  A movement in the early 20th century aimed to re-acquire the expenses of the redemption paid nearly two centuries before. Although they could not reach their goals, this movement had a significant impact on activating and reshaping the local identity that was previously composed mainly of feudal merits. To mobilize the masses the participants published several articles offering a positive self-image and even the promises of an alternative Hungarian history. The leading figures were only partly native within the local society, so they made conscious choices to become devoted Jász patriots. #is paper focuses on their lives and attempts in order to analyze how their messages interacted with local experiences.
