Csokonai Vitéz Mihály, Hungary's preeminent Enlightenment poet, died in 1805 at thirty-two — impoverished, rejected by the literary establishment, and denied a church burial in Debrecen until public outcry forced a reversal. His work was too vernacular, too influenced by Western rationalism, for the conservative Calvinist clergy who dominated Hungarian cultural life at the time. The commemorative program honoring him reflects a long rehabilitation that took the better part of two centuries.
