15:00-15:30 SEAS Singers multilingual mini-concert
TUESDAY, 5th of November, 15:00-15:30
Location: Building R, 4th floor, foyer (ELTE BTK Faculty of Humanities)
Language: multilingual
Description:
Originally known as the “DELP Yelpers”, our group began life back in the mid “noughties”: within the newly-formed Department, we discovered that there were several of us who loved singing but were too busy to join a regular choir. (We also find that a quick sing at lunchtime wakes us up for afternoon lessons!) As a group, it has always been a staff department initiative in and of itself. In the early days, there were only five or six of us, but more recently, numbers of grown, and we are now a group of 12 people, covering more comfortably the SATB roles (soprano, alto, tenor & bass). In 2023, and to include a member from another nearby department, we also renamed ourselves “The SEAS Singers”.
Our repertoire ranges from Willaert to Willcocks, via Tallis, Purcell and the Beatles. We sing in English, French, Spanish, Italian, German and Latin – and have yet to sing in Hungarian. The group sings at various small scale departmental and institutional events, which have included celebrations for staff promotions, “big” birthdays, or PhD defences. We also consider ourselves a key component of the annual DLEP / SEAS Christmas party!

Description:
EN The Allister family’s grand soirée was set to be the event of the season, but before the first glass of champagne could be raised, tragedy struck. A family member has been found dead under mysterious circumstances, sending shockwaves through the elegant halls of the Allister mansion. Now, amidst the glittering chandeliers and opulent décor, suspicion runs deep. Teams of detectives are summoned to the estate, tasked with searching every corner of the sprawling mansion and interrogating the wealthy and secretive family. Each room holds vital clues, and every family member harbors secrets—some darker than others.Will your team of investigators unravel the mystery or will the Allister family’s darkest secrets remain buried forever?
HU Az Allister család nagyszabású estélye a szezon eseménye lett volna, de mielőtt az első pohár pezsgőt felhajtották volna, tragédia történt. A család egyik tagját rejtélyes körülmények között holtan találták, ami megrázkódtatásokat keltett az Allister-kastély elegáns termeiben. Most, a csillogó csillárok és a pazar dekoráció közepette a gyanú mélyen gyökerezik: nyomozócsoportokat hívnak a birtokra, akiknek az a feladatuk, hogy átkutassák a kiterjedt kastély minden zugát, és kihallgassák a gazdag és titokzatos családot. Minden szoba fontos nyomokat rejt, és a család minden tagja titkokat rejteget – némelyik sötétebb, mint a többi. Vajon a nyomozók csapata megfejti a rejtélyt, vagy az Allister család legsötétebb titkai örökre eltemetve maradnak?

They are no longer the faces who listened to Western music from copied cassettes and records, they can’t tell you how the sheet music was passed from hand to hand, or how their first Yugoslav amplifier sounded. In return, they listened to everything they could. All five of them started shaping kisóceán (little ocean) with different musical influences in 2022, and thus their alternative rock world with its distinctive blues, funk, jazz, progressive colours, as well as elements of classical music and math rock, was born.
Their first major album, pisztácia (pistachio), was released in the spring of 2024.

9:30 Ireland and the birth of Europe | Exhibition opening with a playful insight into the Irish language/ EN, GA, HU (exhibition open all day)
WEDNESDAY, 6th of November, exhibition opening at 9:30
Location: Building A, Room 39 (ELTE BTK Faculty of Humanities)
Language: English, Gaelic, Hungarian
Description:
Ireland joined the European Economic Community, the forerunner of the European Union, in 1973, but Irish participation in the development of European identities dates back more than a thousand years. After the collapse of the Roman Empire in the West, Europeans built on its foundations to develop their own culture and identity. The Irish played an important role in this great enterprise.
This exhibition tells the story of the part played by Irish scholars and missionaries in the early history of the European idea, especially their cultural role in the consolidation of the empire built by the Carolingians that covered most of Western Europe. St Columbanus was the first of the Irish missionaries and scholars to make a home on the Continent and in around the year 600, became the first to write ‘of all of Europe’ (totius Europae). He and his followers contributed to the shaping of a European heritage that endures today.
This exhibition is curated by the Department of Foreign Affairs with Dr. Damian Bracken, University College Cork.
The exhibition will be opened by Dr. Orsolya Réthelyi, Vice-Dean for International Affairs at ELTE Faculty of Humanities. Following the opening, participants can gain playful insights into the Irish language, facilitated by Lili Zách, assistant professor at ELTE’s School of English and American Studies.

