Being Hungarian in Cleveland: Maintaining Language, Culture, and Traditions - Endre Szentkiralyi

Descriere Being Hungarian in Cleveland: Maintaining Language, Culture, and Traditions - Endre Szentkiralyi

\n \nCleveland, Ohio, has been the U.S. hub for all things related to Hungary and Hungarians since the nineteenth century. Today, Cleveland's Hungarian community remains vibrant and continues to value and preserve its heritage despite the ongoing impact of economic, social and cultural changes, demographic shifts and gentrification. In this work, historian Endre Szentkiralyi examines the concept of being Hungarian in Cleveland, using a variety of methodologies and drawing on his 47 years as an active member of that community.\n \n \n\n \nHe looks at the community historically and sociologically via in-depth research into its language and literature, culture, and traditions, with a focus on the years from 1950 to the present. Today, though Cleveland's unique Hungarian community is shrinking, its extensive roots-significantly shaped by succeeding generations-run deep, and Szentkiralyi's research attests to the fact that it is still thriving. In his conclusion he addresses recent developments, including the communication and outreach strategies of the community's core organizations, and offers a hopeful outlook for its changing but enduring future.\n \n \n\n
