The literature depicting Lake Balaton is just as rich and diverse as the present thematic issue of Literary Journal presenting it: the informative articles and artistic literary works describe among other topics the baths around Lake Balaton, the love affairs, friendships, anecdotes and jokes related to it, and also storms and tragic events.

The authors quoted and referred by this issue include: Mihály Vörösmarty, Mihály Csokonai Vitéz, Dániel Berzsenyi, Sándor Kisfaludy, Mór Jókai, Attila József, Frigyes Karinthy, Ferenc Móra, Ágnes Nemes Nagy, Gyula Illyés, Gyula Takáts, Sándor Tatay.

Apart from the texts there are plenty of illustrations published: graphic works, photos and paintings of renowned artists like István Csók and József Egry.

Literary Journal, a quarterly joint publication of Magyar Napló and National Széchényi Library is a richly illustrated magazine of more than 100 pages, primarily dedicated to the broad audience, but also well usable as educational  material. Its thematic issues always focus on one classical author, period of literary history or cultural phenomenon. Apart from including texts so far unpublished, Literary Journal can also significantly broaden the horizon of re-reading. The previous issues were dedicated to Gyula Illyés, Sándor Márai, Géza Gárdonyi, Gyula Krúdy and Miklós Zrínyi.
