Summary/Abstract: The discussion dedicated to the memory of literary historian and university professor Éva Cs. Gyimesi focuses on two of her major works, Álom és értelem (Dream and Reason) and Gyöngy és homok (Pearl and Sand), which are examined from multiple perspectives. Participants include faculty members from the Hungarian Literary Studies Department of the Babeș-Bolyai University — István Berszán, Zalán Serestély, Csilla Gábor, Gyöngyi Orbán, Enikő Molnár Bodrogi, Anna Farmati, Imre József Balázs, Anna Ábrahám, and Márta Zabán — whose contributions aim to situate Gyimesi’s thought within broader cultural and theoretical contexts. A key question that connects both volumes in discussion: the problematics of Transylvanism, explored as a critical framework for understanding identity, regional consciousness, and intellectual tradition in Transylvanian Hungarian literature. The roundtable thus continues the dialogue on Gyimesi’s legacy as a thinker bridging regional identity and universal human inquiry.
