List of the largest Hungarian-language books
The following list lists the largest Hungarian-language books, taking into account the following criteria:
- the given work reaches 1000 printed pages (regardless of the volume number, the physical size of the pages), but there may be minor differences in the number of pages in different databases;
- original and translated works published in Hungarian in Hungary;[1]
- works published in print, in book circulation (i.e. excluding manuscript works).
The list includes several million books published from the medieval beginnings of Hungarian literature to the present day, and due to possible problems with the availability of their data, it cannot be considered complete. The list does not include book series, which can be found on the page entitled List of Hungarian book series.
