irodalmában

irodalmában is a Hungarian phrase that operates as a locative possessive form meaning "in its literature" or "in the literature of [something]." It is formed from the noun irodalom (literature) with the third-person possessive suffix (-a/-á, harmonized as -á after a back vowel) and the inessive suffix -ban/-ben, yielding irodalmában. The construction is used to refer to the corpus of literary works connected with a subject—such as a period, a nation, a movement, or an author.

Etymology and grammar: The base noun irodalom combines with the possessive suffix to indicate ownership or association, producing irodalma. Adding the inessive -ban/-ben creates irodalmában, which marks the location "within its literature." This form is common in scholarly and critical writing when discussing the body of texts related to a topic.

Usage: The phrase appears in contexts that discuss the literature surrounding a subject. For example: A korszak irodalmában számos motívum visszatér. (In the literature of the period, many motifs recur.) Another example: A magyar irodalmában a 20. század közepén gyakran jelennek meg társadalmi témák. (In Hungarian literature of the mid-20th century, social themes frequently appear.) These usages help situate analysis within the body of works associated with a particular topic, era, or culture.
