Beskrivelse
The studies presented in this volume are intended as an addition to scholarship in (comparative) cultural studies. More specifically, the articles represent scholarship about central and east European culture with special attention to Hungarian culture, literature, cinema, new media, and other areas of cultural expression. The volume's articles are grouped into five sections: part one, "History Theory and Methodology of Comparative Hungarian Cultural Studies," includes studies on the prehistory of multicultural and multilingual central Europe. Part two, "Comparative Hungarian Cultural Studies and Literature and Culture," focuses on the reevaluation of canonical works, as well as Jewish studies, which has been explored inadequately in central European scholarship. Part three, "Comparative Hungarian Cultural Studies and Other Arts," includes articles on race, jazz, operetta, art, fin-de-siecle architecture, communist-era female fashion, and cinema. In part four, "Comparative Hungarian Cultural Studies and Gender," articles are about aspects of gender and sex(uality) with examples from fin-de-siecle transvestism, current media depictions of heterodox sexualities, and gendered language in the workplace. The volume's last section, part five, "Comparative Hungarian Cultural Studies of Contemporary Hungary," includes articles about post-1989 issues of race and ethnic relations, citizenship and public life, and new media.
