Abraham Lincoln亞伯拉罕.林肯
亞伯拉罕.林肯(1809—1865),出生在肯塔基州哈丁縣一個清貧的農民家庭,他的童年是“一部貧窮的簡明編年史”。在青年時代,林肯通過自學使自己成為一個博學而充滿智慧的人。1860年,林肯成為共和黨的總統候選人,11月,選舉揭曉,他以200萬票當選為美國第16任總統。他信仰人人平等,領導美國南北戰爭走向全面勝利,並頒佈了《解放黑人奴隸宣言》,維護了美聯邦統一,為美國在19世紀躍居世界頭號工業強國開闢了道路,被稱為“偉大的解放者”。
Abraham Lincoln was born in 1809 in a log cabin① to very humble, uneducated parents; he did grow up in a backwoods settlement that was virtually a wilderness; there, beginning at the age of seven, he did help his father to hew a farm out of that wilderness with an axe; with the benefit of only a few months of schooling, he did study diligently on his own to acquire basic skills in reading and writing; as a young man out on his own and working at menial jobs, he did teach himself from books such subjects as English grammar, sufficient mathematics to learn surveying, and enough law to enter the legal profession at the age of 27. And, of course, he did perform triumphantly in the United States’ most severe crisis, saving his country from dissolution, presiding over the destruction of slavery, and dying an authentic American martyr②.
亞伯拉罕?林肯1809年出生於一戶貧困人家的小木屋裡,父親母親都沒怎麼上過學。林肯自幼在野地裡長大,長到7歲時,開始幫助父親在村中做一些砍伐的活計。幼年的林肯從僅有的幾個月上學時間裡刻苦習得了基本的讀寫能力。逐漸長大後,小夥子開始自食其力,做一些體力活,並通過讀書自學了英語文法、基本算數技能,並由此掌握測量調查的學問。其法律知識更是自學成才,到27歲時林肯已能通過法律專業的考核。正是他帶領全美人民度過了最嚴峻的國難危機,拯救國家於分裂之中,主持廢除了奴隸制度,不愧是一位美國本土的國家英雄。
A Mind Ripe for Learning
From the very beginning, Abraham Lincoln was different, and in a way that many of hisneighbors—and especially his father—did not approve. Unlike almost everyone else he grew
up with, Lincoln was intensely interested in words and meanings. He learned to read and writeat a very early age, actively seeking out books to borrow and taking notes on what he read.When he left home and struck out on his own at the age of 22, Lincoln settled in thesmall village of New Salem, Illinois, where he spent six eventful years. Unprepossessing① inappearance, he was frequently described as gawky② and ill-dressed, but the other residents soon discovered he had many assets. In addition to being intelligent and surprisingly well informed, he was unusually good-natured and friendly. He excelled in popular athletic contests such as running, jumping, and throwing weights; he was unusually strong and a nearly unbeatable wrestler; and though he did not drink, he was convivial③ and had great ability as a storyteller. He was thus well liked.
Supporting himself with a variety of jobs, Lincoln studied assiduously during his New Salem years to make up for his lack of formal education, of which he remained painfully conscious all his life. Borrowing books wherever he could, he studied history and biography, and he displayed an eager appetite for literature, being particularly fond of Shakespeare and of the Scottish poet Robert Burns.
