Abstract:

Due to the Treaty of Trianon – which was signed at the end of World War 1 in
1920 – Hungary lost two thirds of its former territory, as well as the
inhabitants of these areas. The book aims to reveal why the treaty still plays
a role in Hungarian national identity construction, by studying the
alternative conceptualization of the treaty and its consequences. The
cognitive linguistic research explores Hungarian politicians’ conceptual
system about Trianon, with special interest on conceptual metaphors. It also
analyzes the factors that may motivate the emergence of the conceptual system,
as well as its synchronic diversity and diachronic changes. The monograph
provides a niche insight into the conceptual basis of how contemporary
citizens of Hungary interpret the treaty of Trianon and its consequences. The
book will be of interest to cognitive and cultural linguists, cultural
anthropologists, or any professionals working on national identity
construction.
