Count Albert Apponyi led the Hungarian delegation at the Paris Peace Conference, which culminated with the end of WWI. Though productive negotiations did not take place because of the Entente’s entrenched demands, Apponyi nonetheless gave his so-called védőbeszéd (a speech defending the territorial integrity of Hungary) on January 16th, 1920, which immediately became a succinct statement of belief for the revisionist movement. Despite his failure in Paris, as the embodiment of revisionism, he became a revered figure of the nation with whom every class of Hungarian society rejecting the Treaty of Trianon could identify. This cult of personality that the whole Hungarian nation embraced arose despite the unsuccessful efforts of the peace delegation and the bad memories associated with his divisive policies from the Era of the Dual Monarchy. This extreme reverence accompanied him through the Horthy Era as well. He was constantly celebrated, and through his public appearances, the people adored him. The first act of this process was a 3-day series of celebrations in May 1921, held on the occasion of his seventy-fifth birthday and his fiftieth year in public service. Regent Horthy, the National Assembly, the government, the municipal leadership of Budapest, numerous associations and individuals all wished him well. More than a hundred settlements awarded him honorary citizenship while several local governments renamed public spaces after him. St. Stephen’s Basilica, the National Assembly, the Vigadó and theaters throughout Budapest were among the venues holding celebrations for his birthday. Huge crowds lined up to pay their respects to the great man in the public spaces of the capital. These celebrations marked the debut of the Apponyi cult of personality; later it would add numerous other elements. In the work below, we wish to introduce the reader to the events of his seventy-fifth birthday.
