# The 1869 pamphlet reprint issues Das Judenthum in der Musik under Wagner’s own name, expanded

Date: 1869

## The fact

In 1869 Das Judenthum in der Musik was reprinted as a signed pamphlet under Wagner’s name.

It is one event.

## Context

A reprint can be ‘just literature’ and can be a programme. Store it as his act. Nazi Bayreuth is a downstream sibling with other actors.

[Richard Wagner](/people/richard-wagner)’s documented role is bounded by other offices and collaborators named in the sources below. Sharing a field with them is not a reason to drop a documented act, and it is not a reason to assign later consequences done in the name after death.

In 1869 J. J. Weber of Leipzig issued a signed, expanded pamphlet. The 1850 pseudonym fell away. He chose republication after fame and after Ludwig’s patronage. This is a second dated act, not a duplicate heading of 1850.
Named person as heading of the dated public instrument. Later editors, museums, printers, or offices share publication. Complex where later carriers date the row.

## Evidence and sources

Britannica’s Judentum entry and the Archive public-domain pamphlet independently date the 1869 named reprint.

Official or archival record: Britannica — Das Judentum in der Musik (https://www.britannica.com/topic/Das-Judentum-in-der-Musik; Encyclopaedia Britannica).

## Significance

A signed reprint after fame is a second minority-rights harm instrument, not a youthful accident.

A pamphlet is not the 1876 Ring premiere as music.

A signed reprint after fame is a second minority-rights harm instrument, not a youthful accident.

## What is established and what is not

Established: 1869 signed expanded pamphlet. Not established: that 1869 appointed a later dictator.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date or name, or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of later institutions.

The date is the date of this instrument, not a licence to back-date every later harm or benefit.

Established here: a sourced, dated public instrument with a named contribution by Richard Wagner.

What would change the picture: a contradictory original with a different date, signatory, or non-occurrence; a demonstrated forgery; or a measured series that can be argued, with lag and alternatives, as a consequence of this instrument rather than of other causes.

They are not a public rating.
