TITLE: With United Forces: Official Bulletin of the Alliance of Women’s Organizations of Hungary, Vol. 4, No. 7-10. DESCRIPTION: This journal issue is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. All issues available from 1909 to 1914 in the Országos Széchényi Könyvtár [Hungarian National Library] are included in this digital archive. As indicated in its subtitle, Egyesült Erővel (With United Forces) was the Official Bulletin of the Alliance of Women’s Organizations of Hungary (Magyarországi Nőegyesületek Szövetsége) and most of the associations forming the alliance. The alliance was established in 1904 and had 78 members in 1909. The journal gives information on the activities of the alliance, including its general assemblies and the activities of many Hungarian women’s associations. Repeatedly mentioned, among others, are the Budapest Israelite Women’s Association (Budapesti Izraelita Nőegylet) and other Jewish women’s associations, the Hungarian Welfare Women’s Association of Brassó [Brasov, Kronstadt] (Brassói Magyar Jótékony Nőegylet), the Klotild Assocation for the Marketing of Women’s Work (A női munkát értékesitő Klotild egylet), the National Association of Hungarian Farmer Women (Magyar Gazdasszonyok Országos Egyesülete), the Maria Dorothea Association (Mária Dorothea Egyesület), the National Association for Women’s Education (Országos Nőképző Egyesület), the Hungarian Association against the Traffic in Girls (Magyar Egyesület a Leánykereskedés ellen), the National Association of Woman Employees (Nőtisztviselők Országos Egyesülete), the National Catholic Association for the Protection of Women (Országos Kath. Nővédő Egyesület), and the Tabitha Women’s Association (Tabitha-Nőegylet). ¶ Egyesült Erővel regularly reported on congresses, news, and activities related to international organizations, including those by and for women and women’s movements of other countries. The journal published articles about various questions, institutions, and activities considered relevant for the women’s movement and women’s organizing in Hungary, in other countries, and in transnational perspective. It also included book reviews. The journal thus constitutes a key source of information in particular on the history of the more moderate wing of the Hungarian women’s movement and its international context. Non-Hungarian women’s activism in the Hungarian Kingdom is barely mentioned (see vol. 2, July-October 1911, p. 126); therefore, silenced in the journal. The organizations of social-democratic women were not covered by the journal. The liberal-progressive Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete) was a member of the Alliance and is repeatedly mentioned. The Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete) published its own journal, however, which is available online elsewhere. The journals of the social democratic women, Nőmunkás (Woman Worker) and the Catholic women’s movement, Értesítő (Information), are partially available in this digital archive. KEYWORDS: Social Reform and Political Activism; Campaigns Against Prostitution and Sex Trafficking; Political and Human Right; Family Rights; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Mrs. György Markos; Auguszta Rosenberg; Mrs. Albert Apponyi; born Clotilde, Klotild Dietrichstein-Mensdorff-Pouilly (1867–1942); Ilona Szemere; Erna Castelli

TITLE: Report on the Hungarian National Women’s Industry Expo of 1881. DESCRIPTION: Published under the auspices of the Hungarian Ministry of agriculture, industry and commerce, the volume reviews the exhibited material and evaluates it based upon functional and aesthetic criteria. The expo was organised by the National Association of Women’s Industry (Országos Nőiparegylet), founded in 1872/1873. The forty thousand exhibits fell into four distinct categories as to their origins: cottage-industry products from rural areas (homespun textiles and embroideries from the Székelyföld/Secuimea and the Szepesség/Spiš/Zips/Spisz regions, rugs from the Southern Torontál and laces from the Slovak-speaking Zólyom Counties etc.), small-factory goods, specimens from handicraft classes at girls’ schools and from industrial schools for girls and the work of hobbyists. Giving details about the circumstances, curricula and profile of many industrial schools for girls, and the variety of women’s industrious and industrial production, all over the country, the report paints a vivid and inclusive picture of women’s training and involvement in home industrial and industrious activities in Hungary at the time. The author of the report, Mór Gelléri (1854-1915), a well-known promoter of the industrial development of Hungary, also reflects in some detail on women’s work and the tasks of women’s industrial schools in general. “Female work is not new. It came into being together with the woman”, yet has been gaining additional importance and meaning because of the key role work plays in the modern economy. Finally, Gelléri gives a detailed account of the activities and institutions of the National Association which promoted the teaching of arts and crafts to girls throughout Hungary, to provide livelihood especially to single women and with the hope of denting the monopoly of Czech, Moravian and Austrian products on the Hungarian market. The popularity of needlework was demonstrated by the ubiquity of private courses, but handicraft classes went beyond needlework and also included lace-making, machine knitting, straw plaiting, wickerwork and artificial flower making. Industrial schools for girls, chiefly teaching handicraft, already existed in nine cities and were maintained partly by the National Association and partly by local associations, while a school in Preßburg/Pozsony/Bratislava had been training handicraft teachers since 1875 and ran workshops in several further localities.

