Old writings still interesting today – P. Vas János’ column. Here are 3 short pieces by Morvay Judit: Old Women (according to old peasant law: if someone doesn’t work, they don’t deserve bread); The Extended Family (a tiny thatched roof house with various farm buildings often housed an extended family of 20-30 people); Generations (the behavior of village folks ’some time ago’ was strictly regulated by the rules of the community – each age group had to live up to certain expectations). These pieces are about old ways that were tough, but practical for the impoverished, rural society. From "Kis magyar néprajz a rádióban". Budapest, 1978.
