| Summary |
Joseph Süss Oppenheimer, 'Jew Süss', is one of the most iconic figures in the history of anti-Semitism. In 1733, Oppenheimer became the 'court Jew' of Carl Alexander, the duke of the small German state of Württemberg. When Carl Alexander died unexpectedly, the Württemberg authorities arrested Oppenheimer, put him on trial, and condemned him to death for unspecified misdeeds. On February 4, 1738, Oppenheimer was hanged in front of a large crowd just outside Stuttgart. He is most often remembered today through several works of fiction, chief among them a vicious Nazi propaganda movie made in 1940 at the behest of Joseph Goebbels. This text is an account of Oppenheimer's notorious trial |
