Contribution to the Cantatas on the Anniversary of the Galley Slaves’ Liberation
199-210Megtekintések száma:60New Hungarian choral works were born on another jubilee, i.e., on the 300th anniversary of
the Protestant galley slaves’ liberation. They are the ‘little sisters’ of the oratorio Budavári
Te Deum, these cantatas are in the order of their completion: Sándor Szokolay: Cantata to
the Memory of the Galley Slaves, Lajos Vass: Furor Bestiae, Zoltán Gárdonyi: Memento.
Composers use the text written by Ferenc Otrokocsi Fóris and other galley slaves who
records the story of his deportation, sufferings and liberation. The last two pieces of music
were composed in October 1975 and dedicated to the choir ‘Kántus’ of the Reformed
College of Debrecen. Their world premiere took place on 11 February 1976 in the Reformed
Great Church in Debrecen, in the framework of festivities dedicated to the anniversary of
the liberation of the galley slaves, the conductor was the writer of this article. -
De Universiteit van Utrecht door een glas-in-loodraam
189-204Megtekintések száma:314The University of Debrecen, which was established 1912, considers itself as an heir of the Reformed College of Debrecen. This can be seen in the visual concepts (architecture, clothing, using of objects of the College etc.), which date back to the old traditions of the Reformed College. In 1938, the University Council took the decision to build lead-glass windows in the Aula of the Main Building, remembering the old university-connections of the Reformed College with Geneva, Zurich, Utrecht, and Wittenberg. This article aims to analyse the motives of the University Council for choosing these universities as the most important old connections of its predecessor and to find out if windows were thought to be as “loci memoriae” or rather as a gesture to the important living connections.

Het dagboek en alba amicorum van Sámuel Cseh-Szombathy
27-46Megtekintések száma:309In this paper I have analysed the itinerary of Sámuel Cseh-Szombathy, a former student
of the Reformed College of Debrecen. After having finished his studies in Göttingen and
Vienna, he started with a journey in 1790 through Southern German cities, the Dutch
Republic, England and finally France. During his journey he wrote an itinerary where he
made a record of his costs and what he as a medical doctor found interesting: hospitals,
madhouses, natural history collections and of course the most important medical
personalities of his time. My main questions are: How unique is this itinerary and how
well does it fit in the Hungarian tradition of itineraries of the Early Modern Time? -
Admiral De Ruyter in Hungarian memory
115-130Megtekintések száma:264Michiel de Ruyter is a Dutch national hero. He is respected in Hungary as the liberator of
the Protestant galley slaves. Since 1895, his name can also be read on the memorial behind
the Great Church of Debrecen. De Ruyter has appeared in various forms in Hungarian
memory during the centuries: either as a fearless soldier, a faithful Christian or as a symbol
of reconciliation. His memory keeps changing but his spirit keeps living on in Hungarian
memory. -
Een trouwe vriend van Hongarije: Ds. Han Munnik (1884–1969)
37-52Megtekintések száma:199From 1921 on, the Reformed Churches in the Netherlands had a study fund, especially for Hungarian students. Until the Second World War, about 40 students studied with funding from that scholarship, neatly distributed between the Free University and the Theological School in Kampen. The chairman of the fund was Prof. F.W. Grosheide (1881–1972) of the Free University, its secretary was Rev. H.A. Munnik (1884–1969), from Zwolle. Both were involved in the fund from 1921 on, Grosheide retired in 1952, Munnik a few years later. Munnik became an honorary member of the Association of Hungarian Pastors and Honorary Professor in Debrecen (1938), Grosheide became Honorary Doctor in Sárospatak (1931), Debrecen (1938), and Budapest (1946). This indicates their significance for the Hungarian ministerial corps and for the contacts between Hungary and the Netherlands in those years.

Gamificatie in de methode in het NVT-onderwijs: Onderzoek naar het gebruik van het programma HANNA en de applicatie MONDLY bij scholieren Nederlands
107-126Megtekintések száma:367Our research explores the effects of digital supplementary course materials used among Hungarian students in secondary education learning Dutch. Our aim was to investigate how supplementary electronic, online and digital course material impacts students aged 15-20 learning Dutch at school as well as their motivation, their experience of flow/anti-flow and their level of Dutch. During the intervention we applied HANNA, a course material developed for tablets, and Mondly, a phone application. Our research focused on 2 main research questions and 5 hypotheses, regarding motivation, motivational pattern and the expected changes, while the hypotheses centred on the flow/antiflow experience, the level of language and its changes. Both the research questions and the hypotheses were established in an abductive framework. We employed qualitative research methods due to the number of our samples. Our research incorporated focusgroup and individual interviews as well. The study was supported by the Foreign Research Group On Language Teaching, a joint project between the Hungarian Academy and the University of Debrecen.
