Abstract: Abstract G�F6;ttingen University was a product of the Enlightenment. But although there were occasional appointments of Jewish mathematicians in the second half of the 19th century, a policy of highly selective proportional representation in favor of non-Jewish mathematicians was still in place at the end of the century, creating a barrier that even Jews with the highest qualifications in mathematics could not break through.
