In one of the more quixotic episodes in this ?Magyarization,? large monuments were erected near small towns commemorating the medieval conquest of the Carpathian Basin?supposedly, the moment when the Hungarian nation was born. This exactingly researched study recounts the troubled history of this plan, which?far from cultivating national pride?provoked resistance and even hostility among provincial Hungarians. Author Bálint Varga thus reframes the narrative of nineteenth-century nationalism, demonstrating the complex relationship between local and national memories. 410 0$aAustrian and Habsburg studies. 606 $aNationalism$zHungary$xHistory$y19th century 606 $aMemorialization$xPolitical aspects$zHungary 607 $aHungary$xPolitics and government$y1867-1918 610 $a19th century nationalism. 610 $ahabsburg hungary. 610 $ahistorical study. 610 $ahistory. 610 $ahostility among provincial hungarians. 610 $ahungary. 610 $aimpose unified national identity. 610 $alocal and national memories. 610 $amassive project of cultural assimilation. 610 $amedieval conquest of carpathian basin. 610 $amoment hungarian nation was born. 610 $aquixotic episodes in magyarization. 610 $aresistance provoking. 610 $astudy of magyarization. 615 0$aNationalism$xHistory 615 0$aMemorialization$xPolitical aspects 676 $a320.5409439 686 $aNP 5907$2rvk 700 $aVarga$b Ba?lint$f1983-$01565884 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910796530603321 996 $aThe monumental nation$93835952 997 $aUNINA
