Pictures of László Hadrovics and Ágoston Pável enrich the ELTE EKL Savaria Library and Archives

The ELTE EKL Savaria Library and Archives has been enriched with two new pictures. Professor László Hadrovics' painting complements the linguist's library legacy. A photographic reproduction of Ágoston Pável from 1911 has been placed in the memorial room of the poet, linguist and ethnographer. 

The library collection of linguist László Hadrovics (1910–1997) has been supplemented with a painting depicting the professor, who began his professional career at the University Library in Budapest. The Hadrovics collection is accompanied with a painting by the college’s former lecturer, artist János Horváth. 

 

László Hadrovics

 

The photograph of Ágoston Pável (1886–1946) was taken in 1911. A reproduction of the portrait has been placed in the memorial room of the linguist, poet and ethnographer. From 1924 until his death, Ágoston Pável worked as the custodian of the Szombathely Museum Library. Through his work, the books were categorized and the collection was continuously expanded, laying the foundation for the later independent library in Szombathely. Further details about his work are available on the website of the institution now known as the Berzsenyi Dániel Library.
