Many important scientific studies or cultural activities were interrupted by the war as a result of the conscription of the intellectuals and their death either on the WW1 fronts or as civilian victims. On the other hand, the war was also an opportunity for many to redirect professional careers in new directions e.g. in the service of military propaganda. The conference was organized by the Institute of History of the Jagiellonian University with the financial support of the Kraków City Council – City of Kraków. The conference brought together nearly 30 speakers from the European Union and the United States of America.}, doi = {10.4467/2543702XSHS.17.018.7719}, url = {https://ejournals.eu/en/journal/studia-historiae-scientiarum/article/miedzynarodowa-konferencja-naukowa-intellectuals-and-the-first-world-war-central-european-perspective} }
