Élet és Irodalom (also known as ÉS; meaning Life and Literature in English) is a weekly Hungarian magazine about literature and politics.
Élet és Irodalom was first published as a literary magazine on 15 March 1957. [1] In the 1960s its content expanded to include issues of public life in addition to literature. [1] The magazine is published on Fridays and is based in Budapest. [1] It is regarded as, "the premier weekly of the Hungarian liberal literati." [2]
Élet és Irodalom was one of the independent publications in Hungary in the late 1990s. [3] The magazine is considered a postmodernist and politically left liberal [1] periodical, politically close to the left-wing parties such as Hungarian Socialist Party and Alliance of Free Democrats. The magazine offers investigative reports about the scandals occurred in the country. [3] [4]
In the 1980s, the circulation of Élet és Irodalom was nearly 120,000 copies. [1] It was 27,000 copies in 2007. [1]
