Abstract
The personal library of János Honti (1910-1945), Hungarian folklorist and folktale researcher, was catalogued in 2015, at the Library and Information Centre of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences. The collection contains about 40 volumes signed by their authors, most of whom were members of the Stemma, the intellectual circle founded by the classical philologist Karl Kerényi. This paper presents the signed copies of the Honti-collection.
