Abstrakt
The chapter deals with the issue of the perception of urban space by children, using the case of two young boys from the prominent Hungarian family who lived in Pest-Buda and often reflected on their urban experiences in the middle of the 1860s. The chapter examines three questions based on their manuscripts.
First, the representation of the city in their texts are analyzed. Second, those practices are pointed out, which belonged to their ordinary urban life and could be interpreted as "flanerie".
Finally, the impact of the childish viewpoint and the imitation of the journalist practices of the second half of the 19th century in their narratives are analyzed.
