Summary: "A kőszivű ember fiai (1. rész): Regény" by Mór Jókai is a novel written in the late 19th century. The story unfolds in a historical context, likely featuring themes of family, legacy, and societal expectations, and centers around the character Baradlay Kazimir, a man facing his mortality while considering the future of his family. The opening of the novel presents a lavish banquet where guests are toasting Baradlay Kazimir, while unbeknownst to them, he is gravely ill. Shortly after the toast begins, the family physician discreetly informs Kazimir's wife that he has just sixty minutes left to live. As the guests indulge in festivities, Kazimir has a poignant conversation with his wife, Marie, about their children and the future he envisions for them after his death. He delegates responsibilities to his sons, each destined for different paths: diplomacy, military, and civil service, all while hinting at his own regrets and the sacrifices he made over the years. The dramatic interplay between the lively celebrations and Kazimir’s impending death creates a compelling contrast that sets the tone for the unfolding narrative.
