Abstract:
The paper aims to examine and interpret literary portrayals of the First World War in diary novels (Gábor Darvas), memoires (Rodion Markovits, Artúr Munk, Geiza Farkas), authentic diaries (Artúr Munk) and reminiscences (József Kozma) in Hungarian literature. Among these are bestsellers (Artúr Munk), confessions in novel form (Gábor Darvas), and a diary published on the occasion of the centenary (József K.). In the comparative analysis the relating novels of Jaroslav Hašek, Ernest Hemingway and Erich Maria Remarque are introduced as world literary points of reference.
