Summary/Abstract: Mihály Czine played an important role in the 20th century Hungarian literature. His treatment of literary themes emphasized the problem of Hungarian identity, of community values. He was interested fundamentally in four aspects: the plebean writers of the Nyugat group (Zsigmond Móricz and Endre Ady), the so-called "popular" writers (Gyula Illyés, László Németh, Áron Tamási, Pál Szabó, Péter Veres) the representatives of the new generation (Ferenc Juhász, László Nagy, István Simon, Sándor Csoóri, Imre Sarkadi) and the minority writers from the neighbouring countries (Károly Kós, Edgár Balogh, András Sütő, Zoltán Fábry, László Dobos).
