My research project focuses on women's education in the first half of the 20th century. I started to approach the topic from the perspective of the Jesuit order, and more recently I have focused on the social problems of young girls moving from rural to urban areas, mainly by exploring church, organisational and state initiatives to eradicate the trafficking of girls. My aim is to develop local case studies and thus present the issue as thoroughly as possible.

In my research project, I investigate the long-term interactions and exchanges between orality and literacy. My aim is to better understand the social embeddedness, actualisation and use of each text type.

My topic is research on the lifehistory of female domestic servants between the two world wars in Hungary. Most of them moved from the village to the city to work. We know from contemporary statistics that about a third of all legal and illegal prostitutes were urban maids. My aim is to uncover as many of these life stories as possible and to link them to the social problems of the time and the life stories of war widows and fallen girls.
