Rousseau:
What topic does this section of the Gettysburg Address
cover that is not addressed in this section of The Social
Contract?
Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing
whether that nation, or any nation so conceived
and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met
on a great battle-field of that war. We have come
to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final
resting place for those who here gave their lives
that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting
and proper that we should do this.
-The Gettysburg Address,
Abraham Lincoln
