Abstract

The Synopsis of János Baranyai Decsi – János Baranyai Decsi defended his theses on Aristotelian philosophy in Strasbourg, probably in 1590. The examining president was Johannes Ludovicus Hawenreuter. The “Synopsis Philosophiae…” of Decsi is presumably his series of examination theses (“Thesarium”). It is shows many parallels with Hawenreuther’s textbooks on the same subject. In the Politics section of the Synopsis we find a number of alliterations and assonances reminiscent of the style of Sallust. Decsi was the first to translate Sallust into Hungarian. These figures may have been the individual contribution of the author who had an interest in aphorisms and adages.
