Summary: "A nagy per, mely ezer éve folyik s még sincs vége" by Károly Eötvös is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The text explores a significant legal case involving the mysterious disappearance of a young girl in Hungary, which eventually escalated into an intense societal and judicial examination intertwined with deep-rooted anti-Semitic sentiments. Eötvös positions himself as the legal defender of the accused parties, unveiling the underlying mechanisms of public opinion and societal prejudice as they impact justice. The opening of the work introduces a somber case involving the disappearance of a young servant girl from a Hungarian village, leading to rampant speculation and accusations against the Jewish community, who were present in the village during the girl’s disappearance. Fueled by existing tensions and historical biases, the case draws the attention of local authorities and the press, resulting in a tumultuous judicial process. Eötvös reflects on his role within this fraught legal landscape, revealing the complexities of human emotion, societal influence, and the relentless nature of the accusations against the Jewish individuals involved. The work provides a contemplative analysis of the events, aiming to clarify not only the facts surrounding the case but also the moral and psychological turmoil that accompany such public trials.
