Biography His father was Mór Dux, a leather merchant who went bankrupt during the War of Independence. His mother was Róza Rosenberg. His father, after the assets of unfortunate companies were completely ruined during the War of Independence, moved with his family to Németkeresztúr and joined the shop of his brother-in-law, Mór Rosenberg as a business manager. From there, his son Lajos went to Nagykanizsa to see Mrs. Lövinger, his mother's sister, in whose elementary Jewish school he completed the six elementary classes; then in Keresztúr he was initiated into the Talmudic sciences by the teacher of the village. In 1856, his parents sent him to the grammar school in Sopron, where he became the leader of the youth together with Jenő Rákosi. After completing his secondary school studies, he studied law at the University of Vienna and became a member of the editorial board of the Presse. He reported on the coronation to the Presse, and his articles caused a great sensation.

Works Dóczy's reputation rests not on the services he rendered to the state, but on his achievements as a dramatic writer and as a translator. His plays were staged one after the other: The Last Prophet (dealing with the destruction of Jerusalem, premiered in Buda in 1869); Kiss (Teleky Prize-winning comedy, National Theatre, 1874; Burgtheater 1877); Last Love (comedy, National Theatre 1884; Burgtheater 1885); Mária Széchy (historical drama, National Theatre 1886); Mixed Couples (comedy, National Theatre, 1889); Countess Vera (tragedy). He made himself famous with his translation of Faust (1872) in 1887, when the National Theatre performed it in Hungarian for the first time in his translation. However, he was the seventh to translate Imre Madách's The Tragedy of Man (1892, premiered in Hamburg) into German. His comedy Princess Ellinor (1896) won the Teleki Prize. He was a contributor to all the significant Hungarian-language literary and daily newspapers of the time. His writings published in the Neues Pester Journal under the pseudonym Tobiás Onkel were especially popular. Other works: Anonymous Letters to Kálmán Tisza (1872); Poems (1890); Tales and Sketches (1890); Carmela Spadaro (short story, 1890); The complete poems of Friedrich Schiller (1902); Wallenstein trilogy (for the National Theatre, 1904);…Citește mai mult

Career After finishing his preliminary education he studied law in Vienna, joining at the same time the staff of Die Presse. His political articles, which advocated the "Ausgleich" (agreement) with Austria, were very favorably received, and on the recommendation of Balthasar Horváth, then Minister of Justice, he was appointed (1868) clerk in the office of the prime minister. When Count Julius Andrássy became minister of foreign affairs (1872) Dóczy accompanied him to Vienna, and was soon appointed "Sectionsrath", and later "Hofrath", at the Foreign Office. In 1899, he was elevated to the rank of baron, and in 1902, retired from public life. He resided in Deutschkreutz and Budapest.
