Héritage

Influence durable à travers les générations

Lincoln redefined the American experiment at its breaking point. By tying Union survival to emancipation, he helped end chattel slavery in the United States and inspired later movements for civil rights worldwide. His rhetoric—plain, precise, and elevated—set a standard for democratic leadership under pressure. Historians continue to debate his decisions, but his legacy as the emancipator-president remains central to how modern democracies confront injustice and division. Assassination (1865) remains a defining moment in Abraham Lincoln's enduring reputation.
