The oeuvre of Iohannes Filiczki de Filefalva (ca. 1583–1622) is almost completely unknown in Hungarian literary history, although some of his contemporaries called him the “second Ovid”.
After a decade and a half of his peregrination in Germany and Switzerland, he returned to Hungary around May 1616, and worked as an assistant professor at the Calvinist school of Sárospatak. In 1622, he became the rector but died of the plague in August of the same year.
The current volume is publishing the critical edition of Filiczki’s known poetic works. This volume will be available free of charge both in printed and in pdf format.
