Requirements: .ePUB reader, 14 Mb
Overview: A study based on various documents, private papers and traditions, with numerous reproductions of contemporary illustrations and publications.
Joseph Süß Oppenheimer (1698? – February 4, 1738) was a German Jewish banker and court Jew for Duke Karl Alexander of Württemberg in Stuttgart. Throughout his career, Oppenheimer made scores of powerful enemies, some of whom conspired to bring about his arrest and execution after Karl Alexander’s death.
In the centuries since his execution, Oppenheimer’s rise and fall have been treated in two notable literary works, and his ordeal inspired two films, including the antisemitic production Jud Süß, released in Nazi Germany in 1940, itself the cause for a famous postwar trial.
