Miklós Wesselényi and the Transylvanian Museum

Summary/Abstract: 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.
