Arany János ballada költészete (1817-1882)

Arany János 1817 március 2-án született, Nagyszalontán. Apja kevés földdel és kis házzal bíró földműves volt. A család súlyos tüdőbajjal volt megáldva, a nyolc gyerek közül csupán kettő maradt életben (János és Sára). Érzékeny, félénk, visszahúzódó gyermek volt. Iskoláit 1823 és 1833 között végezte Nagyszalontán (segédtanítói állás), majd ezt követően Debrecenben.
