| Summary |
"Román népdalok és balladák" by Gergely Moldován is a collection of Romanian folk songs and ballads translated into Hungarian, likely written in the late 19th century. The work aims to introduce these pieces of Romanian oral tradition into Hungarian literature, showcasing the cultural ties and shared heritage between the two nations. Through its translations, it seeks to honor both Romanian and Hungarian folk artistry. The opening of this collection includes a preface in which the translator expresses his respect for the Romanian national heritage and his admiration for the Hungarian literary tradition. It features various folk ballads, each capturing deep emotions and narratives, such as love, betrayal, and familial bonds, often wrapped in rich symbolism and local folklore. Characters like Erdélyi Anna and Toma emerge in the early verses, revealing themes of passion, jealousy, and the tragic consequences of love through poetic dialogue and vivid imagery, setting the tone for an exploration of Romanian cultural narratives.
