Statement of the Civil Disabilities and Privations Affecting Jews in England
This 11-page excerpt from the 1831 edition of the Edinburgh Review reprints a speech delivered by Thomas Babington Macaulay, 1st Baron Macaulay, advocating for the removal of civil disabilities against Jews in England. Macaulay's speech, delivered around 1830, highlights the existing rights of Jews in the United States and France, contrasting them with the restrictions imposed in Britain. Published by Longmans, Green & Co., this excerpt provides a valuable glimpse into the historical context of Jewish emancipation in the United Kingdom.
