Which sentence best explains Lincoln’s wartime decisions?

adapted from Lincoln the Great
by Wilfred W. McClay

We should remember too that, with events controlling him, Lincoln had to do things as president that he was not equipped to do, either by experience or temperament. He had not only opposed the aggression of the Mexican War but was something of an antimilitarist1 who abhorred1 violence. How then to account for the fact that he became such a remarkably effective war leader, indeed the quintessential2 war president—the only president in our history whose entire term of office was defined by the conditions of war, and the employer and enabler of such legendarily destructive warriors as Grant and Sherman? It is surely one of the many mysteries about this man.

He also excelled in understanding the larger political dimensions of the war, in riding the flow of events and changing Northern public opinion with a consummate3 sense of timing. He understood the importance of isolating and containing the South, keeping the border states out of the Confederacy and European mischief-makers out of the struggle. He gradually and deftly4 redefined the war as an unlimited, total struggle to overthrow the South’s political system, and pushed his military leaders toward a strategy of unconditional surrender that was appropriate to the war’s changing objectives. Such maneuvering helps us appreciate why Lincoln at first so actively suppressed the idea that the war was to be a war for emancipation, to the extent of countermanding5 John C. Frémont’s Missouri Emancipation Proclamation in 1861. It helps us appreciate the mixture of genuine moral idealism and shrewd military calculation that lay behind Lincoln’s decision to issue the Emancipation Proclamation, a document that is often unfairly disparaged6 on the grounds that it refrained from abolishing slavery and technically freed almost no one.

Which brings us to the question of Lincoln’s halfway measures, whose fuller context we need to remember. He rose to prominence as a politician who was antislavery but also anti-abolitionist. The strategy he preferred would have contained the spread of slavery, then gradually eliminated it—as opposed to overturning the institution in one grand liberatory7 gesture. Such a position perhaps seems incoherent now, and it failed in the end, since the South concluded that it could not trust President Lincoln, who received not a single electoral vote from the South, to protect its “peculiar institution.” But it was a position predicated on Lincoln’s belief that the maintenance of the Union was the key to all other political goods.

Solar Eclipse

Paragraph 1
A solar eclipse can be a spectacular event to witness. Whether it is a partial or a total eclipse or not, seeing the shadow of the Moon cover some or all of the Sun's surface in the middle of the day can be quite dramatic! Eclipses happen when the Moon comes between the Earth and the Sun, blocking some of the Sun's light. If you look online, you can find some impressive eclipse photos taken by professional and amateur photographers. On average, solar eclipses happen twice a year. Some of these photos have been touched up, or improved, using computer software, but others are completely real.

Paragraph 2
When the time gets closer, you will need to prepare for viewing a solar eclipse! A solar eclipse can be visible in different parts of the world; however, you have to take some safety measures when viewing one. Fortunately, there are a number of perfectly safe ways to view such an amazing event. You cannot simply look up at the sun, or you will ruin your eyes in a matter of moments. If the idea of watching a solar eclipse appeals to you, check various astronomy Web sites to find out when the next one will be occurring.

Paragraph 3

A special material makes them safe for viewing the Sun. One safe way to view eclipses is with "eclipse glasses." The frames of the glasses are made of cardboard, and the lenses are made of special material that blocks out all but a tiny bit of light. These are available by mail order from telescope shops and are also sold by science museums. Eclipse glasses do not cost more than a dollar or two a pair. However, make sure to order them at least a month ahead of time because they tend to sell out in the days before the event.

Paragraph 4
Another safe way to view the solar eclipse is to make a viewer yourself! The easiest kind is a pinhole viewer. You can try this out on any sunny day. Just get two pieces of white cardboard, about the size of a sheet of printer paper. Make a tiny pinhole in the center of one piece. Then hold it in the sunlight so the sun shines through the hole, and hold the other piece of board underneath. After a few attempts, you should be able to line up the Sun's image so it projects onto the second piece of white board. If you move the cardboard with the pinhole farther away from the bottom cardboard, the image will be bigger. Now, you can view a solar eclipse easily, and protect your precious eyesight!

TO KILL A MOCKINGBIRD BY HARPER LEE QUESTIONS---
Prompt: At the end of Part One, Atticus claims that “it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird” (Lee 119). Defending Atticus’s statement, Miss Maudie later explains, “Mockingbirds don’t do one thing but make music for us to enjoy. They don’t eat up peoples’ gardens, don’t nest in corncribs, they don’t do one thing but sing their hearts out for us. That’s why it’s a sin to kill a mockingbird” (Lee 119). Given this explanation, which characters in the book might be regarded as “mockingbird figures”? Provide two characters, and explain, through multiple examples, how each might be regarded as such.

1. List which two characters you will be arguing are “mockingbird” characters:
I chose Boo Radley and Tom Robinson

1B. Write bullet points on why they are considered "mockingbirds"
1C. Cite Evidence + Chapter# Page# + Go back to previous events in the book.

2. For the first character you choose, explain why they are a “mockingbird” character. Make specific reference to the text. (For example, do not simply say, “Sally is a mockingbird character because she is nice.” You should say, “Sally is a mockingbird character because she did X and did not do Y.”)

3. Repeat step 2 for the second character you chose:

4. Now, craft your thesis statement using the information above. (Example: “So-and-so and so-and-so are ‘mockingbird’ characters because [state a succinct summary of the reasons you chose Character 1 and Character 2]…”)


5. Your thesis should be a single sentence. Now, for your roadmap (which comes right after the thesis statement) you can explain yourself a bit more, giving specific examples or reasons why you made your claim. Write your roadmap below.
Example: [Thesis statement:] Sally and Bert are both mockingbird characters because they fly and enjoy singing. [Roadmap:] Sally routinely flies over the neighborhood in her private jet, while Bert sits on Lucinda’s kitchen window and croons hits from the 50s.

Take a moment to think about the story of "Proserpine." Given your level of understanding of the text, why do you think this story was an important part of both Greek and Roman mythology? Do you think this story could be adapted for our current culture? Using what you have learned of schema and inferring, develop an overview of how you would create a contemporary version of "Proserpine." Compose a paragraph describing how you would modernize "Proserpine." Where would the story take place? Would the characters change or remain the same? Would the myth still be used to explain the changing of the seasons? Or would you use the story to explain some other concept or explore a different theme?
