物过程的关系的解释,以及文本如何创造一种视觉和修辞的森林。

Molnár T. Eszter’s Teréz, vagy a test emlékezete operates with three first person narrators, each originating from the same childhood trauma: the main character was abused as a child and she has never been allowed to talk about what happened. Restriction of speech appears not only in the lives of the three women but also in the mode of narration itself. Language, speaking, identity and body are intertwined on the level of the story as well as through intertextual associations and intermediary constellations, such as the use of a nursery rhyme or collages made of dictionaries.
Molnár T. Eszter的《tersamz》是一部试验性的《tersamz》,它有三个第一人称叙述者,每个人都来自同一个童年创伤:主人公小时候被虐待,她从来没有被允许谈论发生的事情。话语的限制不仅体现在三位女性的生活中,也体现在叙事方式本身。语言、说话、身份和身体在故事层面上交织在一起,也通过互文关联和中介星座交织在一起,比如使用儿歌或用字典拼贴画。

An important problem of Imre Oravecz’s trilogy is the relationship between man and nature. This brief analyses concentrates only on two motifs and provide a more detailed interpretation of a few short passages of the text, which show striking motivic and structural similarities and seem to be organized in a way that they interpret each other. The problem of the ’quail’, which is also the title of the volume, is one of the most important elements of a rather complex web of references. It signifies (often in a proleptic way) the changes occurring in the relationship between human and nature, domesticity and strangeness, community and individual, or even father and son. In order to gain a clearer picture of the novel’s fractal-like motivic structure, I concentrate on the episodes in which István encounters quails and point out that in each case, the birds are associated with similar feelings and emotions by the language of narration.

Péter Szirák
The networked narrative complexities of Bodor texts are achieved by variations and iterations, and this is especially the case with the intricately written Sinistra körzet. This allows for the kind of alinear reading that makes possible the cross-referencing of the different textual levels (e.g. a plot point, a description, or a phrase uttered by a character) as well as the self-reflexive correlation of textual elements and speech events that otherwise appear in separate contexts. This means that the text opens itself up to additional semantic possibilities and self-representational shifting. The character and landscape descriptions in Bodor often have the marked effect of blurring the lines between humans, animals, plants, and objects, thereby creating a rich field of metaphorical relations and modulations that venture into the ironic and the grotesque. Humans are substituted/reattributed as animalistic via the act of naming, in order to garner a sense of uniqueness, of the unknown, of the alien, but at the same time this substitution brings about both the annihilation and the familiarization of what is human. is paper explores the textual semiosis of Bodor texts through close readings, focusing on characterization (e.g. “vörös kakas”) and on soundscape descriptions which include the mixing of biophonic and antropophonic sounds. e narrative is “unreliable” and the speech events are idiomatic, resulting in a performative textual worlding and a grotesque-absurd modality that never quite become thetical. In Bodor, the transitions/transformations resist being allegorized.

The paper discusses the prose writings of Ágnes Nemes Nagy. The thematic focus of these texts, which form a peripheral part of the oeuvre, is the representation of nature, and thus their examination can nuance the insights into landscape poetics. In the context of the posthumous work Az öt fenyő, which bears traces of crime fiction and the Künstlerroman, the article attempts to answer the question how the relationship between nature and man (the notion of the sublime nature), the interpersonal relationships between people, and the inclusion of images and ekphrasis can provide solutions to the investigation. The paper interprets the tale of “Felicián vagy a tölgyfák tánca” from the perspective of ecological crisis and ecocritical content.
本文讨论了Ágnes Nemes Nagy的散文写作。这些文本构成了全部作品的外围部分,它们的主题焦点是对自然的再现,因此对它们的考察可以使对风景诗学的见解有细微的差别。本文试图以具有犯罪小说和k nstlerroman痕迹的遗作Az öt fenyov为背景,回答自然与人的关系(崇高自然的概念)、人与人之间的人际关系以及图像和短语的包含如何为调查提供解决方案。本文从生态危机和生态批评内容的角度解读“Felicián迷离tölgyfák tánca”的故事。

Ágnes Balajthy
The third chapter of Kosztolányi’s volume of short stories is often considered to be a coming of age story, in which the eighteen-year-old protagonist’s train journey symbolizes his transformation from a child into an autonomous and independent subject. My interpretation attempts to undermine this reading through exploring the various roles family relations play in the narrative. Although Esti leaves his biological mother behind in the beginning of his adventure, I argue that his story remains centred around the of image of the mother(s); he is surrounded by mother figures and figurations of maternity. Via presenting the mouth simultaneously as an organ of eating, feeding, speaking, and kissing, Kosztolányi’s writing explores the intimate, corporeal, somatic aspect of language shared by the mother and the child. However, the frequent references to school, classical authors and foreign tongues (Latin, Greek, Italian, French) also display language as an external medium of reading, writing and memorizing. ese two aspects – in parallel with the biological and metaphorical understandings of motherhood – turn out to be inseparable in Kosztolányi’s work.

The last collection of short stories by Dezső Kosztolányi, Tengerszem (Mountain Lake, 1936), repeatedly raises the question of where the boundaries of human life are and how human beings can be defined. In the context of natural affects and mechanical existence, the book questions the privileged position commonly attributed to humanity. As human and nonhuman actors oen intertwine in the narratives, life can only be understood as part of a complex constellation. Consequently, the structure of the short stories involves different perspectives, which also serves to develop a critical approach to the homogeneous interpretations of human dignity.
dezsov的最后一部短篇小说集Kosztolányi, Tengerszem (Mountain Lake, 1936)反复提出了人类生活的界限在哪里以及如何定义人类的问题。在自然影响和机械存在的背景下,这本书质疑了通常赋予人类的特权地位。由于人类和非人类角色在叙事中交织在一起,生命只能被理解为一个复杂星座的一部分。因此,短篇小说的结构涉及不同的视角,这也有助于发展对人类尊严的同质解释的批判方法。
