The National Széchényi Library states that Arany János's Toldi was published in 1847. The page also notes that this work made Arany famous, indicating that Toldi is the poem that launched his literary reputation.

The Hungarian literary career began in 1845 with the satirical epic *Az elveszett alkotmány*, but Arany became truly famous with the narrative poem *Toldi* written in 1846. The page also states that the most important and earliest phase of his poetic career is marked by *Az elveszett alkotmány* (1845) and *Toldi* (1846), not by 1847 alone.

The National Széchényi Library’s text presents *Toldi* as a work from 1846 and shows the trilogy sequence with *Toldi Estéje* listed as 1847–48. This supports that *Toldi* preceded the later continuation, but it does not itself say that Arany’s poetic career began with *Toldi*.

Toldi is Arany János's narrative poem and the page gives its publication date as 1847. It says the poem made its author well known and brought him to Petőfi Sándor's attention.

A pedagogical page on Arany's oeuvre states that Toldi was first published in 1847 and that it made Arany a celebrated poet. This is consistent with the claim that the work belongs to the start of his poetic career.

The page says that Arany's Toldi appeared in 1847 and that it won the Kisfaludy Society competition. The wording indicates that this poem was the breakthrough work associated with Arany's rise.

This article says the manuscript was completed in October 1846 and that *Toldi* was printed in 1847. It also says the poem’s success brought Arany to the forefront of literature, after which Petőfi and Vahot sought him out.

This result says that Arany's Toldi was published in 1847 and that it won the Kisfaludy Society's prize, after which Arany suddenly became a celebrated poet. It directly links the poem and the year 1847 to his literary breakthrough.

The page states that Toldi was written for a competition in 1846, won the contest, and brought Arany nationwide recognition. This supports the chronology that the work belongs to the mid-1840s breakthrough period rather than a later phase.

His satirical poem The Lost Constitution (1845) was followed by his epic Toldi (1846, tr. 1914), to which he added Toldi’s Eve (1854) and Toldi’s Love (1879).

Arany's literary career began with epic poetry, and the Toldi trilogy is given as *Toldi* (1847), *Toldi estéje* (1854), and *Toldi szerelme* (1879). The page also says that Arany's artistic career-opening works were *Az elveszett alkotmány* (1845) and *Toldi* (1846).

In 1847, he won the competition of the Kisfaludy Society (Kisfaludy Társaság) with his writing, "Az elveszett alkotmány" ("The lost constitution" in English). After Toldi, one of his most famous works, was published, he and Sándor Petőfi became close friends.

In 1847, Arany won a writing contest held by the Kisfaludy Society. His winning work was called "Az elveszett alkotmány" (which means "The lost constitution"). After his famous work, Toldi, was published, he became close friends with another great Hungarian poet, Sándor Petőfi.

The catalog entry lists the work as *Toldi* (1846), *Toldi estéje* (1847–48), and *Toldi szerelme* (1879), indicating that *Toldi* is the earliest item in the series and the first major *Toldi* poem associated with Arany.

The manuscript evidence says the work was finished on October 23, 1846, and Arany won the Kisfaludy Society prize for *Toldi* in February 1847. This places the work's creation in 1846, with recognition and publication tied to 1847.

When I told my grandfather that I was writing about Toldi, he closed his eyes and began reciting the first lines of János Arany’s 1846 epic poem. (Those familiar with Hungarian history will notice that Toldi was published merely two years before the 1848-1849 revolution and war of independence.)

Toldi (1847), Toldi szerelme (1848–79; “Toldi’s Love”), and Toldi estéje (1854; “Toldi’s Evening”). Its hero, a youth of great physical strength, is taken from a verse chronicle written by Péter Ilosvai Selymes in the 16th century.

This source lists *Toldi Estéje 1847–1848* within Arany János’s collected poems, showing that Arany’s *Toldi* cycle continued after the original *Toldi* work.

Arany's artistic breakthrough is described as coming from *Toldi*, written in 1846, and the site says that after its success he soon began composing *Toldi estéje*. It characterizes *Az elveszett alkotmány* (1845) and *Toldi* (1846) as the works that marked his artistic start.

Arany wrote *Toldi* in 1846, and the work was published in 1847, when he suddenly became famous. The page says the poem brought him Petőfi's friendship and was written for the Kisfaludy Society's competition.

Arany's poetic career is divided into phases, with the first phase identified as the beginning, especially the two narrative poems *Toldi* (1846) and *Toldi estéje*. The page explicitly states that his artistic career began with *Az elveszett alkotmány* and *Toldi*.

Quotation: Toldi / An Epic Poem (1846) by János Arany. English translation: Watson Kirkconnel in collaboration with Tivadar Edl.

Arany won the Kisfaludy Society's prize in February 1847 with *Toldi*, but the poem itself was completed in late 1846. The source says *Toldi* was the work that brought him literary recognition.

The page describes Arany's epics and says that Toldi is the first of the Toldi trilogy, followed by Toldi estéje and much later Toldi szerelme. This establishes Toldi as the earliest of the trilogy and supports its role as an early work in Arany's career.

The entry states that *Toldi* is a poem by Arany János that made its creator famous and attracted Petőfi Sándor’s attention. It is a secondary summary rather than a primary source, but it aligns with other accounts that place the poem at the start of Arany’s literary fame.

He wrote next the concluding part of the trilogy, Toldi's Eve (1847–8), published with minor corrections in 1854. His interpretation of old Toldi reflects the post-revolutionary disillusionment.

The product page labels the work as *Toldi Trilogy: Toldi (1847) & Toldi Estélye (1847-54)* and describes it as a masterpiece of Hungarian epic poetry. This is commercial catalog metadata, useful mainly for bibliographic dating.

This PDF excerpt says Arany wrote *Toldi* for the Kisfaludy Society’s 1846 epic-poem contest and that it won the prize on February 6, 1847. Because the excerpt is from a repository copy and not an institutional edition, it should be treated as lower-confidence evidence than library or archival sources.
