| Abstrakt: |
Sándor Domanovszky was born in Nagyszeben and attended grammar school and university in Budapest. As a grammar school student, he had history teachers such as Sándor Márki and Sándor Mika. At the university, he considered himself a disciple of Henrik Marczali, László Fejérpataky, and Gyula Lánczy. At the beginning of his academic career, he showed interest in medieval chronicles, a passion he pursued throughout his life. After fifteen years of teaching in grammar schools, he assumed the position of professor of cultural history at Pázmány Péter University in Budapest. As he articulated in his autobiography, he saw his mission as “training welleducated young scholars in Hungarian economic and social history”. His extensive work as a scholar-founder is particularly evident in the fifteenvolume series Essays on the History of Hungarian Agriculture, published between 1930 and 1943. He gained recognition primarily as the editor of the official papers of the Hungarian Palatine Archduke Joseph, as the author of his biography, and as the editor of the five volumes of Hungarian Cultural History. Following his forced resignation, his chair for cultural history was abolished. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
