4. Research objectives (in 1-2 sentences)

To study intercultural relationships embodied in translations, similar trends and motifs in two or several literatures.

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters)

My primary field is comaparative stylistics and the stylistics of translation  revealed in the parallel study of Hungarian and English literary works belonging to the same stylistic trend: art nouveau and aestheticism at the turn of the 19th 20th literature; and the comparative study of style of pieces of Hungarian literature translated into English and pieces of English literature translated into Hungarian.  I also dealt with the reconstruction of translation theories based on the theoretical works of some of the most prolific and successful Hungarian translators (Arany János, Szász Károly, Babits Mihály, Németh László). My analysis include translations of English classics from Shakespeare, Edgar Allan Poe up to some of the pieces of modern Hungarian literature ( Krúdy Gyula, Szabó Magda) and postmodern literature (Parti Nagy Lajos, Tibor Fischer). In the method of the analysis applied I integrate the cognitive approach (cognitive stylistics) and pragmatics, considering translations important artefacts of intercultural communication. Apart from translations, other forms of English-Hungarian cultural contacts were also in my professional interest: such as the intermediary cultural space created by permanent and temporary movements of  immigration, peregrination etc.

The language pedagogy and the creation of new teaching material is  a corollary  outcome of my professional interest.  

 The results of my research were published in three individual volumes  and some more than 60 publications and numerous conference talks.

Environmental politics

4. Research objectives (in 1-2 sentences)

To study the development of environmental politics focusing on the age of anthropogenic climate change

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters)

My primary field of research is environmental politics, with a focus on the United States and the European Union from the 1980s to the present. My work examines the development, implementation, and impacts of environmental policies in these regions, emphasizing the political, economic, and social dynamics that shape environmental governance. I analyze comparative approaches to climate policy, renewable energy initiatives, conservation efforts, and regulatory frameworks, as well as the role of international agreements and transatlantic cooperation in addressing global environmental challenges.

My research integrates insights from political science, sociology, and environmental studies, employing both qualitative and quantitative methods to understand how political institutions, public opinion, and advocacy networks influence policy outcomes. Additionally, I explore the interplay between environmental justice, economic priorities, and political ideologies, particularly in the context of globalization and climate change.

The results of my research have been presented at conferences and published in peer-reviewed journals. My work contributes to the broader understanding of how environmental politics evolve in diverse political systems and highlights pathways for more effective and equitable policy solutions.

A discourse about the relationship between the person and the political power, the dictatorship, and a discourse that presents the antecedents and the first initiatives of the phenomenon called ‘prose turning’ in the Hungarian literature. I have published two long parts and some short parts from this research until now, and in the next year I will published a book in this case.

The examination of neologisms. All living languages change, and in the vocabulary of every language a bidirectional process occurs. On the one hand words appear (neologism), on the other hand, words disappear (archaism). Nowadays the tendency of an ever-growing number of neologisms characterize languages. Neologisms can be classified according to the following aspects: their purpose, their method of formation, their frequency in language, according to the form of communication, to their conceptual content, to their intentionality and, according to what part of speech they belong to. In terms of origin the words can be divided into two main categories: internally generated words (including word creation and word formation) and words of foreign origin.

To explore the intersectionality of discrimination and how these dynamics are portrayed in various media, highlighting resistance amd alternative ways of representation

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters)

My research offers a nuanced exploration of how cinema and theater can challenge existing hierarchies, memorialize trauma, and provide space and place for more equitable cultural narratives.  Engaging with Hungarian and international media, I critically examine the ways visual narratives construct, perpetuate, and challenge societal norms, while also addressing the cultural politics of historical memory, particularly in the context of trauma and marginalization.

 Dr. Tamás Tukacs

3. Research area and keywords of research

1930s British fiction; modernism; remembering; trauma; nostalgia; melancholia.

4. Research objectives (in 1-2 sentences)

My main concern is how different forms of modernist remembering are structured in the post- (or secondary) modernist period of the thirties. More generally, the examination of the modernist/secondary modernist generational shift in British fiction.

5. Description and results of research (in detail, max. 1500 characters)

 1. Certain English novels of the 1930s show a marked shift as compared to the strategies of remembering of the 1920s “high modernism,” inasmuch as they call into question the latter’s demands for totalisation concerning memory. 2. The result of the pathological work of memory in the examined novels of the decade is that the self-enclosed, aesthetically-motivated presence, aiming at totality and depth is rendered impossible, since it is highly threatened either by the intrusion of the past (trauma), or the deflation of the present (melancholia), or the futile longing for the past (nostalgia). 3. These texts of the 1930s, examined from the point of view of strategies of remembering, may also serve as points of orientation in the comparison of classic and late-modernist novels.
