  • ... that Tibor Wlassics, while forbidden from attending university, wrote a Hungarian translation of Federico García Lorca's Romancero gitano after working as a manual laborer? Source: "Tibor, after his studies in the lyceum, was forbidden to attend the university because he had been born in the wrong class, and worked as a coal miner, a bricklayer and finally, because of his linguistic ability, as a translator. Among other works, he translated into Hungarian Lorca's Gypsy Ballads." [https://www.brown.edu/Departments/Italian_Studies/LD/numbers/22-23/herrero.html Herrero]

  • {{yo|The Midnite Wolf|SL93}} 16px I think there's actually an opportunity for a pretty great hook here, if you'd hear me out? This disparity certainly caught my eye scrolling through the article. theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 22:34, 29 November 2022 (UTC)
  • ALT1: ... that Tibor Wlassics{{`s}} upper-class status forced him to work as a manual laborer instead of going to university?

:You're right, that's a lot more interesting imo. I'm fine with swapping it out The Midnite Wolf (talk) 23:15, 29 November 2022 (UTC)

:: 16px ALT1 needs review, then theleekycauldron (talkcontribs) (she/her) 05:30, 5 December 2022 (UTC)
