EDITORS COMMENTS
1. Title: "Bavarian Peoples Party: Christian People! Will You Allow Spartakus to Tear Down Your Churches? Answer on Election Day!" 2. Description: This poster, created by the Bavarian Peoples Party (Bayerische Volkspartei) in 1919, features a powerful and ominous figure wearing a Roman helmet, with the towers of Munich's Frauenkirche church in the background. The figure is depicted tearing down the church towers, symbolizing the threat of destruction posed by the left-wing Spartakus League (Spartakusbund). The text in the poster reads, "Christian people! Will you allow Spartakus to tear down your churches? Answer on election day! Gib Antwort am Wahltag!" (Give an answer on election day!) 3. Context: The Bavarian Peoples Party was a conservative political party in Germany, founded in 1878. It was known for its strong anti-communist stance and its support for the monarchy. In the aftermath of World War I and the German Revolution, the party became increasingly concerned about the growing influence of the left-wing Spartakus League, which was advocating for the overthrow of the German government and the establishment of a socialist state. This poster was produced during the 1919 Bavarian elections, which were held in the context of the German Revolution and the subsequent civil war in Munich. 4. Significance: This poster is a powerful example of the political propaganda used during the German Revolution and the subsequent elections. It reflects the fears and anxieties of the conservative and religious population in Bavaria, who saw the Spartakus League as a threat to their values and way of life. The image of the Roman figure tearing down the church towers is a powerful symbol of the perceived destruction and chaos that would result from a left-wing takeover. The call to "answer on election day" underscores the importance of the upcoming vote and the need for a strong conservative response to the challenges facing German society at the time.
