TITLE: Advocate of Hungarian Women to the Estates Convened in Buda. DESCRIPTION: This document was written by a’ Javalló, meaning “the one who affirms,” which was used as a pseudonym by Ádám Pálóczi Horváth. The work is a plea for noble women’s right to be allowed as bystanders into the assemblies of the Hungarian diet, bearing close resemblance to the pamphlet by Péter Bárány that made the same point the same year 1790. In a peculiar move, soon after publication, Ádám Pálóczi Horváth rushed to write an answer in the positive to his own pamphlet, on noblemen’s behalf. In the Hungarian women’s movement to 1918, and beyond, all three texts were repeatedly commemorated as foundational documents of women’s aspirations for political participation. In Hungarian cultural memory, Pálóczi Horváth is remembered for his collection of popular poetry, for his Masonic roman à clef, and for his callow anti-German sentiments. Like Bárány, “Javalló” quotes Empress Maria Theresa as one proof that women can display more merit than beauty. He emphatically does not advocate deliberative power for them, at least not under the sorry Hungarian conditions, but he argues that as brethren and not slaves to men, they should be entitled to follow the dealings of the diet and to see their husbands fighting for their benefit. Their presence would exert a mutually salutary effect; not only would it mollify men’s tempers and give rise to more dignified debates, but also it would help men to win the admiration of their wives. Moreover, the fact that the proceedings take place in Hungarian may also endear the national tongue to the fair sex, prompting them to use it when talking to their sons.
