Hi everyone, I am brand new to this sub. My dad is from Hungary but left when he was very young during the revolution. I am wanting to learn more about Hungarian history, traditions, culture, music, art, and literature. Anything and everything! Do you have any recommended starting points for me in my learning in terms of books, websites, or documentaries? Even Hungarian authors in classical literature or poetry. I am wanting to get the best sense of the culture I can without having visited myself. (I would love to visit one day, but it is not in the cards for a while yet.) Thank you so much in advance for your help! (I do not speak Hungarian, so hopefully I’ll be able to find translated versions of the recommendations!)

My dad has been sharing what he can with me: lots of music and dances he enjoys finding online…. He remembers one poet he liked. We have lots of beautiful embroidery and a traditional boy’s vest, and a full skirt and top outfit for a girl. (The pleats, oh my goodness!) Some dolls my grandma gave me…. The artistry is phenomenal.
