József Kármán, sentimentalist Hungarian author, was born at Losonc in 1769, the son of a Calvinist pastor. He was educated at Losonc and Pest, whence he migrated to Vienna. There he made the acquaintance of the beautiful and eccentric Countess Markovics, who was for a time his mistress, but she was not, as has often been supposed, the heroine of his famous novel Fanni hagyományai. Subsequently, he settled in Pest as a lawyer.
