Summary/Abstract: The study of cults helps in solving special poetical problems, too. My lecture dedicated to Endre Ady's so called "kurucos" poems, tries to determine a formula of the connection between poetical events and those of a cult. The latter is not unknown for the contemporary reader who hasn't heard about Kálmán Thaly's not exactly legitim procedure. How he tried to raise the level of our not too worthy kuruc poetry by help of his own, that is false "kuruc" poems? As a conclusion I quote a poem by Ady written under the influence of Thaly.
