Eötvös, József

    0.15 sec.

Eötvös, József (1813–1871)

Hungarian politician and writer. He supported liberal reforms, including religious tolerance and the widening of education. His novels and essays promote these ideas. Among his works are A karthausi/The Carthusians 1839, A falu jegyzöje/The Village Notary 1845, and Magyarország 1514-ben/Hungary in 1514 1847. Eötvös was minister for education in the revolutionary government of 1848, but resigned and went abroad when liberal reforms were suppressed later that year (see revolutions of 1848).
