One of the greatest metaphysical thinkers of the 20th century, Béla Hamvas (23 March 1897 – 7 November 1968), due to his wide range of interests, studied literature, cultural history, history of science, psychology, philosophy and Eastern Asian languages. He was a non-conformist, whose aesthetic views were attacked by György Lukács, resulting in the banning of his works from publication after 1947. Most of his writings were published posthumously, beginning from the early 1980s.