TITLE: 1913 Yearbook of the Hungarian Association against the Traffic in Girls. DESCRIPTION: The Hungarian Association against the Traffic in Girls (Magyar Egyesület a leánykereskedés ellen) came to existence in 1907 as a sister society of the British Vigilance Association with close connections to the international anti-trafficking movement. It received patronage from the highest ranks of Hungarian society, and by the year 1913, it was co-presided by the socially active Catholic bishop Ottokár Prohászka and the Calvinist prime minister István Tisza. Its broad mandate included as its central task the lobbying for the prohibition of procurement and for the punishment of pimps. In his keynote speech at that year’s plenary, Prohászka called for the closing down of brothels. The yearly report pointed out among the association’s successes that the Ministry of the interior had set an age limit of twenty for women who brothels could legally employ. Earlier, already upon their initiative, the Budapest police department had entrusted a vice squad with curbing illicit prostitution and had created ten new positions for detectives at railway stations to fight human trafficking networks. The association helped reformed prostitutes to find jobs, it founded a rescue home in 1912 and it relied on its foreign contacts to investigate missing women. Its activists were present at railway stations, at police departments, where they tried to deter young girls from registering as prostitutes, and they carried out core assessments in prostitutes’ quarters. The association also had a role in the Hungarian women’s movement. General Secretary Róza Latinovits (1877-1936) is described as the association’s founder, soul, and driving force. Key figures of the Hungarian women’s movement such as Auguszta Rosenberg (1859-1946), Emma Dessewffy (1859-1936) and Flóra Kozma Mrs. Perczel (1864-1925) carried out its patronage and social work. In 1913, Latinovits represented the association at the Fifth International Congress for the Suppression of the White Slave Traffic. In the same year, the association became one of the founding members of the National Alliance of the Associations Undertaking the Railway Mission (Pályaudvari Missziót Fenntartó Egyesületek Országos Szövetsége), which connected the work of a whole number of women’s associations of various denominations from Catholic to Jewish. KEYWORDS: Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements and Other Actors beyond Empire; Women and Institutions of Empire; Social Reform and Political Activism; Campaigns against Prostitution and Sex Trafficking Work and Class Identity; Sex Workers, Prostitution; Women and Sexuality, Birth Control and Health; Women and Religion; Habsburg Empire; Hungary

TITLE: On Women Workers – For Women Workers. DESCRIPTION: The cover notes that the extensive brochure is published in the “Socialist Agitation Series,” and 1-20.000 is given, presumably as the number of copies. The author, Mrs. Buchinger Szerena Ladányi (1884-1940) was a key representative of the social democratic women’s movement associated with the Social-democratic Party of Hungary (Magyarországi Szociáldemokrata Párt, MSZDP). The time of patience and permissiveness of woman workers is coming to an end. Woman workers have to go through the world with head held high and recognize all the injustice. The brochure points to the additional suffering and oppression caused by the Great War. Nine comprehensive chapters describe women’s condition, the political circumstances, and the tasks of woman workers: the “Household” has turned from a production into a consumption unit and has become strongly differentiated as to class; “Woman in the Family” describes women’s subordinate position and dependence in the family (as recognized already by the social democratic workers), as well as the devaluation of women, women’s work and women’s housework obligations considered non-work; “Woman as Wageworker” has long been and will continue to be a reality in the future, while suffering from unequal pay; “as Mother” the woman Worker suffers from additional burdens; she needs the “Trade Union” in order to achieve equal pay and other improvements; “The Woman Worker and Politics” is not two separate entities, and women have to become involved in politics because of their role in and for society; all the usual answers to the question “Why don’t They Want to Give Suffrage to the Woman Workers?” are misleading and wrong. The eighth chapter discusses “Which Party Shall Woman Workers Join?” and explains that society is constituted of two classes both of which include women and men. By contrast “the feminists” (a feministák) divide society into two camps, women as opposed to men. They accept as belonging to their political camp those women too who are “the biggest exploiters”, ignoring the interest antagonism between rich and poor women. The female factory owner pursues interests opposite to the social and material demands of the woman worker, even if both are deprived of political rights. The woman worker will therefore fight together with the male worker “against capitalism which doesn’t know gender difference when it comes to the exploitation of the working class.” The “feminists” might achieve some progress, yet the emancipation of the female sex comes only with the abolition of the existing relations of production, and this is a goal pursued only by the social democratic party. The concluding chapter “The Journal and the Book” describes educational party and trade union activities for woman workers, and it invites the reader to visit the editorial office of and subscribe to Nőmunkás [Woman Worker], the journal produced exclusively for this group. Those who have read the brochure shall spread their knowledge and turn into agitators themselves. Each individual has to become involved. “We feel that the big masses of women are awakening, and we who are already more enlightened have to align with the weaker ones and lead them with secure hands on the road at the end of which we see the better future, the happier life.” KEYWORDS: Social Reform and Political Activism; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Work and Class Identity; Class Discrimination; Gender Discrimination; Gender and Class; Equal Pay for Equal Work; Labor Standards; Trade Unions; Habsburg Empire; Hungary

TITLE: The Women’s Question: On the Tenth Anniversary of the Maria Dorothea Association. DESCRIPTION: This document was published in 1895 and edited by Mrs. Albin Csáky (born Anna Bolza, 1847-1925), wife of the former Hungarian minister of religion and education. The Maria Dorothea Association (Mária Dorothea Egyesület) took its name after its patroness, the Archduchess Maria Dorothea from the Hungarian branch of the Habsburgs. Until the beginning of the 20th century, the Maria Dorothea Association was at the core of women’s activism related to education and the professional interests, especially those of woman teachers. Its capital amounted to 91,348 forints that year, and uniquely among professional organizations, the introduction boasts, its membership comprised as many as one quarter of all Hungarian female instructors. It maintained a retirement home for eight, and ailing members could benefit from its villa in the remote spa resort Ceméte/Cemjáta (today in Slovakia). It proclaimed among its goals the replacement of French with Hungarian governesses. Prefaced by a summary of the association’s history and workings, the rest of the volume consists of 101 contributions, including lines of wisdom, essays, poetry, and fiction, from prominent members and key figures of women’s civic activism in the decades before publication and at the time, including Minka Czóbel, Janka Zirzen, Baroness Amália Egloffstein, Mrs Armin Neuman, and Vilma Steinitzer. ¶ The book can be considered a key source of information about the state of Hungarian women’s thinking on many aspects of the “woman question,” and forms of activism at the historical moment before the onset of broader and more generalized forms of women’s organizing around the turn of the century. Through its potpourri-character and the large range of themes and contributors, it gives a vivid picture of women’s civic engagement and interest at the time. At the same time, it contains contributions from prominent members and key figures of women’s civic activism and public presence in the decades before publication and at the time, including Minka Czóbel, Janka Zirzen, Baroness Amália Egloffstein, Mrs Armin Neuman, and Vilma Steinitzer. Among these contributions, Zsuzsánna Benczúr calls attention to the poor wages of telegraph operators, Ilona Székely writes about music education, Irma N...y about the vocation of nurses, Antónia Barkóczy-Dömök on girls’ residence halls, Klára Lövei on careers open to women and on the national mission of governesses, Ágnes Zilahy on the business of running a household, Eszter Justus introduces the Union des Femmes of Geneva and Vilma Freund