He spent some time in concentration camp for his support of workers and his "strong nationalism". Gubbubu

I haven't heard that before or anything like this, none of his hungarian biographies states anything like this (he kept in contact with nationalist movements, but he never spent a minute in work camps, I think - but that is true he was prohibited to publish his works). I think this is a missinterpretation or misstranslation, no serious source I've found. Gubbubu 12:55, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Some of the page's text is somewhat mis-translated.

[edit]

There are some mis-translations on the page, kind of.. word-by-word rendering of the Hungarian text. E.g.: "Ego csipkebokor" is rendered as "flaming thorn". A native English speaker would probably understand "Burning bush" better.

Also "Criticas" (?) the author probably means Kodolany's works of "literary criticism"

I would not mind touching up the text here and there, along these lines, but I would do so only if encouraged by the author.
