A Scythian people: the Kushans

Introduction to the history of Hephthalites
The author, a well-known Orientalist himself, presents the previous book of Éva Aradi, entitled The Huns in India — History of the Hephthalites, published by the HUN-idea Kiadó publishing House in Budapest in 2005.

New branches from ancient roots
Gábor Csaba Kárpáti, the founder and managing director of the HUN-idea publishing house briefly presents the history, philosophy and publications of his enterprise. His main goal is to reestablish, both on a scientific level and in public education a true and traditional Hungarian historical conscience. The book publishing as core activity is a major element in achieving this ambitious goal.
Gepids
The international archaeological and historical results show that the history of Carpathian-basin, after the death of Attila, Hunnish king has to be reevaluated. The Gepids had not ruled over present-day Eastern-Hungary and Transsylvania; their kingdom existed mostly in the southern part of the Carpathian-basin, present-day Voyvodina, where Bayan, king of Avars defeated them. We must investigate, who lived on that territory. According to the sources, Hun and Sarmatian tribes survived there, and occupied independent territories of the Carpathian-basin.
The Gepids had no independent material and intellectual culture; they were mostly influenced by Scythians and Huns. That is reflected by refined precious metals dating from the 5th and 6th centuries.

Writers in emigration — Hungarian literature in the west
This volume contains a selection of Géza Arday´s essays on Hungarian literature in the West written in the past several years and mostly published in the electronic quarterly Mikes International. The book was published in traditional format by the Mikes International Foundation. One of the significance of this book is that the publication of many of the essays found in this collection was refused by journals in Hungary, showing that the freedom of press in today’s Hungary is still a faraway dream. Luckily, Holland is still a country that is bastion of freedom of expression and press.
The book is illustrated with photos of Sárospatak, a significant Hungarian spiritual center.
