Abstract
János Baranyai Decsi was one of the most versatile Hungarian Humanists of his age. His first work, Hodoeporicon (1587) is a travelogue describing a trip from Transylvania to Wittenberg. He spent two and a half years in Wittenberg, somewhat in the shadow of his wealthy studentcompanion, Ferenc Bánffi Losonci. In 1590 the Hungarians transferred to the University of Strasbourg and it was there that Baranyai Decsi’s creative activity fully unfolded. Apart fom writing numerous Latin poems, he helped to publish in Basle an important Protestant treatise (probably written by Demeter Krakkai), as well as producing his own work in Strasbourg (Synopsis philosophiae, 1591). Baranyai Decsi corresponded with J. J. Grynaeus and was influenced both by Johann L. Havenreuter and Denis Godofrey, while his scholarly work shows parallels with that of Nicholas Reusner’s.
