Lymbus has been published since 2003 annually, in one volume. Its main aim is to present materials found during hungarica research, to authentically publish, translate and report on original sources, as far as text or language is concerned, as well as to present related research.
Published as a result of cooperation between Balassi Institute, Research Centre for the Humanities of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences, the National Archives of Hungary, International Association for Hungarian Studies and National Széchényi Library, Lymbus has been published since 2003 annually, in one volume. Occasionally, like e.g. it did in 2012-2013, it appears as a single yearbook of two years. Its main aim is to present materials found during hungarica research, to authentically publish, translate and report on original sources (e.g. Jagello-era charters in the present volume), as far as text or language is concerned, as well as to present related research.
The publication also provides an opportunity for researchers, who were granted a Klebelsberg Scholarship in the year previous to publication, to publish their research results. This is how essays by several staff members of National Széchényi Library have been published, together with releases of documents -- mainly from the period between 1526 and 1945 --, and their presentations annotated with philological accuracy. NSZL has been taking part in the editing of Lymbus since the very beginnings, in partnership with the academic institutions and workshops listed above.
