林肯總統於18631119日發表蓋茨堡演講 (Gettysburg Address)

有一篇非常有名的演講稿是這樣開始的:「87年以前….」你知道這是哪一篇演講嗎?在18631119日,亞伯拉罕‧林肯總統在賓州蓋茨堡紀念因戰爭死去之將士的典禮最後,發表了一篇簡短的演講。這篇演講也就是著名的「蓋茨堡演講」。在他的講稿裡,林肯向那些為了聯邦與平等犧牲生命的聯邦士兵致上他的敬意。林肯當時並不知道他這篇簡短的演講後來會變得這麼有名。


A very famous speech starts "Four Score and seven years ago . . ." Do you know what speech it is? On November 19, 1863, President Abraham Lincoln delivered a short speech at the end of the ceremonies dedicating the battlefield cemetery at Gettysburg, Pennsylvania. That speech has come to be known as the Gettysburg Address. In it, Lincoln paid tribute to the Union soldiers who sacrificed their lives for union and equality. Lincoln had no idea at the time how famous his short speech would become.
