dc.description.abstractThese joint volumes (in English and in Hungarian) com­memorate the life and achievement of István Géher and Géza Kállay, two foundational figures of English Studies in modern Hungary. The collection presents studies by an international cast of scholars on various aspects of litera­ture, theatre, film, and philosophy, mostly centred around the works of William Shakespeare. Literary essays, per­sonal reminiscences, translations, and original poems are also included reflecting the diverse range of two excep­tional scholars, who were also translators, creative writ­ers, essayists – and passionate educators. Each of these pieces engages with some aspect of Géher or Kállay’s work and irresistible influence. Taken together, they pay tribute to their powerful legacy and invite new readers to join the conversation. Action Suited to the Word presents scholarly papers in English written by friends, colleagues, and students of István Géher and Géza Kállay. It is accompanied by an­other volume (A szót követő tett) with scholarly papers, essays and reminiscences in Hungarian.
