Description of the content As a researcher and scholar, Lajos Vargyas' carrier is not only characterised by the pure fact that he has published twenty-four books and more than three-hundred scientific studies, but also by the enthusiastic and thorough research work in the field of folk music, folk ballads and prosody.
