Although much has been written about Abraham Lincoln, there has
been little rhetorical analysis of how this public man communicated
with his listeners. Yet by studying his rhetoric closely, we can
gain real insights into Lincoln as an orator, debater, jester,
lawyer, statesman, leader, and president. This critical appraisal
of his public speaking is linked to transcripts of some major
speeches and to a chronology, bibliography, and an index. This
useful one-volume reference is intended for students, scholars, and
experts in communications and rhetoric, political science, and
American studies and history. Lois J. Einhorn presents a rhetorical
analysis of Abraham Lincoln's speaking, defining his view toward
public speaking, characteristics of his rhetoric, his use of humor,
and the development of his various addresses while president. Texts
of nine selected speeches are printed exactly. A short chronology
of speeches, a selected bibliography of Lincoln as a speaker, and a
general index complete this important new reference work.
