Lajos Kassák’s major poem, The Horse Dies the Birds Fly off was usually interpreted in the context of other long size poems of world literature, written by Blaise Cendrars, Guillaume Apollinaire and others. The author of the article argues that other possible relevant contexts of the poem emerge when examining pieces of poetry published in Kassák’s journals – shorter dadaist poems by Cendrars or Schwitters that does not stand out with their size. Following the ethnographic sources of Cendrars’s dada poetry, the author highlights possible similarities between the functioning of Kassák’s and Cendrars’s texts when using seemingly exotic linguistic material.

A kiváló tanító, a híres alkalmi költő és szorgalmas gyűjtő Tiboldi István
In my essay I attempt to unfold the everyday life of István Tiboldi (1792–1880), the Transylvanian Unitarian teacher, occasional poet and collector of folk poetry, based on the available sources. I show that despite the scarce sources we can still draw a complex picture of him along the lines of his assumed roles, examining him in the light of these interacting roles. I am attempting to show how he became well-known throughout Transylvania despite the fact that he was only a teacher first in a middle-sized, later a small village, primarily wrote his occasional poems for his students, and participated in collecting only in his spare time.

The paper focuses on the puritan priest, András Tarpai Szilágyi’s funeral oration: Jól meg halásnak mestersége, presented in 1659 at the funeral of Moktsai Balázs and printed (published) at Kassa in 1668. Until now, Tarpai’s work was unknown. The oration presents the condition of dying well – based on the puritan ethics and pietism.

Danyi Magdolna korai költészetének beszédmódozatai
The aim of this essay is to map the most prominent features of Magdolna Danyi’s early volume, Sötéttiszta (1975). I propose some possible interpretations which have not been put forth yet. I highlight thematic-motivic correspondences and the poet’s exploration of the objective world’s defining components. Further, I reflect on the ways in which the various modes of poetic diction exhibited in the volume might fit into contemporary Hungarian lyric poetry. Finally, I consider the dialogic nature of Danyi’s poetry, and try to address the problem of the subject’s self-divisive processes. If we are to create an accurate picture of Magdolna Danyi’s early approach to poetry, we have to study her special diction, which aspires to objectivity and subjectivity at the same time.

Wesselényi Miklós és az Erdélyi Muzéum
Although the political activity of Miklós Wesselényi is circumstantially known in the history via Zsolt Trócsányi’s monograph, the research of his literary pursuit did not tone. Though Gábor Csaba Dávid literary historian published his three unknown writings, we do not know much about his belletristic work. The present study examines the young baron’s literary interest in the era of his studies in Cluj, his relationship with Gábor Döbrentei, the founder of the Erdélyi Muzéum [Transylvanian Musem], and with the help of several unknown sources it outlines Wesselényi’s literary ambition and motivation.

Idegenségtapasztalat és énformálás Bethlen Miklós önéletírásában
The autobiography of Miklós Bethen (1642–1716), a Transylvanian statesman and memorial writer, titled Bethlen Miklós élete leírása magától [The Self-Portrayal of the Life of Miklós Bethlen], written during the time of his captivity, presents an accurate portrayal of his studies in Transylvania, while dedicating multiple chapters to his pilgrimage, including travelling to England, France and Venice in his youth. The three trips ending the first volume of his autobiography differ from each other in numerous respects, but each of them maintains the textual conventions characteristic of the descriptions of European learning pilgrimages (peregrinatio academica) of his times. Miklós Bethlen – as opposed to travellers of the 18th century who mainly kept diaries or wrote letters recounting their experiences – chronicled his experiences several decades after they took place. The retrospective distance, however, does not dissolve the sense of alliennes, but rather emphasizes it. In my paper, I explore the manifestations of the sense of alienness in the descriptions of his pilgrimage, as well as the incorporation of these manifestations into the self. I propose that the literacy and perspective gained during his trips abroad might have had an effect on the formation of the autobiographical self, but beyond this, that it also had an effect on the structuring of the text itself. The manifestations of aliennes could represent the basis of the analysis of the plane of self-representation in the autobiography. The possibility of applying the results of the studies of apodemica in interpreting the influence of the era on the autobiography, or in interpreting the autobiography in the European context arises. Namely, the personal travel instructions intended for the greater general public do no only influence the course of the pilgrimage itself, but also the manner of recording those experiences.

Kolozsvári Papp László Vénasszony-történetei
In my essay I analyse two short novels that are the part of an unfinished literary cycle (The Crone’s Stories) and published only in literary papers. The reason why they have not previously been examined by any researchers is perhaps that only The Crone’ Second Story and The Crone’s Third Story were published (and only in reverse order due to the author’s conception of the works), while The Crone’s First Story was never published. In my study I compare the two texts through the examination of the narrator and narrative techniques, thematic and historical details as well as the fantastical elements and the characteristics of magic realism. With these thematic and poetic attributes, I try to illustrate some ways of interpreting of the Crone’s Stories.
