Re: 稿寫好了!(二)
※ 引述《crystalsky (一切漫遊的起點)》之銘言:
: 甲: Our greatest president, Abraham Lincoln said in 1865 that slavery was
: somehow, the cause of the war. In the north, industry was prosperous.
: Since the weather was warmer and the soil was more fertile in the south,
: agriculture was the main economic activity. The southern people "bought"
: the blacks to work for them. Because it needs more labor to grow cotton.
: They treated them as goods instead of "people." They tortured the slaves.
: Even the most basic rights of being a man were deprived. The terrible
: darkness devoured them. But northern Americans used machine in their
: factories, and they regarded that all human beings were created equal.
: So they decided to defend their belivies.
: B: Doctor乙, Can you give us other reasons of the war?
: 乙: For half of a century or so after 1865, most historians regarded slavery
: as the main cause of the war. But many historians then and since disagreed
: strongly with this view. They think the southern states had gone to war not
: to protect slavery but to disclaim each state should have independence.
: The south think no one can withdraw sovereign communities which they
: originally had. Some said that the existence of slavery was only an
: incident. On the other hand, the north wanted union, a country, a
: government that had the right to rule whole America.
: A: Any other causes, professor丙?
: 丙: There is one more reason.
我覺得可以加這句ㄟ.many historians saw clashes between ecnomics interest
group and classes as the centeral theme of history.
As we know, the main economic support in the
: south was farming. On the contrary, it is industrialising capitalism in
: the north. So the clashes between two differnet economic insterest gruops
: and classes began. The south fought not only for the principle of state
: rights adn self-government but also for the land, the age of chivalry, and
: the nobility of aristocrats.
: B: Now we know the causes of the war very well. Thank you for being interviewed
: and giving so many details of Civil War.
: 待續...
