A collection of ten texts by Abbé Grégoire (1750-1831), with an introduction by F.P. Bowman. "Motion en faveur des Juifs" (pp. 19-43) is a summary of his book "Essais sur la régénération physique, morale et politique des Juifs" (1788). The motion, presented in 1789 to the National Assembly, surveys the history of the Jews, describing them as a nation persecuted throughout the ages, and pleads for granting them civil rights.
