An Ide ntity of One’s Own In the eternal universe, every human being has a one-off chance to live his existence is unique and irretrievable, for the mold with which he was made, as Rousseau said, was broken by god immediately afterwards.Fame, wealth and knowledge are merely worldly possessions that are within the reach of anybody striving for them. But your experience of and feelings about life are your own and not to be shared. No one can live yor life over again after your death. A full awareness of this will point out to you that the most important thing in your existence is you distinctive individuality or something special of yours. What really counts is not your worldly success but your peculiar insight into the meaning of life and your commitment to it, which add luster to your personality. It is not easy to be what one really is. There is many a person in the world who can be identic-feed as anything either his job, his status or his social role that shows no trace about his individuality. It does do him justice to say that he has no identity of his own, if he doesn’t know his own mind and all his things are either arranged by others or done on others’ suggestions; if his life, always occupied by external things, Is completely void of an inner world. You won’t be able to find anything whatever, from head to heart, that truly belongs to him. He is, indeed, no more than a shadow cast by somebody else or a machine capable of doing business.作为自己在永恒宇宙中的一种身份，每个人都有一次机会过上自己的生活，这是独一无二的，是无法挽回的，因为卢梭所说的那样，他被造的模子，在那之后立即被上帝打破了。

亚伯拉罕·林肯在葛底斯堡国家公墓上的演说背景知识：1863年11月19日，正值美国内战中葛底斯堡战役结束后四个半月，林肯在宾夕法尼亚州葛底斯堡的葛底斯堡国家公墓（Gettysburg National Cemetery）揭幕式中发表是之演说，哀悼在长达5个半月的葛底斯堡之役中阵亡的将士。

林肯的演讲于当天第二顺位发表，修辞细腻周密，其后成为美国历史上最伟大的演说之一。

出乎意料的是，尽管这场演说名垂青史，声震寰宇，其确切之措辞却颇受争议。

五份已知的演说稿，与当时新闻报导中的誊抄本，于若干细节上彼此互异。

Lincoln’s Gettysburg Address (on Nov.19,1863)Fourscore and seven years ago, our fathers brought forth upon this continent a new Nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal. Now, we are engaged in a great Civil War, testing whether that Nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battlefield of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field as a final resting-place for those who here gave their lives that that Nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.87年前，我们的先辈们在这个大陆上创立了一个新国家，它孕育于自由之中，奉行一切人生来平等的原则。

林肯(Abraham Lincoln)著名的葛底斯堡演说中英对照版Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, a new nation,conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that all men are created equal.八十七年以前，我们的祖先在这大陆上建立了一个国家，它孕育于自由，并且献身给一种理念，即所有人都是生来平等的。

Now we are engaged in a great civil war, testing whether that nation, or any nation so conceived and so dedicated, can long endure. We are met on a great battle-field of that war. We have come to dedicate a portion of that field, as a final resting place for those who here gave their lives that that nation might live. It is altogether fitting and proper that we should do this.当前，我们正在从事一次伟大的内战，我们在考验，究竟这个国家，或任何一个有这种主张和这种信仰的国家，是否能长久存在。

我们在那次战争的一个伟大的战场上集会。

我们来到这里，奉献那个战场上的一部分土地，作为在此地为那个国家的生存而牺牲了自己生命的人的永久眠息之所。

我们这样做，是十分合情合理的。

But, in a larger sense, we can not dedicate—we can not consecrate—we can not hallow this ground. The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here, but it can never forget what they did here.可是，就更深一层意义而言，我们是无从奉献这片土地的--无从使它成为圣地--也不能把它变为人们景仰之所。

That to secure these rights, governmentsare instituted among them, deriving their just power from the consent of the governed. That whenever any form of government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the right of the people to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their safety and happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shown that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable, than t right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such government, and to provide new guards for their future security. Such has been the patient sufferance of these Colonies; and such is now the necessity, which constrains them to alter their former systems of government. The history of the present King of Great Britain is usurpations, all having in direct object tyranny over these States.

葛底斯堡演说——林肯中英双语散文林肯的讲话是极简短、极朴素的。

这往往使那些滔滔不绝的讲演家大瞧不起。

葛底斯堡战役后，决定为死难烈士举行盛大葬礼。

掩葬委员会发给总统一张普通的请帖，他们以为他是不会来的，但林肯答应了。

既然总统来，那一定要讲演的，但他们已经请了著名演说家艾佛瑞特来做这件事，因此，他们又给林肯写了信，说在艾佛瑞特演说完毕之后，他们希望他“随便讲几句适当的话”。

这是一个侮辱，但林肯平静地接受了。

两星期内，他在穿衣、刮脸、吃点心时也想着怎样演说。

演说稿改了两三次，他仍不满意。

到了葬礼的前一天晚上，还在做最后的修改，然后半夜找到他的同僚高声朗诵。

走进会场时，他骑在马上仍把头低到胸前默想着演说辞。

那位艾佛瑞特讲演了两个多小时，将近结束时，林肯不安地掏出旧式眼镜，又一次看他的讲稿。

他的演说开始了，一位记者支上三角架准备拍摄照片，等一切就绪的时候，林肯已走下讲台。

这段时间只有两分钟，而掌声却持续了10分钟。

后人给以极高评价的那份演说辞，在今天译成中文，也不过400字。

Commented by 鱼化石：林肯的这篇演说是演说史上著名的篇章，其思想的深刻，行文的严谨，语言的冼练，确实是不愧彪炳青史的大手笔。

尤其是其中的第二段，建议加以仔细分析，其语义的承转，结构的安排，甚至包括其句式的使用，无一不是极尽推敲之作。
