Description

Broadside

summary

The anonymous author takes issue with a placard that appeared in Vienna’s streets proclaiming “whoever is against the Jews is against the State.” The present broadside seeks to rectify that: Two thirds of the Austrian population are anti-Semitic - and proudly so! (“…mehr als zwei Drittheilen der Bevölkerung…Der grösste Theil der Bevölkerung der österreichischen Monarchie ist gegen die Juden”). The broadside states that the deep antipathy to the Jews stems precisely from love of the Fatherland. Signed “J.Q. Endlich” (a pseudonym).
