Hello Einde, Everyone,

You are correct that, in most cases, the online texts are not available via
university library catalogues. I never suggested they were. I merely was
offering one of many suggestions that one could take to fulfill an
information need. Seeking out the bibliographic information of books
available elsewhere (like via public libraries) is a perfectly valid way of
doing research. I also did not make any normative claim as to the
superiority of my suggestion over other suggestions listed herein.
Including into one's search strategy sources that may be useful to the one
looking for them -- which in the end is up to them and not us by the way --
can only help  rather than hinder. I apologize if I sounded ungrateful and
pedantic as you say; this was not my intention. But, I believe final
judgment on this matter will rest with the original poster, Matt, and not
you. Lastly, for what it's worth there are many Marxist thinkers who have
published with houses that academic and other libraries collect, and to
somehow implicitly make the suggestion that this is not the case, as you
have Eine when you say "In addition they are, generally speaking, texts by
Marxists," is somewhat misleading. I only have to point you to such houses
as Verso, International Publishers, and Between the Lines as examples. But
this is merely my opinion, and perhaps not at all that useful in this
context.

For what it's worth,


Craig

Apologies if I sound pedantic, but following Andrew's logic, I would also
recommend searching university library catalogues, which are publicly
available to anyone with an internet connection.


This isn't the case - doing a search at marxists.org gives you links to 
the actual texts online. In addition they are, generally speaking, texts 
by Marxists. So you do indeed sound somewhat pedantic - and to my "ears" 
rather ungrateful for a well-meant and helpful suggestion.

Apologies if I sound pedantic, but following Andrew's logic, I would also
recommend searching university library catalogues, which are publicly
available to anyone with an internet connection. Links to them can be found
by visiting university homepages. And be creative with your search queries
to find exactly what you want. Try also to make use of the library's
subject headings to hone in on the area that you can then browse within the
catalogue with more precision. Some starting-point LCC subject headings
could be: Hungary
Historyand
Hungary
History 20th 
Century.
Once you find the book info, see if your local library would have what
you're looking for, or, of course, if any online bookseller carries the
title for purchase. I'll be happy to help further, if requested.

Best to all,

The only book length one I remember reading was this:

Bela Kun and the Hungarian Soviet Republic;: The origins and role of
the Communist Party of Hungary in the revolutions of 1918-1919 by Ivan
Volgyes

Good overview, academic cold-war liberal politics.

I'd also recommend the very short essay, translated by Marxmail list
member Juan Fajardo;

History of the World Crisis Lecture 7:
The Hungarian Revolution
by
J. C. MARIATEGUI

It's at:

There is an account in F.L. Carsten, Revolution in Central Europe, 
1918-19, which you can pick up second hand online easily enough.
