1787D19716London 1787. First Edition . Hardcover. Near Fine. London: 1787. Half red morocco with gilt spine and marbled paper over boards. The most notable titled rebel to espouse the cause of political liberty and to hold office in Revolutionary France Count Mirabeau was also among the most distinguished advocates of Jewish emancipation in his troubled country. In this book published two years before the fall of the Bastille he turns the blazing intensity of the Enlightenment on the views of Moses Mendelssohn a man he greatly admired. Mirabeau draws strong philosophical similarities between Mendelssohn in Prussia and another heroic iconoclast Thomas Jefferson in Virginia. <br /> <br /> <br/><br/> hardcover

A very good copy handsomely bound.<br /> <br /> First edition of this polemical work by the celebrated French statesman and political writer Gabriel-Honoré Riquetti comte de Mirabeau 1749-1791. Here he argues "that the degradation of the Jews was due to the squalid conditions in which they were being compelled to live. It was chiefly based on what he had seen in Germany where among other developments he witnessed part of the Pantheismusstreit the public controversy over Lessing’s Spinozism which erupted in the 1780s and in which Mirabeau firmly took the side of the deceased Lessing and the Spinozistes†Israel Radical Enlightenment 716. Moses Mendelssohn 1729-1786 was considered the greatest Jewish philosopher of his time. Mirabeau devotes much of the present work to the public arguments of the Pantheismusstreit in which Mendelssohn was challenged either to demonstrate the fallibility of Christian dogma or to convert to Christianity. With a bio-bibiography of Mendelssohn and an account of the Naturalization Act of 1753 in England which gave full civil rights to Jews but was revised soon after. References: Bamberger 584.
