A foundational collection of Hungarian folk beliefs, superstitions, and magical practices. It documents oral traditions, mythological remnants, and the spiritual life of the Hungarian peasantry in the mid-19th century. The work stems from Ipolyi's extensive early efforts to preserve the native Hungarian mythological heritage before modernization.
