Were they right? If they were wrong, how do you think they made that mistake? How can we predict what speeches or events are going to become historical? If you had to think back on your life and choose an event that would make history what would it be?

Writing Prompts (Due Wednesday) Write a persuasive paper either defending the Gettysburg Address as one of the best speeches in American history, or arguing that it was not. You may use your rubric for examples of its greatness as an oration, but make sure to also speak to the context and historicity of the event too. Imagine that you were in attendance of the Gettysburg Address. Write a narration that includes your reaction to the oratory as well as breaking down what the speech says to you as someone living in during the Civil War.
