Hungarológia a Távol-Keleten : Korea és Japán

Abstract

The International Congress of Hungarian Studies takes place every five years to provide an academic forum for scholars worldwide. In 2016, as the opening of the University of Pécs's 650th-anniversary celebrations, the 8th International Congress of Hungarian Studies was held in Pécs, Hungary. The conference participants included more than 500 prominent scholars from 25 countries. Among the 40 symposia, the "Hungarian Studies in the Far East" Symposium appeared in the program for the first time. This occasion brought together founders, teachers, and researchers from Hungarian Studies departments in Japan, South Korea, and China. In addition to introducing education and research activities in their institutions, participants had the chance to discuss the challenges in the field of Hungarian Studies in Asia. This volume of Spectrum Hungarologicum includes papers from this symposium in Hungarian and English.
