  At the end of the 1990s, early 2000s, the Russian Federation handed over to Hungary a database of 66 281 entries: a database of some of the names of Hungarian prisoners of war and civilian interned people who had died in Soviet POW and internment camps. The database was written in Russian, with Cyrill letters, and was in an Excel format, in which the picture of a personal data sheet, the so-called ’ucsetnoje gyelo’ can be ordered to each name. On the occasion of the GULAG Memorial Year, the Museum of Military History compiled a database that is reachable also on the internet for those interested, and with the help of which one can learn the names of people as well as settlements, military corps, ranks, and Soviet POW camps without the need for the researcher to dig into the literature. The database contains information on 240 people born in the Districts of Berettyóújfalu and Derecske. Among those, the Hungarian records of loss contain data on only 53, the destiny of the others can be learned from the new database.

  The study at hand examines the role of the Hungarian scientific elite during World War I, paying particular attention to the challenges associated with the reintegration of war veterans. First, it reviews the impact of the Great War on the functioning of science and the transformation of international scientific relations, then it demonstrates that reintegration was a complex challenge that engaged several disciplines. Special attention is devoted to the public lectures held by members of the scientific elite of the time, which were significant not only in that they created an independent professional discourse, but also in that they contributed to raising awareness of the traumas experienced by war veterans, thereby strengthening social sensitivity and solidarity. The main argument of the article is that the scientific elite actively sought to contribute to the processing of war experiences and to facilitate the reintegration of veterans, but the impact of these efforts remained limited due to institutional constraints.

  In the first part of my paper I write briefly about the burdens that afflicted Debrecen during the recapture wars and Rákóczi’s War of Independence. In the further sections of the study, I examine the crimes perpetrators or victims of which were some kind of soldiers (e.g. quartered German soldiers, Kuruces). I used the city magistrates’ and criminal tribunal protocols between 1697 and 1705 as source material, which contain a lot of useful information about how the civil population of the city kept contact with the various soldiers.
