Komárom, March Youths, Laborfalvi, The Man with the Golden Touch, Balatonfüred, Svábhegy – so many words calling to the writer-prince. On the occasion of Jókai's 200th birth anniversary, our library joins the Night of Museums with an exhibition that recalls the novelistic world of Jókai, the defining moments of his life and the spirit of his times.
The exhibition offers an insight into Mór Jókai's work as a writer, his contacts, his travels, the world of illustrations and publications of the time, and exciting stories that still influence our culture today.
Join us as we step into a world built of words in the 19th century – when stories were written by candlelight, but still light up today.
Date: 21 June 2025, 15.30–24.00 (continuous programme)
Venue: ELTE University Library and Archives, II. floor, Historical book storage
