STUDIES - László Dányi: Belonging and Perspective: An Interpretation of Two Native American Short Stories

Hungarians as the ones who ride on horseback, eat goulash, and do not have peanut butter in the stores. If you observe characters and cultures from this perspective, the characters and you will never belong to that culture. Being at a place is not enough to appreciate its culture and perceive its significance. Only attachment to a place gives an abiding identity "because places associated with family, community, and history have depth."
