Abstract

The first Hungarian poem was preserved in the 13th-century Codex of Leuven. The history of this codex is closely connected to the 20th-century history of the library of the University of Leuven. The library was set on fire by the German army in the summer of 1914. A set of books was given as a war compensation from Germany to Belgium in 1922; the Lamentations of Mary was discovered while these books were being sorted out. The whole collection of the library perished in 1940, but the Codex of Leuven survived the fire in a safe as it was found out by Géza Bárczi in 1947. The codex was brought home as a result of an exchange contract in 1982, and since then it has been kept in the National Széchényi Library.
