troubles showing bootstrap modal

I am trying to show a hidden modal I have declared at the beginning of the body of a bootstrap page dependently on a value contained in the current session. To this end I am using $('#myModal').modal("show"); when the document is ready. However the modal is not shown and I can't see why. Here follows an example reproducing the issue

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <meta name="description" content="">
    <meta name="author" content="">

You are including the jquery and the bootstrap library twice...either place it in the head or at the end of the body not in both places

HTML Code which can be used:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
    <meta name="description" content="">
    <meta name="author" content="">
