Kaiserkrone
Wuttke maintained good relations with the Saxon education minister Karl Ludwig von der Pfordten. From May 1848, he was a member of the revolutionary Frankfurt Parliament. A close ally of the progressive politician Robert Blum, he joined the left-wing "Württemberger Hof" faction. In parliament, he advocated a "Greater German" solution and refused to offer King Frederick William IV of Prussia the German Imperial crown. Later he approached the policies of Ferdinand Lassalle.
