“Furthermore, probably Sohár should also refine her characterization of post-1989 fantasy literature by juxtaposing it with the fantasy literature written in Hungary before the Soviet regime, that is, in the first half of the 20th century, in the works of Frigyes Karinthy and Sándor Szathmári, for example. (Going even further back, one may even widen the perspective on the futuristic, speculative tradition in Hungary by taking note of elements of speculative fiction in that Hungarian classic, Imre Madách’s The Tragedy of Man, an 1860 verse drama containing intriguing speculation about the various avenues for the future of humanity.”
