Reference excerpt

The Sándor Petőfi Memorial (Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈʃaːndor ˈpɛtøːfi]; Polish: Pomnik Sándora Petőfiego; Hungarian: Petőfi Sándor szobor) is a monument in Warsaw, Poland, placed in the Górczewska Park, within the Bemowo district. It consists of a bust sculpture of Sándor Petőfi, a 19th-century poet and liberal revolutionary, who was one of the key figures of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848. It was designed by Jerzy Teper, and unveiled on 14 March 2013.

History The monument dedicated to Sándor Petőfi, was proposed by the Association of Hungarian–Polish Friendship Societies, and was financed by the Foundation for Culture and Art Beyond Borders and the Minister of Foreign Affairs of Hungary. The sculpture was designed by Jerzy Teper. It was unveiled on 14 March 2013, a day prior to the 165th anniversary of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, in which Petőfi fought. It was also the anniversary of the birth of Józef Bem, who was the general commanding Petőfi, and is the namesake of the Bemowo city district, in which the monument is placed in. The unveiling ceremony was attended by Sándor Lezsák, the Deputy Speaker of the National Assembly, Miklós Csomós, the deputy mayor of Budapest, and Balázs Bús, the mayor of Óbuda-Békásmegyer, a district in Budapest, which has a cooperation agreement with Bemowo, Iván Gyurcsík, the ambassador of Hungary to Warsaw, Marek Kuchciński, the Deputy Marshal of the Sejm, as well several members of the Sejm, including Mariusz Błaszczak, Małgorzata Gosiewska, and Piotr Naimski.

Worked examples

Example 1 — a first encounter with Sándor Petőfi Memorial

Start with the simplest possible case. Write down what Sándor Petőfi Memorial claims or describes in one sentence, then invent the smallest concrete situation in which that sentence is true. In biology, the smallest case is usually a single object, a single equation or a single measurement. Check that every symbol or term in your sentence has a meaning in that case.

Example 2 — changing one variable

Take the situation from Example 1 and change exactly one quantity: double it, halve it, or set it to zero. Predict what should happen to Sándor Petőfi Memorial before you calculate. Comparing your prediction with the result is the fastest way to find out whether you understand the idea or only the words.

Example 3 — an exam-style question

Typical questions about Sándor Petőfi Memorial ask you to (a) state it precisely, (b) apply it to given data, and (c) explain a limitation. Practise writing all three answers in under five minutes; the third part is what separates a full-mark answer from an average one.

Applications of Sándor Petőfi Memorial

In research: Sándor Petőfi Memorial appears in biology research whenever the underlying quantities have to be modelled precisely. Papers usually cite it as a starting assumption and then explore where it breaks down.
In technology and industry: Engineering practice reuses Sándor Petőfi Memorial in design rules, simulations and safety margins. Knowing the idea lets you read a specification sheet and understand why the numbers look the way they do.
In the classroom: Sándor Petőfi Memorial is common in secondary-school and first-year university syllabi. It links to neighbouring topics 2013 establishments in Poland, 2013 sculptures, Bemowo, so understanding it makes those chapters shorter.
In everyday life: Look for Sándor Petőfi Memorial outside the textbook — in sport, cooking, traffic, electronics or the sky above you. An example you found yourself is remembered far longer than one you were given.
