Szabó, Dezső (Desider) (Kolozsvár, now Cluj-Napoca, Transylvania, Romania, 10 June 1879 - Budapest, 5 January 1945) – Writer, teacher, critic and political writer. He was the descendant of a Protestant (Reformed) family of civil servants. He earned a Degree in Education (Dip.Ed.), majoring in Hungarian and French, in the Eötvös College of the University of Budapest. Among his schoolmates were Gyula (Julius) Szekfű, János (John) Horváth and Zoltán Kodály. During his university years he was mainly engaged in Hungarian and Finno-Ugric linguistics and French literature. In 1905 he spent a year in Paris, studying French literature. After his return to Hungary, he worked as a high school teacher at Székesfehérvár (1907-1908), Nagyvárad (now Oradea, Romania) (1908), and Székelyudvarhely (now Odorheiu Seculiesc, Romania) (1909-1911). He began his publicist activity at Székesfehérvár with an anti-Semitic series of articles: Capitalism Creates Shackles for Hungary, and stated that, together with socialism, the fetters are created by the activity of the Jews. He was anti-capitalist and anti-socialist at the same time. He and Endre (Andrew) Bajcsy-Zsilinszky edited a paper, the Vanguard (Előörs), in which they wrote in “race-protecting” language. A few years later, at Székelyudvarhely, he became an enthusiastic supporter of the famous lyric poet Endre (Andrew) Ady. For years he worked as a contributor to the journals West (Nyugat) and Twentieth Century (Huszadik Század), writing essays on Hungarian and French literary themes. His first short stories appeared in the paper, West. Szabó broke with the above journals as a result of the controversy around his study entitled The Bankruptcy of Individuality (Az individualizmus csődje). In 1913 he was forced to go to Sümeg and in 1914 to Ungvár (now Uzhhorod, Ukraine) to escape the limelight. In 1918 he taught in Sümeg, Ungvár, and Lőcse (now Levoča, Slovakia), from where he moved to Budapest during the revolutionary times in 1919. He welcomed the homecoming soldiers in the “Aster Revolution” (Őszirózsás forradalom) of 31 October 1918, but he retired to the countryside during the Socialist (Soviet) Council Republic times (21 March - 1 August 1919), because to him it was alien and anti-national. It was in 1919 that his novel The Swept-away Village (Az elsodort falu) made him instantly famous nationwide: he became the celebrated writer of the 1920s. Its story takes place in Transylvania and Budapest, and it features what he considered to be trends destructive to the Hungarian people. He gave up his teaching position, and as a freelance writer, he lived exclusively from his writings. In 1920-1921 he was the author of the editorials of the journal Daybreak (Virradat); in 1921, correspondent of the paper People (Nép); then, in 1923, he launched the paper Auróra, soon renamed Life and Literature (Élet és Irodalom). Szabó became a significant modernizer of the Hungarian prose style. The central problem of his works is the fate of the Hungarian peasantry and middle-class, and the tragic collisions between these fates. His novels and short stories, as well as his critiques, all written in a spirit of powerful denunciation, aroused widespread literary and political reaction and caused considerable debate. He became virtually the spiritual leader of the students in the universities. His other novels include There is no Escape (Nincsen menekvés) (1917); Wonderful Life (Csodálatos élet) (1921); Help! (Segítség!) (1925), and Christmas in Kolozsvár (Karácsony Kolozsvárt). His short stories include Diary and Short Stories (Napló és elbeszélések) (1918), and Resurrection in Makucska (Feltámadás Makucskán) (1932, 1956). His critiques and studies are: Language-Reform Studies (Nyelvújítási tanulmányok) (1903); On a Straight Path (Egyenes úton) (1920); Complaint (Panasz) (1923), and Word Formation in the Vogul Language (Vogul szóképzés) (1904). His collected works are: The Whole Horizon vols. i,ii,iii (Az egész látóhatár I,II,III) (1940), and My Lives (Életeim). The outstanding work of his last years is the incomplete autobiography From the Cradle to Budapest (A bölcsőtől Budapestig), written in a sober, moderate and intimate tone. He died of starvation, aged 65, in the air-raid shelter beneath his home in the Rákóczi Square during the Soviet siege of Budapest. On the occasion of the first national Book Day in May 1929, his works appeared throughout the country. In spite of his popularity at the beginning of the 1930s, his continuing financial problems made him destitute. He rebounded, however, found his way back into public life, and adamantly opposed the social nationalist ideas. Between 1936 and 1941 he gave 59 presentations at the Marksmen’s Garden (Lövészkert) Restaurant where the Hungarian resistance and anti-fascist movement had its intellectual home base. His 60th birthday was a special event held at the City Theater, (Városi Színház) in 1939. No Hungarian author was ever celebrated in such a way. He held his monthly speaking engagements until 1942.

The Dezső Szabó Memorial Association was established on 24 May 1988 and, on the 100th anniversary of his birth, 10 May 1979, a commemorative presentation called “Bow 89” (Főhajtás 89) was held at the Jurta Theater. On 10 June 1990, the Memorial Association officially inaugurated the writer’s monument, created by Tibor Szervátiusz, on the Gellért Mountain. Dezső Szabó was one of the trend-setting thinkers and writers between the two World Wars, who was either loved or hated, but even his adversaries acknowledge his powerful, intellectual writing style, which elevates him among the great Hungarian writers. – B: 0883, 1031, 1068, 1257, 7456, T: 7456.→Szekfű, Gyula; Horváth, János; Kodály, Zoltán; Bajcsy-Zsilinszky; Ady, Endre.
