| 520 | _a"The Uprising of a Great People" by Comte Agénor de Gasparin is a historical account written in the early 1860s. The work examines the American Civil War, particularly focusing on the tensions surrounding slavery and the political landscape leading up to the election of Abraham Lincoln. The text reflects on the moral and social implications of the conflict, emphasizing the notion of American liberty and the significant changes that ensue as a result of the uprising against slavery. The opening of the work introduces the context of the American crisis in 1861, where Gasparin expresses a profound belief in an impending uprising of the American people against the institution of slavery. He elucidates the grave situation that the United States faced, highlighting how the Southern States' pursuit of slavery led to a moral and political degradation of the nation. As he articulates the need for revolutionary action, he underscores the importance of European support for the cause of liberty in America, framing the Civil War not just as a national struggle but as a broader moral imperative for civilized societies. Gasparin's passionate tone sets the stage for a compelling investigation into the factors that drove the United States into conflict and the hope for its eventual liberation from the shackles of slavery.
