Beleuchtung der petition – welche (angeblich) der buergerliche handelsstandder koenigl. Munich, April 1819.
Manifest addressed by the Jews of Munich to Bavarian Kingdom assembly as a response to a petition issued by Christian merchants (in April 1819) who tried to restrict the Jewish access to trade. Christian merchants blamed the Jews for being dishonest and for cheating, relying of the Jewish religion. They also claimed that the Jews, since most of them did not get secular education, created a "state within a state" and they have secret and valuable merchandise reservoirs that keep the "Black
Market" existing. In this petition, Bavarian Jews absolutely deny all charges, prove their falseness and claim that accusations were raised in order to enhance the interests of Christian merchants who try to create a monopoly. Furthermore they claim that Jewish merchants paid 30% more taxes than Christians. 52 pages, 20 cm. Good condition. Slight tears to cover.
