Afterwards, at the fourteenth Festival, the double foot-race was added: Hypenus of
Pisa won the prize of wild olive in the double race, and at the next Festival Acanthus
of Lacedaemon won in the long course.” (Pausanias: Description of Greece)
A) „Amióta a [játékokról] folyamatos feljegyzéseket vezetnek, először csak a

futóversenyek győzteseit díjazták, és ebben a versenyszámban először az éliszi
Koroibosz győzött. Igaz, Koroibosznak [a játékok helyszínén] nincsen szobra, de
síremléke megtalálható Élisz határvidékén. Később, a tizenegyedik [játék] alkalmával
bevezették a kettősfutást, s ebben a piszai Hüpénosz nyerte el a vadolajfa koszorút,

4 This task is about the history of French Absolutism.

“It is not difficult to establish this manufactory, and to increase the number of
machines […] as these kinds of fabric are produced already and are in great demand;
the 30% levied on the products of the manufactories of Flanders makes it impossible
to import them – so spreading our own products will be very simple. […]
Their contracts must be examined, especially the last one, according to which I gave
them 40,000 livres when they got married. I lent this sum to their late father on
condition that he install 120 machines, which, of course, would work in two shifts. […]
Efforts must be made to have ships in Le Havre which are capable of transporting
goods […] to Portugal and Spain, and they must be assured that warships will be
provided by the king for their escort.
It must also be considered, together with intendants (royal commissioners) Derier and
Gelet, how the River Scarpe could be made navigable, how river transport could be
established between Douai and Lille and the roads be made suitable to facilitate
transport.” (Colbert, French minister’s instructions, 1667)

emelt szint jel:
„Nem nehéz megteremteni ezt a manufaktúrát, úgyszintén növelni a gépek számát is

[…], mivel ezeket az anyagfajtákat már gyártják, s ezek nagy keresetnek örvendenek;
a 30%, ami a flandriai manufaktúrák készítményeire van kivetve, lehetetlenné teszi
ezek behozatalát – így igen könnyű lesz saját készítményeink terjesztése. […]
Meg kell vizsgálni a velük kötött szerződéseket, s különösen a legutóbbit, melynek
értelmében 40 ezer livres-t adtam nekik, amikor megnősültek; ezt az összeget azzal a
feltétellel adtam kölcsön boldogult apjuknak, hogy 120 gépet állít be, melyek
természetesen két műszakban dolgoznak. […]
Erőfeszítéseket kell tenni arra, hogy Le Havre-ban legyenek hajók, amelyek képesek
árut szállítani […] Portugáliába és Spanyolországba, s biztosítani kell őket, hogy
a király hadihajókat fog adni elkísérésükre. Fontolóra kell venni Derier és Gelet
intendáns [királyi megbízott] urakkal együtt azt is, hogyan lehetne könnyen
hajózhatóvá tenni a Scarpe folyót, megteremteni a hajózást Douai-tól Lille-ig,
s alkalmassá tenni a kocsiutakat a szállítás megkönnyítésére.” (Colbert francia miniszter
utasításai, 1667)

1. At that time France was lagging behind England and the Netherlands in the production of

2. Colbert’s instructions may have been unfavourable for French consumers in the short run,
since they may have increased prices.
3. In the interests of free trade, Colbert as a physiocrat wanted to abolish every kind of state
regulation that opposed it, e.g. monopolies.

A) “As his treasury started growing, besides honouring God with due respect, [...] he
had great, new, magnificently built houses erected at his seat of residence [...]. He had
fine land stewards selected to manage his royal estates. He brought in expert masters
to work the salt, gold, silver, mercury and copper mines from far away and at great
cost. He spent great sums bringing all kinds of craftsmen and masons from abroad, at
least two hundred good craftsmen of all sorts from Moravia and from among the new
Christians.” (Lamentable Hungarian Chronicle, by János Szalárdi, 1662)
A) „Tárháza [kincstára] valamit gyarapodni kezde, az Isten tiszteletire nézendő

szorgalmatos gondja után székeshelyén […] nagy friss, fejedelmi pompás épületű
házakat építtetett vala […]. Fiscus jószágaiban [kincstári birtokokon] való

c) The reason why farming the lands belonging to the crown was especially important
was that …

estates.
3. it was during his reign that division of labour started in Europe, which led to the
growth of manorial farming.

1. Catholics driven away by the Habsburgs.
2. Muslims who were taken prisoner and converted to Christianity.
3. Anabaptists, members of a minority Protestant denomination persecuted throughout
Europe.

