Írásaiban

Írásaiban is a Hungarian phrase that means “in his/her writings.” It refers to content, ideas, or statements found within a person’s written works, rather than in external sources. The form is commonly used in literary criticism, scholarly analysis, and journalism to discuss themes, arguments, or motifs as they appear across an author’s corpus.

In usage, írásaiban is often followed by a description of what appears in the writings. For example: “A regényíró írásaiban gyakran visszatér a motívumokra.” (In the novelist’s writings, the motifs recur frequently.) and “A politikus írásaiban hasonló álláspontokat lehet találni.” (Similar positions can be found in the politician’s writings.) The construction is versatile and can be used with a variety of subjects, including authors, politicians, or other figures known for published works.

The phrase is typically employed to attribute ideas or observations to a particular author’s own texts, rather than to paraphrase secondary sources. It helps situate analysis within the context of what the individual has chosen to express in writing, and it is common in essays, critical articles, and academic discussions.
