Gettysburg Address (Abraham Lincoln)
Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought
forth
on this continent, a new nation,
conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the
proposition that all men
are
created
equal.
Now
we
are
engaged
in
a
great
civil
war,
testing
whether
that
nation
or
any
nation so conceived and
so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a
great battle-field of that
war. We have
come to dedicate a portion of the field, as a
final resting place for those who here
gave their lives that that nation might
live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we
should do this.
But, in a larger sense,
we can not dedicate
—
we can
not consecrate
—
we can not
hallow
—
this
ground. The brave men, living and dead,
who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above
our
poor power to add or detract. The
world will little note, nor long remember what we
say here, but
it can never forget what
they did here. It is for us the living, rather, to
be dedicated here to the
unfinished
work which they who fought here have thus far so
nobly advanced. It is rather for us to
be here dedicated to the great task
remaining before us
—
that
from these honored dead we take
increased devotion to that cause for
which they gave the last full measure of devotion
—
that we
here
highly resolve that these dead shall not have died
in vain
—
that this nation,
under God, shall
have a new birth of
freedom
—
and that
government of the people, by the people, for the
people,
shall not perish from the
earth.

Historians Disagree Why Historians
Disagree 1 Most students are usually introduced to
the study
of history by way of a fat
textbook and become quickly immersed in a vast sea
of names, dates,
events and statistics.
The students’ skills are then tested by
examinations that require them to show
how much the data they remember: the
more they remember, the higher their grades. From
this
experience
a
number
of
conclusions
seem
obvious;
the
study
of
history
is
the
study
of
“facts”
about
the past; the more facts you know, the better you
are as a student of history. The professional
historian is simply one who brings
together a very large number of facts. Therefore
students often
become
confused
upon
discovering
that
historians
disagree
sharply
even
when
they
are
dealing
with the same event. 2 Their common
sense reaction to this state of affairs is to
conclude that one
historian is right
while the other is wrong. and presumably,
historians are wrong, will have their
“facts”
wrong.