Location: Building C, Room 248 (Room Horányi) (ELTE BTK Faculty of Humanities)
Language: Hungarian!
HU Európában az 1560-1630-as évek közötti időszak az intenzív, hosszú boszorkányüldözések korszaka volt. De vajon lehet-e összefüggés az ingatag gazdasági és politikai helyzet, a klíma szélsőséges megnyilvánulásai és a boszorkányság között? Kik voltak a boszorkányvadászok a kora újkorban és hogyan dolgoztak? Valóban csak kegyetlen inkvizítorok léteztek? Megtalálhatjuk-e a ráció „hangját” a boszorkányszombat, a csecsemőgyilkosságok, ördögi orgiák víziói mögött a forrásokban? Ezekre a kérdésekre keressük a választ az előadásban kora újkori katalán törvényszéki, inkvizíciós források alapján. És végső soron arra, hogy mit ment át ezekből az irodalom a ma emberének.
ES En Europa, el periodo comprendido entre 1560 y 1630 fue una época de una intensa y larga caza de brujas. Pero, ¿podría existir una relación entre la volátil situación económica y política, los fenómenos climáticos extremos y la brujería? ¿Quiénes eran los cazadores de brujas a principios de la Edad Moderna y cómo actuaban? ¿Los inquisidores eran todos crueles? ¿Podemos encontrar la «voz de la razón» tras los aquelarres, los infanticidios y las orgías diabólicas? Éstas son las preguntas que intentaremos responder en esta conferencia, basada en las fuentes forenses e inquisitoriales catalanas de principios de la Edad Moderna. Y, en definitiva, veremos qué es lo que la literatura ha transmitido sobre todo ello a las personas de hoy.
EN In Europe, the period between 1560 and 1630 was a time of intense, long witch hunts. But could there be a link between the volatile economic and political situation, extreme climatic events and witchcraft? Who were the witch hunters in the early modern period and how did they work? Were there really only cruel inquisitors? Can we find the ‘voice of reason’ behind witch-sabbaths, infanticides and diabolical orgies? These are the questions we will try to answer in this conference, based on early modern Catalan forensic and inquisition sources. And, ultimately, we will see what literature has transmitted about all this to the people of today.

As a result of this, and from the initiative of amateur folk dance ensembles, the “dance house” was born also in Hungary. The exemplary form, which is still alive today in Northern Transylvania, was characterized by the original folk instrumental music and the living traditional dance performance. This form, especially among urban youth, developed into a movement. ELTE’s Folk Dance Ensemble, founded in 1957 and distinguished by numerous certifications and festival awards, has already toured several European countries and China. Its members, dressed in traditional folk costumes, give a spectacular taste of the folk dances of the Hungarian regions. The presentation is followed by “barn dance” including teaching.
HU A XX. század közepétől tánc- és zenekedvelő fiatalok klubszerű keretekben az európai néptánckincs elsajátítására és művelésére vállalkoztak, ahol a táncok önkifejező szereppel is bírnak. Ennek nyomán, valamint amatőr néptáncegyüttesek kezdeményezéséből született meg Magyarországon is a „táncház”. A példát adó, Észak-Erdélyben ma is élő formát az eredeti népi hangszeres muzsika és a hagyományos, még élő táncos előadásmód jellemezte. Ez a forma, főként a városi fiatalok körében, táncház mozgalommá kerekedett ki. Az ELTE 1957-ben alakult, számos minősítéssel, fesztiváldíjjal jeleskedő Néptáncegyüttese Európa több országában és Kínában is turnézott már. Hagyományos népviseletbe öltözött tagjai a magyar tájegységek néptáncaiból adnak látványos ízelítőt. A bemutatót tánctanítás, táncház követi.