housekeeping schools as a recent Western invention, Augusta Rosenberg remembers Mrs. Pál Veres (see item 30566), Mária Hentaller Mrs. Fáyl evokes a charitable women’s association founded in Pest in 1817, Mrs. Hugó Trux shares pages from her Bosnian diary, Róza Csapó describes lace-making as a home industry in the lower Tisza area, while Ida M. Karlovszky makes a case for women’s aptitude for intellectual work. The contribution by Countess Vilma Bethlen Mrs. Béni Kállay deserves special mentioning for its account of gender relations and politics in the Condominium of Bosnia and Herzegovina, a province occupied in 1878, and from 1908 formally annexed and jointly controlled and ruled by Austria and Hungary. Bethlen’s contribution describes the work the first two woman doctors in Bosnia and Herzegovina. It gives figures about the number of patients they treated, and focuses on their special role in treating Muslim women. The work of the doctors is described as contributing to the raise of Muslim women’s civilizational and health status and bringing them into contact with their non-Muslim surroundings. The provincial government had established the two civil servant positions, of equal status with comparable male doctors, in 1891 and 1893, respectively. Countess Bethlen also describes how, when staying in the province, she used to receive groups of Muslim women, transforming her residence for the occasion into a sealed-off woman-only sphere. Supporting these women in the spirit of true affection helps them to fulfil their family duties in a rational manner and brings progress to “the civilization of the East.” KEYWORDS: Women and Cultures of Empire; Women Interacting with Women, Social Movements and Other Actors beyond Empire; Institutions of Empire; Dynasty; Women and Sexuality, Birth Control and Health; Women as Medical Professionals; Women and Education; Women as Teachers; Education as a Source of Women’s Emancipation; Education in National Languages; Women and Class Identity; Equal Pay for Equal Work; Trade Unions; Women as Medical Doctors; Habsburg Empire; Kolozsvár/Cluj/Klausenburg; Újvidék/Novi Sad/Neusatz; Győr/Raab; Fiume/Rijeka

TITLE: The Woman Worker: Social Democratic Journal Representing the Interests of Working Women, Vol. I, No. 18. DESCRIPTION: This journal issue is part of a selection of journals documenting the history of the Hungarian-speaking women’s movement in the Hungarian Kingdom in the Habsburg Monarchy. This digital archive includes all items available at the Institute of Political History (Politikatörténeti Intézet) in Budapest for the period from foundation of the journal in 1905 to 1908. The journal was published with interruptions. After 1908, it was revived at the end of 1912, only with substantial financial backing and more control by the Social-Democratic Party of Hungary (Magyarországi Szociáldemokrata Párt). The voluminous stock of the journal as published in this later period, including World War I, is available at the Institute of Political History. Nőmunkás (The Woman Worker) gave information on the activism of organized social democratic women in Hungary. It regularly reports about the activities of the Association of Woman Workers in Hungary (Magyarországi Munkásnők Országos Egyesülete) and, later, on the National Organizational Committee of the Woman Workers of Hungary (Magyarországi nőmunkások országos szervezőbizottsága). The journal gave information about the national conferences of social democratic women. Nőmunkás called women to socialist activism, reported on the activities of the woman Comrades in Austria (Cisleithania), regularly gave information on social democracy and social democratic women internationally, commented on political developments and repression in Hungary and elsewhere, and discussed these events as well as social and political questions more generally, with reference to the questions of class and gender. The journal constitutes a key source of information on the social democratic women’s movement in Hungary and its international context. Of note, the subtitle of the first issue published referred to the journal as “socialist” rather than “social-democratic.” KEYWORDS: Social Reform and Political Activism; Political Parties and Other Male Dominated Organizations; Socialism; Work and Class Identity; Domestic Workers; Domestic Servants; Gender and Class; Habsburg Empire; Hungary; Teréz Hatnakovics; Gizella Fellner; Mrs. Kálmán Jócsák; Lily Braun; Charlotte Perkins Gilman; Klára Ács
