Summary "Édes anyaföldem! : Egy nép s egy ember története (1. kötet)" by Elek Benedek is a historical narrative written in the early 20th century. The work appears to chronicle personal memories intertwined with the history of the Hungarian people, focusing on the author's homeland and his familial heritage. Through intimate storytelling, the author intends to illustrate the struggles and resilience of the Székely people, drawing upon both idyllic and dramatic elements from his life. The opening of the narrative introduces the author’s reflective journey as he recalls his small village, Kisbaczon, its unique charm, and the lives of its inhabitants, especially his family. He begins with a poignant admission of having started the book amidst personal and national turmoil, suggesting a desire to document the history of a people who have faced numerous adversities. The text vividly describes the village's character—the lush landscapes, the close-knit community, and the lineage of its families—underscoring the author's nostalgia and emotional connection to his roots. As he recounts his ancestry, he highlights notable figures in his family, particularly his grandfathers, whose legacies deeply impacted his personal development and understanding of identity.
