Déryné Róza Széppataki
Déryné Róza Széppataki ( Rozália Schenbach; 23 December 1793, Jászberény - 29 September 1872, Miskolc), known as Déryné, was the first acclaimed female opera singer of Hungary and the best-known actress of early Hungarian theater. Early life Rozália Schenbach was the daughter of Nina Riedl and Josef Schenbach, an apothecary from Vienna who settled in Jászberény. Her father died when she was five. She joined the National Players Company of Pest. Career Waiting behind the curtains for her first small role, she was blocked by the director, at the behest of the older actresses, who thought she “looked and acted foolishly,” from being allowed on stage. Crying for days after this first disappointment, Rozália was taken in the care of Mrs. and Mr. Murányi, a couple who taught her the basics of acting.

Jászberény
Jászberény is a city and market centre in Jász-Nagykun-Szolnok county in Hungary. Location Jászberény is located in central Hungary, on the Zagyva River, a tributary of the Tisza River. It is about from Budapest. History The oldest archeological finds from the Jászság, the area around Jászberény, originate from nomadic people of the stone-age and date back 16500 years B.C. Excavations (2002) in Jászberény and Jásztelek aiming for traces of the hunter and gatherers of the Mesolithic in the northern part of the Great Hungarian Plain by Róbert Kertész detected distinct indications of settlements. During this period, the climate in the region began to warm up. Thus, the ice-age coniferous forests were gradually replaced by deciduous forests, the eco-system changed and a new fauna was established in the Carpathian basin. Under the pressure of climate change, the formerly nomadic people settled down. Traces from that time indicate that people actively planted ...

19th-century Hungarian Women Opera Singers
The 19th century began on 1 January 1801 (represented by the Roman numerals MDCCCI), and ended on 31 December 1900 (MCM). It was the 9th century of the 2nd millennium. It was characterized by vast social upheaval. Slavery was abolished in much of Europe and the Americas. The First Industrial Revolution, though it began in the late 18th century, expanded beyond its British homeland for the first time during the 19th century, particularly remaking the economies and societies of the Low Countries, France, the Rhineland, Northern Italy, and the Northeastern United States. A few decades later, the Second Industrial Revolution led to ever more massive urbanization and much higher levels of productivity, profit, and prosperity, a pattern that continued into the 20th century. The Catholic Church, in response to the growing influence and power of modernism, secularism and materialism, formed the First Vatican Council in the late 19th century to deal with such problems and confirm ce ...