年少發奮
林肯從小就是個另類,行為處事之不尋常讓許多鄰居都難以接受,尤其是他的父親,更是頗為不滿。與眾多同伴不同,幼年的林肯對於文字與語義表現出極大的興趣,小小年紀就學會了識字、寫字,還積極尋找圖書,借來閱讀,讀完還寫讀書筆記。
22歲時,林肯離家獨自闖蕩,在伊利諾伊州一處名叫新塞勒姆的小村子裡定居下來,在此度過6年的時光。由於外表不招人喜歡,林肯常常被人笑為怪人,但還是有許多鄰居很快發現了他身上諸多的閃光點。他不僅聰明伶俐,還上知天文、下曉地理,除此之外,心地善良,待人十分友好。大眾流行的體育運動他都擅長,跑步、跳高、投擲等,無所不能。他身體也非常結實,是個摔跤能手。儘管他不喝酒,卻能在酒宴上製造歡樂的氣氛,他還是個講故事的好手。如此,人們都喜歡同他來往。
那段日子裡,林肯同時打幾份工來維持生計。但他從未停止過對於學習的熱情,在新塞姆村居位的時光裡他一直孜孜不倦,以彌補自己沒有接受過正規教育的遺憾。這一遺憾整整伴隨了他的一生。無論何時,只要有機會,他就借書來讀,鑽研歷史知識、研讀人物傳記,還對文學表現出極大的熱情,尤其鍾愛莎士比亞和蘇格蘭詩人羅伯特?彭斯。
As a Member of Congress
Before his first year in New Salem was out, he declared himself a candidate for the state legislature, but failed. When he ran again at the next election, he won handily, and served four successive terms. In his second term, in spite of being one of the youngest legislators, he was chosen as his Whig Party’s floor leader, an honor that reflected his effectiveness as a speaker, his energy, and his organizational and leadership abilities.
At about the time of his marriage, Lincoln declined to run for a fifth term in the state legislature and began angling for election to the U.S. Congress. When he finally succeeded and took his seat in the House of Representatives in December 1847, the Mexican War was coming to a victorious conclusion, and Lincoln lost no time in joining other Whig members in attacking President James K. Polk for unconstitutionally① provoking an unjust war for the purpose of acquiring new territory.
This earned Lincoln considerable criticism back home, where the war was very popular. Even as Lincoln contradicted his pro-war Democratic constituents② on a matter of principle, he offended some of his fellow Whigs with his practicality. So when Lincoln’s congressional term was over, he was denied as the head of the General Land Office.
As his brief congressional career ended, Lincoln returned to Illinois, his political ambitions frustrated. With this greater attention to his legal profession, Lincoln’s skill and reputation as a lawyer rose, and his firm gained a prominent position in the Illinois bar. He was “losing interest in politics,” he said of this period. But as the slavery issue heated up in the 1850s, Lincoln’s long-standing affi nity① for political controversy unexpectedly revived.
進入議會
離開新塞勒姆村後的第一年,林肯即宣告參選伊利諾伊州議會議員,但不幸失敗。第二次競選中,他輕鬆獲勝,並連續四個任期在位。特別在第二任期之內,他作為全州最年輕的議員,有幸被選中成為輝格黨的一名黨內領導。這一榮譽有力地說明了林肯過人的口才、充沛的精力、還有非比尋常的領導組織才能。
大約到林肯結婚之時,他婉言回拒了第五個任期,開始著手準備努力進入美國國會。待到1847年12月他成功進入國會眾議院,獲得一席之時,正逢墨西哥戰役大勝,林肯馬不停蹄地參與到輝格党的黨員之中,針對波爾克總統發起抨擊,指責其違背憲法,意圖侵佔新的領土而發起不正當戰爭。
不料此舉卻使林肯遭到來自家鄉伊利諾伊州的一片罵聲,而該州的主流思想是贊成墨西哥戰役。儘管林肯反對對戰爭持支持態度的民主黨同僚們,但因其現實化的做派也得罪了不少輝格党党成員。如此,眾議員任期滿了之後,林肯提出就任土地辦公室負責人的請求被國會拒絕了。
短暫的國會經歷草草結束,林肯回到了伊利諾伊州,對於政壇之紛紜感到心灰意冷。憑藉所掌握的扎實的法律專業基礎,林肯作為律師漸漸小有名氣,也慢慢地在伊利諾伊州當地有了名望。據林肯自己日後回憶,那時的他“對政治漸漸失去熱情”。然而,隨著19世紀中期奴隸制的問題逐漸嚴重,林肯對於政治的激情竟奇跡般地重新燃燒開來
