Doing this kept me sane during lockdown, I loved every moment of it.

@kovesi1 Thanks Simon, interesting to see that even good quality publications love reiterating the misconception of a peasant revolution when it’s a mere myth of the Orczy family :)

‼️👀Bags of partly burnt mail ballots for the Hungarian election were found in Romania near a motorway on Wednesday. Some ballots show support for the opposition.

Orbán granted voting rights to the neighbouring Hungarian diaspora. They can vote by mail.

@kovesi1 Thank you, Simon!

Sometimes I'm wondering whether there's any point in writing/publishing anything not in English. (Or talking about it here). Yet, I can't help it. Here's an article of mine about #BaronessOrczy and the birth of the dual-identity superhero. In Hungarian. https://t.co/TazXt00Gml

@kovesi1 In some countries more than others, though ;)

Thinking fondly of the Hungarian gentleman in Connecticut who called into WNYC this morning to explain the necessity of everyday Ukrainians knowing how to make a Molotov cocktail to throw at tanks and gave a pretty detailed how-to before being abruptly disconnected by the host

@kovesi1 I feel a sudden pang of vicarious shame.

My first article on #BaronessOrczy has been published in Warsaw University's #ActaPhilologica. I'm tackling how #Orczy managed to maintain her English-Hungarian dual identity during #WW1. (Spoiler: wasn't easy, even for her, the master of self-fashioning.)

Delighted to have been part of a wonderful panel at
@HUSSEnglish 15 conference, entitled British Literature and Central Europe, with Ágnes Harasztos and Sarolta Osztrolucky, chaired by the great Imola Bülgözdi. (I spoke about @EmmuskaOrczy – who else? )

My most well-recorded #coffeebreak at the #Bodleian, just the right excuse for a #FirstTweet. Hopefully, I'll be back with more substantial news... :)
