(((Decembrist revolt))) of 1825
(de.catbox.moe)https://de.catbox.moe/14fqzh.pngWe have mentioned the Russian Decembrist movement which led to an attempt at armed insurrection, and which was frustrated on December 14, 1825. We must add that this was not an isolated, exclusively Russian phenomenon. This movement was developing under the influence of the revolutionary perturbations among the intelligentsia of Poland, Austria, France, and even Spain.This movement of the intelligentsia had its counterpart in literature, its chief representative being Ludwig Borne, a Jew, a famous German publicist during the period of 1818-1830 and the first political writer in Germany. He had a profound influence upon the evolution of German political thought. He was a thoroughgoing political democrat, who took little interest in social questions, believing that everything could be set right by granting the people political freedom.

Borne was the first to use the term "emancipation" in connection with the Jews, he meant it in this Utopian and universal context. For Borne, Jewish rights were no more than human rights. The barbarism of the antisemites was in their distinction between civil and human rights.
