Abstract / Summary
TITLE: m g nc (Mrs. Gábor Magyar) to A Nő és a Társadalom szerkesztősége [Editorial Board of Woman and Society], Balmazújváros, 26 March 1919. DESCRIPTION: This card belongs to a group of letters, which gives information on a group of politically active peasant women from Balmazújváros, today North-Eastern Hungary, and the relationship between them and the Feminist Association (Feministák Egyesülete). See also, Péter Veres, “A feministák [The Feminists],” in Falusi krónika [Village Chronicle], 2nd ed. (Budapest: Magyar Élet kiadása, 1944), 231–243 (14pp.); as well as the correspondence with Ferencz (Ferenc) Pokrócz (Pokróc), Mrs. Gábor Magyar, Mrs. István Bordás, Mrs. István Szabó, Rosika Schwimmer, and the Feministák Egyesülete [Feminist Association]. The letter discusses the following issues: whether women’s suffrage will really become a reality; the activities of the women of Balmazújváros with regard to a petition to the King, referring also to the role of the local authorities, and, most likely in connection with the petition, the difficulties of the local population to sustain itself; the speech that will be given by the (moderate agrarian-socialist social democratic politician) Vilmos Mezőfi. KEYWORDS: Women and Institutions of Empire; World War I; Emperor of Austria, King of Hungary Francis Joseph; Social Reform and Political Activism; Political and Human Rights; Suffrage; Work and Class Identity; Gender and Class; Peasant Women of Balmazújváros; Habsburg Empire; Hungary.
