Starting in 1971, I attended the English Philology Institute of the University of Warsaw, Department of Foreign Languages. As I had a few years of experience as a student of theatrical arts in Hungary, I started to translate Polish and English plays and poems into Hungarian, partly on the request of Hungarian theaters. I worked on translations of some of the best known Elizabethan plays, including works of Thomas Dekker, John Fletcher and Francis Beaumont's The Knight of the Burning Pestle.
