This book collects the epic and narrative poetry of the great 19th
century Magyar poet, J?nos Arany. Toldi is a lengthy epic poem
based on Magyar folk legends, telling the story of a 14th century
legendary hero. Arany (1817 - 1882), the son of an impoverished
noble, is considered one of the founders of modern Hungarian
poetry. He was an actor, notary, editor, and professor of Hungarian
literature at the Nagy-Koros college. His first masterpiece, Toldi
(1846), an epic of classical popular realism, earned him national
recognition. Toldi's name is derived from a 14th-century Hungarian
folk hero Toldi Miklos. Toldi Miklos is to Hungary, as Robin Hood
is to England.
