Pashkevil, Handwritten. [1820]. Mainz, Germany.
Kama Yosef Icha B'Shuka'. Slanderous document from [1820], Mainz, Germany.
[1] solitary leaf, 21x17.5 cm. Ashkenazic hand.
Slander written about someone named Yosef. Shverin is either his family name or his place of residence. This person, [Yosef Shverin], came to Mainz and did something that stirred the writer's ire. This handwritten document labels Yosef – 'Yosef the Roman'. He contrasts him to Joseph in Egypt who overcame his evil impulses, while this Yosef did the opposite. The writer calls him a 'sham chassid' and other negative titles. The writer went so far as to compare him to the father of Jesus. He alludes to Yosef's father and the use of the book of Zohar. This was possibly written against a Chassidic leader who travelled through the Ashkenazic communities. The text doesn't reveal enough details about the episode. The writer concludes with his signature and the year that he composed the pashkevil in the form of a gematria.
This is possibly the earliest handwritten broadside – pashkevil - known today.
Complete. A few marginal tears, without loss. Marks from red wax on the corners of the reverse – apparently used to hang this paper on a public notice board.
