Summons for Karl Marx
| Author(s) | Karl Marx |
|---|---|
| Written | 14 November 1848 |
Printed according to the newspaper
Published in English for the first time in Marx-Engels Collected Works, Volume 8
Marx was summoned before the examining magistrate on November 14, 1848, after the Neue Rheinische Zeitung published the second article in the series “Counter-Revolution in Berlin” containing a call to refuse to pay taxes as a measure against the counter-revolutionary coup d'état in Prussia (see this volume, pp. 16-18). However, fearing the people’s reaction to the persecution of the editors of a popular newspaper, the authorities confined themselves to confirming one of the charges brought against the Neue Rheinische Zeitung earlier, after it had published the appeal “To the German People” by the republican Friedrich Hecker (see Note 93).
Cologne, November 13. The “rédacteur en chef” of the Neue Rheinische Zeitung has just received a fresh summons, for November 14, from the examining magistrate’s court here.
