'The Gettysburg Address: Perspectives on Lincoln's Greatest Speech'
H-FedHist White on Conant, 'The Gettysburg Address: Perspectives on Lincoln's Greatest Speech' Review published on Monday, September 18, 2017 Sean Conant, ed. The Gettysburg Address: Perspectives on Lincoln's Greatest Speech. Oxford: Oxford University Press, 2015. xvi + 350 pp. $24.95 (paper), ISBN 978-0-19-022745-6; $79.00 (cloth), ISBN 978-0-19-022744-9. Reviewed by Jonathan W. White (Christopher Newport University)Published on H-FedHist (September, 2017) Commissioned by Caryn E. Neumann When Secretary of War Edwin M. Stanton read the Gettysburg Address to a Republican rally in Pennsylvania in 1868, he declared triumphantly, “That is the voice of God speaking through the lips of Abraham Lincoln!”[1] Indeed, the speech has become akin to American scripture. This collection of essays, now available in paperback, was originally put together to accompany a film titledThe Gettysburg Address (2017), which was produced by the editor of this book, Sean Conant. It brings “a new birth of fresh analysis for those who still love those words and still yearn to better understand them,” writes Harold Holzer in the foreword (p. xv). The volume is broken up into two parts: “Influences” and “Impacts,” with chapters from a number of notable Lincoln scholars and Civil War historians. The opening essay, by Nicholas P. Cole, challenges Garry Wills’s interpretation of the address, offering the sensible observation that “rather than setting Lincoln’s words in the context of Athenian funeral oratory, it is perhaps more natural to explain both the form of Lincoln’s words and their popular reception at the time in the context of the Fourth of July orations that would have been immediately familiar to both Lincoln and his audience” (p. -

px hawkish hack cover (HDS).qxp 07/12/2006 20:25 Page 1 think tank of the year Much of the discourse on the war on terror sacrifices historical 2006/2007 perspective for an often partisan focus on the day-by-day flow of events. Confessions of a Hawkish Hack: The Media and the War on Terror is Matthew d’Ancona’s critique of such short-termism. In it, he outlines his own interpretation of the attacks of 9/11 and the media’s coverage of events since then. Above all, he urges the West to show greater patience and stamina in a conflict that is likely to last for decades and may never have a clear end point. Thus far our biggest deficit in waging war on terror has been a lack of ideas—the“ kind of reshaping ideas that Viner, Brodie, Schelling, and others developed to cope with the emergence of the nuclear threat during the Cold War. In this remarkable essay, Matthew d’Ancona undertakes precisely this groundbreaking effort, focusing on the fraught relationship between the media and the wars on terror. It is a triumph.” Philip Bobbitt, author of The Shield of Achilles Matthew d'Ancona blends the slow, medium and fast pulses of history in a“ way that truly illuminates the bundle of problems facing open societies confronting international terrorism of a kind and on a scale none of them have experienced before. Would that more journalists had the intellectual Confessions of a and verbal horsepower evident in this immensely thoughtful piece.” Peter Hennessy, Attlee Professor of Contemporary British History, Queen Mary, University of London Hawkish -

Are Texans Being Denied Access to a Vital Medicine? a Scientific Assessment of Marijuana
Are Texans Being DENIED ACCESS to a VITAL MEDICINE? A Scientific Assessment of Marijuana This booklet may be reproduced in total for free distribution. PDF files are available at http://www.DPFT.org Introduction The goal of the Drug Policy Forum of Texas (DPFT) is to minimize the damage done to society by both drug abuse and poorly conceived drug laws. To that end we provide scientific information and expert opinion while promoting discussion of what might be more effective alternatives to our current drug policies. Members may differ on the best answers. We hold the traditional view that unrestricted debate and a well informed public are essential elements of democracy. DPFT does not advocate or encourage the recreational use of illegal or legal drugs. Our members are simply concerned citizens from no particular political or social group, but we’re fortunate to include many experts among our leaders and advisors. Executive Director, Dr. G. Alan Robison, is a National Academy of Sciences award winning pharmacologist, Dr. Fred Murad recently won the Nobel prize for medicine and Dr. Susan Robbins teaches a national award-winning TV course on “Drugs and Society.” We work closely with many other experts here and around the world. We welcome you to join us. This booklet addresses one element of drug policy, the use of marijuana as medicine. Federal policy seems oddly schizophrenic in that since 1978 the federal government has grown, and mailed some 300 marijuana cigarettes a month to a handful of patients who had to prove to the satisfaction of three government agencies (DEA, FDA and NIDA) that marijuana was an essential element in their treatment, yet has closed the program to new entrants since 1992. -
