Summary |
"A nagy per, mely ezer éve folyik s még sincs vége (3. kötet)" by Károly Eötvös is a historical account written in the early 20th century. The work delves into a significant legal case, exploring its implications and the complex social dynamics surrounding it, particularly focusing on themes of justice and the historical prejudice against Jewish communities in Hungary. The opening of the work sets the stage for the unfolding drama of a notorious blood libel case in 1882 involving the alleged murder of a Christian girl by Jewish individuals. As the narrative begins, the main character, a lawyer and member of the defense, grapples with the mounting pressures of public opinion, societal prejudice, and the need for thorough legal investigation. His determination to uncover the truth leads him to question expert testimonies and the authenticity of the evidence presented, as he seeks to prove the innocence of the accused amidst a backdrop of deeply rooted anti-Semitic sentiments and legal intricacies. The tone is characterized by a blend of urgency and intellectual rigor, suggesting a critical examination of both the legal system and societal biases of the time.
