Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address

Gettysburg, PA, Nov. 19, 1863

4 months after the battle17 months before the end of war

1. Unifying context (photographs that tell the story)

In 1863, Gettysburg was a small townof 2,390 residents

In July, approximately 160,000 men of the Union and Confederacy fought on these grounds

In three days, over 7,000 were killedand 45,000 were wounded

Gettysburg was the last major battle in the North, but the war would continue for 21 more months

2. Focus on structure and relationships (sequence of events)

Four months after the battle, a ceremony dedicated a cemetery and monument at the site

Main speaker Edward Everett addressed the crowd for two hours and his words are largely forgottenPresident Lincoln then spoke for two minutes in one of the most memorable statements ever made on democracy

Photo of Lincoln taken 11 daysbefore the Gettysburg Address

Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth, upon this continent, a new nation, conceived in liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that “all men are created equal”

The Declaration of Independence

3. Use multiple representations (photographs, paintings, primary sources)

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.

Procession Towards Dedication Ceremony

We have come to dedicate a portion of it, as a final resting place for those who died here, that the nation might live. This we may, in all propriety do.

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 hallowed it, far above our poor power to add or detract.

The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here; while it can never forget what they did here.

It is rather for us, the living, we here be dedicatedto the great task remaining before us --

4. Make context explicit (year and location of battles held after the dedication)

that, from these honored dead we take increased devotionto that cause for which they here, have the last full measure of devotion --

that we here highly resolve these dead shall not have died in vain;
