Inquisition et antisémitisme - Résumé de l'histoire juive [suivi de] Le Rêve par Louise Michel
Imprimerie GMarichal & Cie, Paris s.d(1898), 12 x 15 cm, stapled
Rare first edition of this “Résumé de l'histoire juive” bound for the working population: “Il m'a paru utile en ce moment où la campagne antisémite, entreprise depuis dix ans pas Drumont et ses complices, devient de plus en plus aiguë, passionne tout le corps social et peut, d'un moment à l'autre - ou dans un temps donné - sous la protection d'un gouvernement clérico-militaire - se traduire en actes terribles de persécution en France et en Algérie, de publier quelques notes historiques sur le peuple juif. Les camarades qui n'ont guère le temps de s'instruire aux bibliothèques pourront ainsi, confronter leur jugement des choses vécues avec les enseignements de l'histoire sur les griefs reprochés aux juifs par les antisémites qui prêchent leur extermination.” “It seemed useful to me at a time when the anti-Semitic campaign, undertaken for ten years by Drumont and his accomplices, which is becoming more and more acute, exciting the whole social body and which may, from one moment to another - or in any given time - under the protection of a clerical-military government - translate into terrible acts of persecution in France and Algeria, to publish some historical notes on the Jewish people. The comrades who have little time to learn in libraries will thus be able to confront their judgement of things experienced with the lessons of history on the grievances reproached to the Jews by the anti-Semites who preach their extermination.”
Some marginal folding and tears as well as small corner pieces missing.
“Après la chute de l'Empire, [Constant Martin] fut, en tant que délégué des vingt arrondissements, un des signataires de l'Affiche rouge du 6 janvier 1871, proclamation au peuple de Paris pour dénoncer «a trahison» du gouvernement du 4 septembre et pour mettre en avant trois mots d'ordre : Réquisition générale, rationnement gratuit, attaque en masse.” “After the fall of the Empire, [Constant Martin] was, as delegate of the twenty arrondissments, one of the signatories of the Affiche Rouge of 6 January 1871, a proclamation to the people of Paris to denounce a “betrayal” of the government on 4 September and to put forward three slogans: General requisition, free rationing, mass attack.” (Maintron) It is therefore not surprising to find at the end of this brochure an unpublished poem by Louise Michel mentioning the anti-Semitic riot in Algeria.
