Der Deutsche Michel Und Die Juden [The German Michael and the Jews], an anti-Semitic leaflet by Leopold Oesterreicher [pseudonym]. [Vienna]: M. Lell, [1848]. German.
An anti-Semitic leaflet that was printed during the Spring of Nations (the Revolutions of 1848) and which calls to deprive the Jews of their civil, social and political rights. The leaflet appeals to "German Michael", as a typical prototype of the good, honest German, and warns him against the Jews by using anti-Semitic stereotypes: the Jews control the world by means of their money, their cunning and exploitation; the Jews were behind the French Revolution; the Jews endanger England; Polish Jews flood Austria; and more.
[1] leaf, 40 cm. Good condition. Fold lines. Stains. Several creases and tears along edges.
