Summary
In The People Speak! James F. Harris argues that modern German anti-Semitism has its roots in the era of emancipation and revolution of the nineteenth century - from the time of the 1848 Revolution, when the Bavarian government proposed a bill to give Jews the same rights as Christians.
While historians have known about the debates of the Bavarian parliament, they have, surprisingly, remained largely unaware of popular attitudes toward the bill and how these attitudes affected the bill's ultimate defeat in 1850. The People Speak! fills this gap.
. This volume forces us to look backward to examine the links between the treatment of Jews in eighteenth- and nineteenth-century Germany and anti-Semitism as practiced by the Nazis in the twentieth century.
