["anything may come": alcohol addiction through Sándor Weöres' oeuvre and life facts].

Abstract

Sándor Weöres is well-known as the poetrist, who has been generous not only to children but also to elderly readers. Children's poems play a huge role in his oeuvre, he has been able to become one with the world of children and use their language authentically. Being connected with childhood is probably particularly profound and is not only the source of inspiration. Weöres has suffered from neuasthenia and alcohol addiction, the regression behind addiction may indirectly reflect to childhood (1). It raises the questions of how addiction is related to his poetry, and how poetry and life facts reflect to each other. The author also aims to explore the coexistence of alcohol addiction and codependency through the poetrist's letters, interviews and present the wider context of alcohol addiction through his art.
