  • [abstract] As 1922 began, the Viennese Hungarian Activists were at the peak of their success. Exiled from Hungary after the collapse of the short-lived Soviet regime of 1919, they gathered in Vienna around the journal Ma [= Today (Budapest, 1916-19; Vienna, 1920-25)], its founder Lajos Kassak and his co-editors and brothers-in-law, the poet Sandor Barta and the artist Bela Uitz. Early in 1922, however, the Activists began to break away from Kassak and Ma, forming contending groups of artists and writers who founded their own journals. May 1922 saw the publication not only of a sumptuous double issue of Ma, but also of the first issue of Egyseg [= Unity (Vienna, 1922; Berlin, 1923-24; Vienna, 1924)], a rival journal co-edited by Uitz.
