November 19, 2023, marks the 160th anniversary of President Abraham Lincoln’s consecration of the cemetery at Gettysburg with the Gettysburg Address. But why is it one of the most iconic speeches in American history?

 

The small exhibition The Gettysburg Address in 2023: Words That Long Endure looks at Lincoln’s enduring words, which measured the toll of the greatest casualties of the Civil War against the fight for the proposition at the heart of the nation’s identity.

 

The exhibition is on view September 5 - December 15, 2023, in the Lincoln Exhibition Case, which is located outside the Special Collections Gallery in Morris Library. It can be viewed during Morris Library’s operating hours. Admission is free.
