... Most pedig Az eredetképpen való Magyar Kézírásokból kiadta Kultsár István.
Szombathelyen, 1794. Siess Antal Jósef ny. (8)+490+(1)p. First edition.
It is the first and the most significant piece of the epistolary genre in Hungary, which was fashionable throughout Europe in the 18th century and one of the milestones of Hungarian literary history. Because the manuscript disappeared for a long time, it was finally published with a foreword of István Kultsár and with the title given by him (the author originally entitled as "Constantinapolyban Groff P... E... irot leveli M... K...").
Later half cloth. Spine worn. With wormholes on title page.
Poss.: with the stamp of Dr Balázs Konkoly Thege’s collection on the title page.
