In-12, 86 pages, restored basane binding. Extremely rare copy of the manifesto first published in Hebrew under the title Paroles de paix et de vérité.

According to this manifesto, Jewish children should be educated in secular subjects such as history, geography, ethics, mathematics and astronomy.

The translator was probably Berr Isaac Berr (1744-1828), leader of the Jewish community in Lorraine and member of Napoleon's Grand Sanhedrin.
