from Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Career

Adler studied law at several German universities and passed the state examination in 1849. But since he had participated in the Palatinate Revolution of 1848/49 , he was neither accepted into the civil service as a lawyer nor as a notary . The anti-Semitic attitude of the reactionary Palatinate government was also a reason for the rejection, because Adler was Jewish .

That is why he initially worked as a teacher in Hamburg and Frankfurt am Main , later he worked as a bank clerk. In Bavaria, Adler then settled as a lawyer in Bayreuth at the end of the 1860s and then went to Würzburg and Munich .

In 1869 he joined the Liberal Progressive Party for the constituency of Speyer-Landau for election to the 24th Bavarian state parliament . In the Chamber of Deputies , he was involved in economic issues over the next five years and sat on several committees and commissions.
