Thus, assessment of the world's most prestigious book approach of the army at the Frankfurt International Book Fair has given a statement to the MTI Hungarian Book Publishers and Distributors Meeting (MKKE) president.
Peter Laszlo Zentai stressed that the culture of the entire world reflected back to the fair ended Sunday, and the size of that range, "unthinkable and bejárhatatlannak" called. He recalled that during the five-day fair, about 15 thousand square meters, 300 thousand visitors came up to 106 countries - including Hungary - nearly 7500 exhibitors were present.
The great tradition of the past decades, a plethora of Hungarian literature in Frankfurt könyvvásárok establishing recognition of the current row is now the 63 th was. In this year's - just like in the past few years - one of the main theme and the main trends of the continuing digitization, e-books were gaining ground. However, Peter Laszlo Zentai, stressed that the printed books are not threatened. He recalled that at the Frankfurt fair, ten years ago, was the slogan that "Sorry, Mr. Gutenberg," but - as stated - Gutenberg's invention of the printed book is still alive.
As a supporting evidence to suggest that the world's most demanding, most diverse, best book of the German edition of the German book market overall but only 0.5 percent of the e-book. In Hungary, this share is about the same size. The digital book ratio is the most advanced computer technology in countries with less than 10 percent. Although almost a week displayed rating of the so-called e-book expansion of the Frankfurt book fair in any kind of "overwhelming force" could not have experience - said the MKKE Chairman said: a trend reversal lot of talk, but in reality it is far not occurred. The world's printed cultural offerings has not diminished.
This is the same culture, however diverse, exciting and novel setting than ever before. In addition, the Third World's economic growth draws huge crowds in the könyvkiadásba, just to mention China and India. The economic crisis has indirectly had an impact but the recent trade fair, where a slight decrease compared to last year the number of visitors, participants and stagnation, which is actually a decrease. However, there is no dramatic downturn.
Hungary - as noted - literature really became known in Germany, so the Hungarian booth and outside the borders of contemporary Hungarian literature is still the best of the works have been presented. The lack of public support but are now able to organize small-scale cultural events than ever before. The "protagonist", Garaczi Laszlo was Austria who recently appeared in German's latest book on the face and back face of the great Hungarian translator living in Vienna, Budapest, George was presented. However, "the times following the" stand in the Hungarian conference on e-books is one of the largest broker of such content Hungarian, Kossuth Publishing organization.
Since last year no longer guests, but also director of participants in the camp of Transylvania, the Backa, in the Highlands, in Slovenia, Croatia, in Transcarpathia, the Alps, in Sweden, Germany, in Western Hungary Hungarian writers, like Tokaj, so spring 2010 Since the mother country. The well known that wonderful szőleje Tokaj, the noble, the szamorodni, Furmint, Muscat wines of the town is called. Fewer people know that the Foothills, pearl of the Upper Gate of the citadel in the literature. Tiszaladány between the two world wars, and the Tokaj region formed in the summer camp tradition of writers. In the weeks that preceded Aug. 20, at St. Stephen's, the new bread (in communism only to the Constitution), the feast of weeks, the Hungarian nation is vital committed writers, literary historians, public figures of people in a short week, or if the finances so dictated two to three days, gathered to discuss the most serious problems of national literature.
The era of the Aczel-party state cabinet just forty years ago, decided that the best feelings in the drainage channels when the rambunctious summer kipöföghetik writers themselves in the picturesque town of one another. But Tokaji Writing Camp is always túllőtt far, so once in 1986, disabled the power (Bozóki Andrew Liberal Democrat Minister of Culture is trying to do the same in 2005, so that at the last minute postponement of the camp by the end of the allowance, he did not succeed, the camp was held), so this year it held only 39 Writers' Tokay Camp, and reorganized for forty years.
This year the meeting was the central theme particularly topical to the frightening fact by Palffy Renáta recently wrote to the MNO wrote: more and more places to hear your digital könyvformációk as a whole, leválthatják the printing press, the digital magazines in the number of domestic growth in emergency scenarios blood cries.
This situation must be handled wisely, to find a printing press and the delicate balance between digital formations, Hungary: the possibility of peaceful coexistence. In no way can resolve what has been witnessed in the United States, where schools want to delete the traditional writing instruction, saying the computer keyboard pötyögtetnek have kids anyway, why is writing. Anyway, it's only acknowledgment of an existing condition, because of the outdated figure who pen, pencil, paper, Irish? - Declare the overseas "experts".
This is absurd, because the paper, a pen and a man is born of an intimate relationship with a real literature, born of the pen the first draft of a major study. It is no coincidence that America has been virtually eliminated in contemporary poetry, and fiction is dying for real, poetic prose and verse since the computer can not be written. The machine creates a distance, suitable for writing the article, or sort of, precisely kidekázandó commercial, pseudo-or semi-literary works to create, which is now flooded with a Hungarian supermarket counter is admitted. You can call it literature intake. 39 The Hungarian Writers' Tokay Camp status conference on literary life and the acquiescence of the defense instead of the 21 ways to develop against the challenges of the century.
