TITLE: Account on the Kindergartens, 1 July 1830 through End of 1833. DESCRIPTION: Brochure written by Teréz (Thérézia) Brunswick (Brunszvik, Brunszwick) (1775-1861), the founder of the first kindergarten in Hungary in 1828, established in Buda, a city later forming part of the Hungarian capital city of Budapest. By 1836, when the report was published, there had been nine kindergartens operating in Budapest and scores of others throughout Hungary and in the wider Habsburg Empire. In 1828, on the 60th birthday of Francis I of Austria, Brunszvik began to collect money for her kindergarten projects, and under the honorary presidency of the Habsburg Archduchess Maria, a supporting association was formed. At the time, the association was called National-Association for the Promotion of the Earliest Education of Small Children, in kindergartens and Educational Institutions (National-Verein zur Beförderung frühester Erziehung kleiner Kinder, in Bewahr- und Bildungsanstalten). References to the association appear in German. Brunszvik wrote this brochure years after the dissolution of the association, which by 1834 had been replaced by the Association Spreading kindergartens in Hungary (A Kisdedóvó Intézeteket Magyarországon Terjesztő Egyesület); Brunszvik was involved in the transition. According to the brochure, the instructors in the early kindergartens were male, including the fifteen trained in a short-lived course between 1831 and 1833. Women members of the association acted as inspectors. Right from the beginning, the first kindergarten was run jointly with an industrial school, where a straw hatter, previously active in Florence, taught his trade to school-aged children. After members of the imperial family visited this institution and applauded its results, plans were made to expand it into a network of schools. As a narrator, Brunszwik passes in silence over her own role in the association as its founder and the moving spirit behind it, but she takes pride in Hungary’s precedence in the matter over Austria, where the first kindergarten was started in Vienna in 1830, two years after Budapest. Brunszvik points to the all-European character of the kindergarten-movement. The brochure details the donations given to the association in the years 1830 to 1833, giving the names of the many individual donators, and presents its accounting for the period between 1829 and 1833.
