analyze Abraham Lincoln's ideas about liberty,

in his first and second inaugural addresses and
the Gettysburg address…
1st Inaugural Address- March 4, 1861
“I have no purpose, directly or indirectly, to interfere
with the institution of slavery in the States where it
exists. I believe I have no lawful right to do so, and I
have no inclination to do so. Those who…elected me
did so with full knowledge…”
1st Inaugural Address- March 4, 1861
“One section of our country believes slavery is right
and ought to be extended… This is the only
substantial dispute. This, I think, can not be perfectly
cured, and it would be worse in both cases after the
separation of the sections than before… Physically
speaking, we can not separate. We can not remove
our respective sections from each other nor build an
impassable wall between them…”
1st Inaugural Address- March 4, 1861
“In your hands, my dissatisfied fellow-countrymen,
and not in mine, is the momentous issue of civil war.
The Government will not assail you. You can have no
conflict without being yourselves the aggressors. You
have no oath registered in heaven to destroy the
Government, while I shall have the most solemn one
to "preserve, protect, and defend it."
1st Inaugural Address- March 4, 1861
“We are not enemies, but friends. We must not be
enemies. Though passion may have strained it must
not break our bonds of affection. The mystic chords of
memory, stretching from every battlefield and patriot
grave to every living heart and hearthstone all over
this broad land, will yet swell the chorus of the
Union, when again touched, as surely they will be, by
the better angels of our nature.”
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
“…four years ago all thoughts were anxiously
directed to an impending civil war. All dreaded it, all
sought to avert it. While the inaugural address was
being delivered from this place, devoted altogether to
saving the Union without war, insurgent agents were
in the city seeking to destroy it without war--seeking
to dissolve the Union and divide effects by
negotiation. Both parties deprecated war, but one of
them would make war rather than let the nation
survive, and the other would accept war rather than
let it perish, and the war came.”
Wednesday- Pre-AP Classes
Have out your graphic organizer from
yesterday or your tickets.
Today’s Task: analyze Abraham Lincoln's ideas
about liberty, equality, union, and government
as contained in his first and second inaugural
addresses and the Gettysburg address…
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lincoln2.asp
At this second appearing to take the oath of the Presidential
office there is less occasion for an extended address than there
was at the first. Then a statement somewhat in detail of a course
to be pursued seemed fitting and proper. Now, with… the great
contest which still absorbs the attention and engrosses the
energies of the nation, little that is new could be presented.

2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865

One-eighth of the whole population were colored slaves, not
distributed generally over the Union, but localized in the southern part
of it. These slaves constituted a peculiar and powerful interest. All
knew that this interest was somehow the cause of the war. To
strengthen, perpetuate, and extend this interest was the object for
which the insurgents would rend the Union even by war, while the
Government claimed no right to do more than to restrict the territorial
enlargement of it.
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lincoln2.asp
Neither party expected for the war the magnitude or the duration
which it has already attained. Neither anticipated that the cause of the
conflict might cease with or even before the conflict itself should
cease…. Both read the same Bible and pray to the same God, and each
invokes His aid against the other. It may seem strange that any men
should dare to ask a just God's assistance in wringing their bread from
the sweat of other men's faces, but let us judge not, that we be not
judged. The prayers of both could not be answered. That of neither has
been answered fully. The Almighty has His own purposes.
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lincoln2.asp
"Woe unto the world because of offenses; for it must
needs be that offenses come, but woe to that man by
whom the offense cometh." [Luke 17/ Matthew 18]
If we shall suppose that American slavery is one of
those offenses which… He now wills to remove, and
that He gives to both North and South this terrible
war as the woe due…, shall we discern therein any
departure from those divine attributes which the
believers in a living God always ascribe to Him?
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lincoln2.asp
Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray, that this
mighty scourge of war may speedily pass away. Yet, if
God wills that it continue until all the wealth piled…
shall be sunk, and until every drop of blood drawn
with the lash shall be paid by another drawn with the
sword, as was said three thousand years ago, so still it
must be said "the judgments of the Lord are true and
righteous altogether.“ [Psalm 19:9]
2nd Inaugural Address- March 4, 1865
http://avalon.law.yale.edu/19th_century/lincoln2.asp
With malice [hatred] toward none, with charity for
all, with firmness in the right as God gives us to see
the right, let us strive on to finish the work we are in,
to bind up the nation's wounds, to care for him who
shall have borne the battle and for his widow and his
orphan, to do all which may achieve and cherish a
just and lasting peace among ourselves and with all
nations.
