The occasion for his reconsideration was a dispute that had broken out within the German Left. The French Revolution had extended legal emancipation to the German areas administered by French law. The gains made by German Jews had been repealed after Waterloo, but by the early 1840s demands for equality were being raised in all the large towns of the Rhineland. In the course of the ensuing debate Bruno Bauer, a prominent Young Hegelian, staked out what seemed to be the most radical position on the matter: religious belief itself was the most important obstacle to progress. The problems faced by German Jews could not be resolved with political equality. Only emancipation from all religion could protect German democracy from feudal reaction.
