A Hungarian poet, prose-writer, and journalist; born at Tapolcza, May 11, 1763; died at Linz, May 12, 1845. With Baroti and Kazinczy, he founded a journal, the Magyar Museum (1788), and was editor of the Magyar Minerva. Having translated Napoleon's proclamation to the Hungarians (1809), he was obliged to flee to Paris, whence he was extradited after Napoleon's fall, but was compelled to live at Linz.
