"Bando Generale" bylaws. Anti-Semitism from the Roman Church. 1812
[12] pages.
Bando Generale [general notice]. Anti-Semitic publication from the Roman church, forbidding Christians from selling medicine or healing Jews, and forbidding Jews from employing a Christian doctor. Rome, 1812.
The bylaws, published by the church, include a sharp ban on Christian merchants from selling any type of medicine to the Jews. A merchant who does sell to Jews will be fined 25 gold coins, and a Jew who purchased medicine or was healed by a Christian would be banished from the country. The document includes "economic" excuses regarding the "sins" of the Jews that justify these new bylaws.
Very fine condition.