Europe.
2. because students who had attended university in the West familiarised Transylvania
with the modern ideas.
3. as in both cases the principal source of income was the export of goods produced by
the well-developed manufactories.

7 This task is about the history of Hungary in the Reform Era. (complex test question)
A) “We consider it our duty to point out the principal objectives the prompt realisation
of which […] we deem necessary for the benefit of the country.
These are the following: […] compulsory abolition of feudal obligations owed by serfs
with indemnification, codified in law.” (Declaration of Opposition)
A) „Kötelességünknek tartjuk nyilván s világosan kijelölni azon tárgyak főbbjeit,

miknek minél előbbi létrehozását, […] a hon javára múlhatatlanul szükségesnek
hisszük.
Ezek a következők: […] az úrbéri viszonyoknak kármentesítés mellett kötelező
törvény általi megszüntetése.” (Ellenzéki Nyilatkozat)
B) “Socage deserves even more attention, and it is just as difficult to deny all the harm
that originates from it as to deny the fact that 2 times 2 equals 4. […] And whoever has
not experienced […] that the labour which a serf [owning a complete plot] can do with
his inadequate plough, fragile cart and weak cattle in 52 days, or can have done by his
clumsy servant or young children in 104 days, he can do with his labourers, good tools
and strong cattle […] in a third of the mentioned time.” (István Széchenyi: Credit)
B) „A robot […] [léte] még nagyobb figyelmet érdemel, s azon kárt, mely belőle
háramlik, éppen oly bajosan tagadhatni, mint azt, hogy 2 x 2 = 4. […] S ki nem
tapasztalta, […] hogy azon munkát, melyet egy egész [telkes] jobbágy rossz ekéjével,
[törékeny] szekerével, gyenge marhájával 52 nap, vagy ügyetlen cselédje s gyenge
korú gyermeki által 104 nap tud végezni, maga béresivel, jó szerszámmal s erős
marhával […] a mondott idő egyharmad része alatt nem vihette volna végbe!”
(Széchenyi István: Hitel)
C) “Let us consider the fact that in our country the members of the aristocracy
[nobility] live mostly in villages, scattered among taxpayers. Honourable Gentlemen,
for a few hundred thousand to live among nine million in peace: this depends on the
goodwill of those millions […]. This goodwill may be brought about by mutual trust.
[…] But can trust exist among people who relate to each other as master and servant?
[…] The examples throughout the history of our country are more dreadful than
anywhere else.” (Ferenc Kölcsey’s speech at the first Reform Diet, 1834)
C) „Gondoljuk meg nálunk az arisztokrácia [nemesség] tagjai legnagyobb részben

falukon, az adózók közt elszórva laknak. Már, Tekintetes Rendek, egy pár százezernek
kilenc millió közt csendességben élni: ez bizony a milliók jóakaratától függ […],
e jóakaratot a kölcsönös bizalom teremtheti . […] De bizodalom lehet-e oly emberek
közt, kik úr és szolga viszonyában állnak egymáshoz? […] Hazánk történeteiben
a példák borzasztóbbak, mint akárhol.” (Kölcsey Ferenc beszéde az első reform-
országgyűlésen, 1834)

D) “The Hungarian nobleman has a share in legislative power and has rights to an
estate; the Hungarian nobleman cannot even be disturbed by the king outside the
scope of the law, either in his person or in his assets; he can use his property freely.
[…] But let me ask, would the Hungarian nobleman lose any of these rights if the law
were to proclaim that the Hungarian peasant cannot be disturbed either, outside the
scope of the law, in his person or in his assets, that he too owns land, and he is a
member of the nation, too […]? This would have no consequence for the king or the
nobility other than the fact that now only six hundred thousand people safeguard the
constitution, observance of which is in the interests of the king and the citizens alike;
however, in that case there would be ten million people safeguarding it.” (Essay by
Lajos Kossuth, 1833)
D) „A magyar nemes részese a törvényhozó hatalomnak, s földbirtoki jussal bír;

a magyar nemest törvény útján kívül, személyében és vagyonában még a király sem
háborgathatja; tulajdonával szabadon élhet […]. De kérdem én, mit veszít mindezen
igazaiból a magyar nemes, ha törvény által azt nyilatkoztatnák: hogy a magyar
parasztot személyében s vagyonában törvény útján kívül szintén senki sem
háborgathatja, hogy ő is birtoki tulajdonnal bír, hogy ő is tagja a nemzetnek […]?
Ennek királyra s nemesre egyéb befolyása nem lenne annál, hogy most csak
hatszázezer ember őrzi az alkotmányt melynek feltartása királyt s polgárt egyaránt
érdekli, akkor ellenben tízmillió ember őrzené.” (Kossuth Lajos írása, 1833)

