1. Describe the Lincoln movie by Steven Spielberg in detail
3. Describe the purpose of the movie
5. Identify the version or theme of Lincoln that Steven Spielberg chose to depict – is this depiction of Lincoln the Lawyer? Lincoln the Great Emancipator? Lincoln the Martyr? Lincoln the Protector? Lincoln the Merciful? Lincoln Savior of the Union? Lincoln Man of the People? Lincoln First American? Lincoln the Self-Made Man? or something else?
7. Explain why Steven Spielberg chose this particular version of Abraham Lincoln for the movie
8. Discuss whether or not you believe this “use” of Lincoln is an appropriate one – does it remain faithful to what you have learned about Lincoln’s life? (This is where historical context should be discussed in your paper and which your textbook can help)
More on Lincoln Themes:
Much attention given to Abraham Lincoln over the past 150+ years underscores Lincoln’s profound legacy and his prominent place in the American story. But at the same time, it is not always easy to see past the image and understand why Lincoln has achieved such stature. One writer who has done this as well as anyone is Merrill D. Peterson in his book Lincoln in American Memory (1994). Peterson looked at all the many ways in which Lincoln is remembered–books, statues, monuments, paintings, plays, novels, movies, everything–and came up with five broad images–or themes–of Lincoln that are common in American memory:
* Savior of the Union– Lincoln is often portrayed as second only to Washington as the man responsible for the existence of the United States;
* The Great Emancipator– This is probably the most enduring and strongest of the images of Lincoln, and for good reason;
* Man of the People– Lincoln undoubtedly rose from the “plain people” of America, which suggests that he was a democratic hero, someone who knew instinctively what people were thinking and how to relate to them;
* First American– This suggests that Lincoln was the ultimate example of the perfect American because he represents all aspects of the nation. Consider for example that he was born in the South, yet raised in the Midwest. He looked to the West as the future of the country, but he was also connected intellectually to the northeast;
* Self-Made Man– Self-educated and self-motivated, Lincoln obviously personified this concept well. In fact, Lincoln himself seemed to have taken some pride in his accomplishments and encouraged this image of himself.
These were Peterson’s 5 Lincoln themes and this assignment can utilize one or more of his themes as well as incorporate additional themes such as Lincoln the Lawyer; Lincoln the Martyr; Lincoln the Protector; Lincoln the Merciful or any theme that you can develop
All Writing Assignments should…
* include a cover/title page with your name (course/instructor name, date, etc. is optional)
* include a reference/sources page(s)
* include at least 3 primary/secondary sources
* use 1-inch margins, 12 pt. Times New Roman font, and double-space (do not use headers)
* be at least 3 full pages in length – a full, properly formatted page = 23 double-spaced lines (this is content – the 3-page minimum does NOT include the cover and reference pages)
* Include appropriate citations whether you are quoting directly or paraphrasing. Please use the writing style that is preferred within your major – I am familiar with all styles, which include APA, MLA, Chicago/Turabian. The Purdue OWL can be a wonderful source to help you with any of these formats. Visit https://owl.purdue.edu/owl/purdue_owl.htmlLinks to an external site.
* avoid use of the 1st person (“I” think, “I” believe), 2nd person (you), as well as avoid any slang/jargon and asking questions – treat the assignment as a formal essay.
