Talk:Bálint Balassa

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

[edit] Just one question

"...who wrote mostly in Hungarian, but also in Slovak". Could someone post a link of his Slovak works? These are totally unknown to me. And the Hungarian article (which is much more longer and complete) does not mention it. Thanks, Cserlajos (talk) (contribs) 10:45, 13 January 2007 (UTC)

Unfortunately, I can offer only a link in Slovak, but it is an excerpt originally published by the regional library of Zvolen: http://new.kskls.sk/domain/b5/files/eletronicke_dok/balassa.pdf. Tankred 02:08, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
Thanks, but in fact, it did not help me out. :( I'll check some English or Hungarian books/webpages/other things, anyway. Cserlajos (talk) (contribs) 14:47, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
According to the link posted above, Balassa authored the oldest known secular love poetry in the Slovak language and those poems can be found in Fanchali's Codex. I hope this helped. Cheers. Tankred 18:19, 15 January 2007 (UTC)