“There is a certain kind of adventurism in the question of economic planning, for

instance, the forced development of domestic metallurgy. Hungary does not have its
own iron ore, nor its own coke. All this must be imported from abroad. Nobody has
calculated yet how much 1 ton of raw iron or steel costs Hungary. Ironworks are being
built in Hungary for which nobody has promised the iron ore. In 1952, they had a
shortfall of 700,000 tons of coke.” (Bulganin, Soviet leader, June 1953)
„A gazdasági tervezés kérdéseiben van bizonyos kalandorság, pl. a saját vaskohászat

túlzott fejlesztése. Magyarországnak nincs saját vasérce, sem saját koksza. Mindezt
külföldről kell behozni. Senki sem számította még ki, hogy mennyibe kerül
Magyarországnak 1 tonna nyersvas és acél, Magyarországon olyan nagyolvasztókat
építenek, melyekhez az ércet senki sem ígérte meg. 1952-ben 700 000 tonna koksz
hiányzott.” (Bulganyin szovjet vezető, 1953 júniusa)

Danzig [Gdansk, city in Poland] is from the Dutch coming to Danzig once or twice a

the cereals they find in that city. In the last twenty-five years all the great
landowners/squires of Poland and Prussia have discovered that they can send all their

Use the sources and your own knowledge to present Hungarian foreign policy concerning
the maintenance and restoration of the territorial unity of “Historical Hungary” between
1918 and 1939. In your answer mention the following points:
 Hungary at the end of World War I and the foreign policy of the Károlyi government,
 the foreign policy and wars of the Hungarian Soviet Republic,

“My foreign policy is based on Wilsonian ideals. We have only one ideology: Wilson,
Wilson, and for the third time Wilson. […] The role of America is to remake Europe,
extirpating the idea of revenge and creating a peace that will not leave any nations
embittered.” (Mihály Károlyi, 1918)
„Külpolitikámat a wilsoni elvekre alapítom. Nekünk egy elvünk van: Wilson, Wilson
és harmadszor is Wilson. […] Amerikára az a feladat vár, hogy átgyúrja egész Európát,
kiirtsa belőle a reváns gondolatát, és olyan békét teremtsen, mely nem hagyja egyetlen
nép lelkében sem a keserűség fullánkját.” (Károlyi Mihály, 1918)
“The Allied and Associated Powers wish to summon the representatives of the
Hungarian government to the peace conference of Paris soon, in order to learn about
their views on the just boundaries of Hungary. Meanwhile, Hungarians are
conducting raids against Czechoslovakians and are invading Slovakia. At the same
time the Allied and Associated Powers proclaimed their firm decision to put an end to
any pointless hostilities when on two occasions they stopped Romanian troops
crossing first the borders specified in the armistice and then the boundary of the
neutral zone, and impeded their further advance towards Budapest, and also when
they stopped the Serbian and French armies at the Southern Hungarian front. In these
conditions we firmly instruct the government of Budapest to immediately put a stop
to attacks against the Czechoslovakians.” (telegram from the Paris Peace Conference,
known as the “Clemenceau memorandum”, 7 June 1919)
„A szövetséges és társult kormányok rövidesen a párizsi békekonferencia elé kívánják

idézni a magyar kormány képviselőit, hogy megismerjék Magyarország igazságos
határaival kapcsolatos nézeteiket. A magyarok pedig éppen most intéznek éles
támadásokat a cseh-szlovákok ellen és lerohanják Szlovákiát. Ugyanakkor a
szövetséges és társult hatalmak már kinyilvánították szilárd elhatározásukat, hogy
minden értelmetlen ellenségeskedésnek véget vetnek, amikor két alkalommal is
megállították a fegyverszünetben megállapított határt, majd a semleges övezet határát
átlépő román csapatokat, illetve megakadályozták további előrenyomulásukat
Budapest irányában – továbbá amikor a déli magyar fronton megállították a szerb és
francia hadsereget. Ilyen körülmények közt a leghatározottabban fölszólítjuk a
budapesti kormányt, haladéktalanul vessen véget a cseh-szlovákok elleni
támadásoknak.” (A párizsi békekonferencia távirata, az ún. Clemenceau-jegyzék, 1919.
