The Gettysburg address

    On November 19, 1863, in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, Abraham Lincoln presents his most famous speech as president.  This speech was presented at Union Cemetery after the Battle of Gettysburg, and it was intended to help those soldiers who died, however, it accomplished much more. The Gettysburg address summarizes everything that the United States was striving for during that time.

    The Gettysburg address represents what our nation attains for yet also shows how the United States holds a magnificent country. His speech lasted only nearly 270 words long in ten sentences. It took him around three minutes to read the address. The beginning of the address introduces the tone for the message Lincoln was seeking to convey. In his speech, he declares, "Fourscore 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." In this quote, he is proposing to declare that this country is established upon the principle of equality.

    Another point Lincoln emphasizes in his speech is that the events of the war must not be overlooked. He states “That we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain; that the nation shall have a new birth of freedom and that the government by the people by the people for the people, shall not perish from the earth”. Abraham is striving to show the people regarding the union including the rest of the country that we ought to defend those principles that these men upon the battlefield are fighting for, and we can not allow them to die in vain.

    To conclude, the Gettysburg Address stays one of the most powerful speeches from its time and is still recognized around the United States today. Lincoln was capable to deliver a message of hope and courage when it was difficult to have either of them. This address can represent everything we attain as a country and it will always remain remembered as one of the greatest speeches presented by a president.
