About

I am a historian of modern Europe with doctoral degrees from ELTE Budapest and York University in Toronto. I teach a wide range of courses in the social, intellectual, and gender history of modern Europe. My research interests in Hungarian and Central European social, gender, and intellectual history expand from the 1890s to the 1950s. I published two monographs and co-edited two volumes on Hungarian and Central European women’s activism, Jewish assimilation and antisemitism, the intellectual migration from Hitler’s Europe, and gender and nationalism.  

I am interested in supervising M.A. and Ph.D. theses in all these areas.  

I am a member of two transnational projects on women’s activism across the political spectrum. My current research, on antisemitism in academia in East Central Europe and Hungarian Jewish women and families confronting antisemitism between 1920 and 1956 is the subject of two exhibitions in three languages, a monograph in progress, and an edited volume in press.
