Absztrakt

between 2010 and 2025 by Hungarian historians, the study outlines eleven thematic areas. In addition to theoretical and methodological inquiries, it also considers master narratives. It further examines monographs on major social groups, including elites, the bourgeoisie, Jews, the peasantry, and the working class. Finally, it discusses scholarship on key themes in social and cultural history, such as violence, emotions, and the histories of everyday and private life. Focusing primarily on the historiography of the early modern and modern periods, the survey shows that in Hungary, too, previously prevalent deterministic and economistic modes of historical thinking are giving way to approaches that foreground historical agency.
