Book excerpt: Excerpt from Hungarian Tales, Vol. 1 of 3 I venture to record these unimportant circumstances, to shew' that while our sole or chief acquaintance with Hungary is derived from Dr. Bright's excellent volume, there is scarcely an event of English life, -a folly of London fashion, or an invention of British industry, which does not find admirers and com mentators and imitators, among the Hun garians of respectable degree.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: THERE lies before me, as I write, a quaint old book; from this little book—torn and soiled, its edges all gone—nearly all the stories in this volume are drawn. In their earliest childhood Hungarian children hear the story of "Forget-me-Not" (Nfelejts), the history of the "Twin Hunchbacks" (A Rét Törpe), and the doings of the wicked Sultana in the "Magic Cat" (A Büvos Macska.) In my little book is the shell of these stories told simply and in few words. Who was the originator of them? I do not think any one knows, for I have found in many instances the same incidents occurring in the fairy tales of most nations. A modified form of the vain fairy Narcissa is revived in "Little Snow White," and "Riquet with the Tuft" has, if I mistake not, an incident similar to that in "The Twin Hunchbacks." But then again, who has ever traced the origin of all the proverbs and jokes that exist, and have existed for generations, in two score or more Eastern and Western, Latin, Teutonic, or Slavonic languages? Old Hungarian legends, just like old Hungarian music, have to the national mind no palpable origin, though Jókay or Gaal have rewritten the former and Liszt or Brahms have familiarized the world with the latter. The following little collection has helped me in my childhood to pass many pleasant hours, so I now give them to my little English readers—embellished by many drawings—in the hope that they may derive as much pleasure from this little volume of magic and adventure as I did from my old torn copy of "Népmesék."

They are not intended as great works of literature, rather as examples of people using their language naturally. The stories are the sort of tales that you might hear in a pub or at a party, reflections on anything from weather and inquisitive neighbours to a passion for music and how it can help handicapped children.
