Katolikus Szemle 6. (1954, Róma)
1. szám
SUMMARY The Easter issue of the KATOLIKUS SZEMLE recalls the tenth anniversary of the canonisation of St. Margaret, daughter of the thirteenth-century Hungarian King Béla IV., who was offered by her parents to God as a nun, to obtain the grace of Hungary's liberation from the Mongolian invaders. On this occasion Lujza Galántai exhorts us to beseech God for Hungary's peaceful liberation from her present oppressors and suggests a national vow to restore the ruins of St. Margaret' s monastery on the Danubian island at Budapest and make of it a national sanctuary of perpetual adoration. Imre Várady, professor of Hungarian language and literature at the University of Bologna, presents the eminent Transylvanian novelist, Albert Wass, and analyses some of his novels written in exil. Also the last pages of his splendid novel Tizenhárom Almafa are printed in this issue. Magda Bárány-Oberschall describes the Hungarian objects of the Metropolitan Museum of New York. Gellért Békés explains the development and theological meaning of the Church's doctrine concerning the Blessed Virgin Mary and shows its connection with Holy Scripture. In refutation of the Hungarian communist interpretation of an article by Louis de Broglie, the outstanding French professor of Physics, Komán Rezek presents a letter of Prof. de Broglie, in which he himself denies the materialism imputed to him. I. L. Erdélyi, a young Hungarian physicist who lives in Brasil, gives an interesting synthesis of the historical development of the concept of matter. Following our series of Convert-Portraits, we publish the self-confession of A. T. Ree, professor of Natural Sciences at the University of Seul in Korea. We present also two poems concerning Our Blessed Lady by Gyula Juhász and Gellért Békés. In the rest of the number I. Bácsalmási deals with the state of public education in Communist-Hungary, D. Nemestóthy gives an account of the Berlin Conference and Kóródy-Katona writes about the coming world congress of the Marian Congregations. Accounts of papal sermons, commemoration of the fifth anniversary of the arrest of Cardinal Mindszenty, and other Church-news, especially from behind the Iron Curtain, and book reviews complete this issue.
