Summary "A babonák könyve" by János Varga is a treatise on superstitions written in the late 19th century. This work examines the prevalence and implications of superstitious beliefs among the Hungarian people, critiquing their impact on societal well-being and rational thought. The author aims to provide a comprehensive collection of common superstitions, illustrating their harmful effects through examples, while advocating for education and enlightenment to combat these beliefs. The opening of "A babonák könyve" begins with an introduction emphasizing the necessity of addressing superstitions for societal development and education. Varga argues that a nation's culture cannot thrive if its folk wisdom is neglected. He labels superstition as a dangerous weed that hinders progress and moral standards. The author states that, while superstitions are deeply rooted in tradition, they can be ridiculed and debunked through literature and scientific reasoning. Varga outlines his intention to document prevalent superstitions, illuminate their absurdity, and provide readers with a scientific understanding of the natural phenomena they misinterpret, thereby debunking the myths that have persisted over the centuries.
