Autorenporträt
Lajos Kossuth, born on September 19, 1802, in Monok, Kingdom of Hungary, was a Hungarian lawyer, journalist, politician, statesman, and Governor-President of the Kingdom of Hungary during the revolution of 1848–49. A fervent advocate for his country's independence and democratic reform, Kossuth's political fervor and eloquence positioned him as a prominent leader in the fight against Habsburg rule. His speeches, rousing and potent, were compiled in the book 'Select Speeches of Kossuth,' mirroring the intellectual landscape and passionate nationalism of 19th-century Hungary. His literary style, marked by persuasive rhetoric and a powerful command of language, underscored his commitment to liberty and national self-determination. Although his attempts at securing Hungarian independence were ultimately thwarted, Kossuth's legacy as a champion of democracy and freedom made him a national hero. Exiled after the Hungarian War of Independence, he continued to influence European politics from abroad. Kossuth died on March 20, 1894, in Turin, Italy, but his writings still resonate as testament to his profound impact on Hungarian history and the enduring struggle for human rights and national sovereignty. Not only do his speeches provide insight into the revolutionary period, but they also serve as essential documents for understanding the evolution of political oratory and its role in shaping public discourse.
