A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War

Most Americans consider Abraham Lincoln to be the greatest president in history. His legend as the Great Emancipator has grown to mythic proportions as hundreds of books, a national holiday, and a monument in Washington, D.C., extol his heroism and martyrdom. But what if most everything you knew about Lincoln were false? What if, instead of an American hero who sought to free the slaves, Lincoln were in fact a calculating politician who waged the bloodiest war in american history in order to build an empire that rivaled Great Britain's? In The Real Lincoln, author Thomas J. DiLorenzo uncovers a side of Lincoln not told in many history books and overshadowed by the immense Lincoln legend.

Through extensive research and meticulous documentation, DiLorenzo portrays the sixteenth president as a man who devoted his political career to revolutionizing the American form of government from one that was very limited in scope and highly decentralized—as the Founding Fathers intended—to a highly centralized, activist state. Standing in his way, however, was the South, with its independent states, its resistance to the national government, and its reliance on unfettered free trade. To accomplish his goals, Lincoln subverted the Constitution, trampled states' rights, and launched a devastating Civil War, whose wounds haunt us still. According to this provacative book, 600,000 American soldiers did not die for the honorable cause of ending slavery but for the dubious agenda of sacrificing the independence of the states to the supremacy of the federal government, which has been tightening its vise grip on our republic to this very day.

You will discover a side of Lincoln that you were probably never taught in school—a side that calls into question the very myths that surround him and helps explain the true origins of a bloody, and perhaps, unnecessary war.

"A devastating critique of America's most famous president."

— Joseph Sobran, commentator and nationally syndicated columnist

"Today's federal government is considerably at odds with that envisioned by the framers of the Constitution. Thomas J. DiLorenzo gives an account of How this come about in The Real Lincoln."

— Walter E. Williams, from the foreword

"A peacefully negotiated secession was the best way to handle all the problems facing Americans in 1860. A war of coercion was Lincoln's creation. It sometimes takes a century or more to bring an important historical event into perspective. This study does just that and leaves the reader asking, 'Why didn't we know this before?'"

— Donald Livingston, professor of philosophy, Emory University

"Professor DiLorenzo has penetrated to the very heart and core of American history with a laser beam of fact and analysis."

— Clyde Wilson, professor of history, University of South Carolina, and editor, The John C. Calhoun Papers

A New Look at Abraham Lincoln, His Agenda, and an Unnecessary War

• 《怀念狼》

  作者：饭思葱 发布时间：2006-03-27 11:47:57

  作者的写作意图显得十分模糊。有关狼的故事本身，以及语言的精美，都已经被淡化了——当然，所谓淡化，与写作的好坏无关——只是能明显的读出，作者的很多力气，都花在表达一些其他的东西。在后记里，按照作者自己的话说，这其他的东西是一种对于“意象”的尝试。

  他写道：“……局部的意象已经不为我看重了，而直接将情节处理成意象。”所谓意象，作者说，是“把一种意识，以实景写出来”，那么在《怀念狼》里，这种意识的表达，被作者处理成一些矛盾而诡异的情节出现。这样就不难理解，这个故事为什么总在现实与幻觉之间摇摆不定了。

  而这种“意识”，具化到作品本身，可能包含着多层涵义：譬如，一个猎人，“舅舅”，在面对对手，狼，的时候，来自使命与习惯赋予的杀戮的本能，又同时带有对“对手”的敬畏，以及偶尔发生的对杀戮行为的迷思——这种迷思完全不是来自于“我”所秉持的国家法律规定的“不能杀”，而是对杀戮行为本身的恍惚——书中有一段，舅舅一气之下离开，带走了“我”拼命保护的小狼崽，交给了老道士喂养放生，却又在“我”问起时矢口否认：“这，这怎么可能？这不是害我吗？”，再有，可能是对失却对手的恐惧（猎人们纷纷得了怪病的情节），更多的可能是这样纷杂情绪混乱交织导致的一种不安和恐慌。这一系列“意识”在文中的具化就是各种“魔由心生”一般的离奇遭遇。

  故事围绕“我们”去找仅存的十五匹狼展开，到所有的狼都被射杀结束。“我”显然不是文中的第一主角，然而“我”的心理变化却是文章叙事情绪张弛的一条主线。文章的开始，情绪显得相当克制，因此故事发展也相对理性。随着情节发展，故事越收越紧，气氛越来越诡异，幻象丛生。直到“舅舅”射杀最后一匹狼，这种情绪也被推向了极致。

  然而作者直到故事的最终，仍然没有将情绪缓和下来。在一切结束以后，“我”，以及整个村子的人，纷纷出现了“狼性”的表现，故事在一片紧张里收笔。对于这样的结局，无疑是作者的一种逆向意见的表态。这不仅仅是要表达，在失却“对手”和“天敌”以后，一个物种发展平衡的丧失，或者是人类本性里“狼性”的唤醒，而更多的是对于人类行为的一种谴责，人类将自以为是的单方面决定强加于其他物种。作者所不能容忍的决定不仅仅是“杀戮”这一方向上的决定，可能也包括对“保护”这种行为的反感。当然，作者并没有谴责性的描述，而是直接作出了判决：让人群为此作出了偿还。不知道有没有这个意思。
