The essay deals with the revolutionary Ernst Elsenhans, who was shot in 1849 at the age of just 33. He was a participant in the Baden revolution until the capitulation of the Rastatt fortress. His political ideas were responsible for the death sentence imposed on him by the Prussian victors. As a moderate early socialist and supporter of a just international state system, he wrote articles as a journalist and developed ideas that are timelessly topical.
