1 The Pwer f Speech 2 Famus US Presidents 3 Great Battles in Histry
On a grey afternn n 19 Nvember 1863, a tall, thin man munted a platfrm in a field in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania and began t speak. The place was the site f a recent battle where thusands f sldiers had died. The man was Abraham Lincln, President f the United States f America, and he was there in memry f the sldiers wh had died. The speech he gave was just 268 wrds lng and lasted tw minutes. But this address t the crwd changed the minds f his peple and helped shape a natin.
At that time, America was bitterly divided. Fr tw years, its peple had been deep in a civil war between the slave-wning Cnfederate Suthern States and the “free” Nrthern States f the Unin. The wrst battle lasted three days and tk place at Gettysburg in 1863. The Unin side wn, but at a great cst. Over 50,000 sldiers were killed r wunded, and peple lst hpe and purpse. What was all this suffering fr?
Lincln understd the feelings f the civilian peple. His speech gave them hpe, belief and a reasn t lk t the future. He gave them a new visin f what the United States f America shuld be, based n the ideals set dwn by its Funding Fathers 87 years befre. It was what the sldiers had died fr. Nw it was up t the living t remve nt nly the divisins between Nrth and Suth, but the bundaries between black and white, and wrk step by step twards the equality f humankind.
Fur scre and seven years ag ur fathers brught frth, upn this cntinent, a new natin, cnceived in Liberty, and dedicated t the prpsitin that all men are created equal.
Nw we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that natin, r any natin, s cnceived, and s dedicated, can lng endure. We are met here n a great battlefield f that war. We have cme t dedicate a prtin f it as a final resting place fr thse wh here gave their lives that that natin might live. It is altgether fitting and prper that we shuld d this.
But in a larger sense, we can nt dedicate – we can nt cnsecrate – we can nt hallw this grund. The brave men, living and dead, wh struggled here, have cnsecrated it far abve ur pr pwer t add r detract. The wrld will little nte, nr lng remember, what we say here, but can never frget what they did here. It is fr us, the living, rather t be dedicated here t the unfinished wrk which they have, thus far, s nbly carried n.
It is rather fr us t be here dedicated t the great task remaining befre us – that frm these hnred dead we take increased devtin t that cause fr which they here gave the last full measure f devtin – that we here highly reslve that these dead shall nt have died in vain; that this natin shall have a new birth f freedm; and that this gvernment f the peple, by the peple, fr the peple, shall nt perish frm the earth.

Hell, everyne. Tday, I’m ging t intrduce Edgar Snw. Edgar Snw was an American jurnalist wh wrte influential bks and articles abut China in the 1930s. At a time when relatively little was knwn abut ur cuntry in the Western wrld, his 1937 bk Red Star ver China brke idelgical bundaries by telling the stries f the Chinese cmmunist mvement frm the inside.
Althugh Snw was nt the nly internatinal jurnalist t set ft in China during the early decades f the 20th century, what set him apart frm the thers was that he actually spent time with the Chinese Red Army. He listened t their stries and bserved their day-t-day lives, as well as cnducting interviews with Ma Zedng and ther leaders. His bigraphical accunts and depictins f histrical events, such as the Lng March, therefre captured the spirit f the perid and the peple living thrugh it with unprecedented authenticity. Snw is cnsidered “ur American friend”.
I admire Snw’s special insight and bravery, risking his life during the war t get t the heart f the stry and crrect prejudice. Fr me, Snw’s writing, and in particular Red Star ver China, is a must-read fr anyne with an interest in that perid.
