Past and Future (Múlt és Jövő)
Publishing House
Past and Future was a well known, highly
prestigious Hungarian Jewish cultural monthly that appeared
between 1911 and 1944, founded and edited by József Patai
(1822–1953). János Kőbányai revived the journal just before the
collapse of the communist regime in 1988. Since 1994, the Past
and Future house has also been engaged in publishing books
touching on all aspects of Jewish culture. To date these have
included various genres:
fiction, non-fiction, Jewish studies, Jewish history, sociology,
art and even children’s books. Past and Future has viewed its
special task to acquaint the wider public with the creations of
Hungarian Jewish culture that were produced during the short and
rich period from the end of the nineteenth century until the
Hungarian Holocaust in 1944. It also aims at disseminating the
work of present-day authors, artists and scholars from Hungary.
About half of its output deals with Jewish topics in Hungary,
while the rest is devoted to works produced abroad. The
Publishing owns the rights to the following titles.
