In the middle ages the cultural life happened in the monasteries, castles, palaces, later in the the cities, universities. The first codex copying workshops could be established in the 11th century. At first latin was the only language used in Europe .

what was „ the literature” like in that time?
There were some categories: Annales written from different events, Cronic, which contained the current history and „Gesta” in which can be read stories about war, political events , sometimes in a singing way with a simple musical instrument. The scene of these heroe-songs could be occured in the knight’s castle. The wanderring knights spread these cultural events all over the country and Europe .

Two Franciscan monks- two travellers
Temesvári Pelbárt (1440—1504) and Laskai Osvát (1450—1511) collected the speeches from the early ages. In those centuries their collection was already written in Hungarian in The „Erdy-codex”

Julianus barát (Fancier Julianus)
Julianus was one of the most famous Hungarian travellers who travelled a lot to find the first home of the Hungarians, and our ancestors. In our booklet we will introduce him in details.

The first Hungarian printed book
The first Hungarian printed book was made in 1472 in Buda called Cronica Hungarorum together with some other codexes, like „Jokai-codex, „Erdy-codex etc. After the first printing workshop established in Buda by the German Andreas Hess printed books were read parallel with the handwritten copy –books.

10
Sebestyén tinódi lantos- Music
He attended various schools and studied Latin, and excelled at sheet music. In 1539 he was wounded in a battle, which rendered him ineligible for further military service. In 1541, when Turks invaded, it made a big impression on him. He became a political poet at this time, his works expressing the need to resist the Turks. Sebestyén Tinódi Lantos (1510 –1556)
11
Sebestyén tinódi lantos travels
Sebestyén often travelled to visit parliament sessions and scenes of battles in the country and abroad, and wrote verses about these. He then began to put his poems to music and performed them with a lute, which lead to his nickname, "Lantos" - the lute-player. His songs became recognized as an important chronicalization of the events. In 1553, he was formally recognized by the king as a chronicler. His poem "Magyarország siratása" has been translated into Japanese.
12
Bálint bakfark ( ) He was a Hungarian and Polish composer of Saxon origin, and lutenist of the Renaissance. He was very influential as a lutenist in his time, and renowned as a master of the instrument. He was born in Brassó-Transylvania, and was educated in Buda . He possibly traveled to Italy during this time.
13
Bálint bakfark travels
In the 1540s he travelled to Paris, but, finding the position of lutenist to the king filled, he left for Poland in 1549, where he was employed as a court lutenist. From then until 1566, he travelled extensively around Europe, with his renown increasing, but remained faithful to his employer in spite of numerous efforts by other monarchs to win him away. After this, he lived for a while in Vienna, and then returned to Transylvania, but not for long; in 1571 he moved to Padua, in Italy, where he remained until his death during the plague of 1576. As was common practice at the time, all the possessions of plague victims were destroyed by fire, so most of his manuscript music was lost.
