Passage Three On November 19, 1863, Abraham Lincoln went to Gettysburg in Pennsylvania to speak at the National Soldiers Cemetery. The Civil War was still going on. There was much criticism

33、 of President Lincoln at the time. He was not at all popular. He had been invited to speak at Gettysburg only out of courtesy. The principal speaker was to be Edward Everett, a famous statesman and speaker of the day. Everett was a handsome man and very popular everywhere. It is said that Lincoln pr

34、epared his speech on the train while going to Gettysburg. Late that night, alone in his hotel room and tired out, he again worked briefly on the speech. The next day Everett spoke first. he spoke for an hour and 57 minutes. His speech was a perfect example of the rich oratory of the day. Then Lincol

35、n rose. The crowd of 15,000 people at first paid little attention to him. He spoke for only nine minutes. At the end there was little applause. Lincoln turned to a friend and remarked, “I have failed again.” On the train back to Washington he commented sadly, “That speech was a flat failure, and the

36、 people are disappointed.” Some newspaper at first criticized the speech. But little by little, as people read the speech, 6 they began to understand better.

37、n school child learns Lincolns Gettysburg Address by heart. Now everyone thinks of it as one of the greatest orations ever given in American history. 26.

41、ew other pairs of culture as distinct from each other as the Japanese and Americans. Japans many centuries of history and especially its Buddhist heritage have given the Japanese an attitude of repose the best course is to let it be: When the time is ripe, things will work out by themselves. America

42、, on the other hand, is just a few centuries old and displays an almost volcanic liveliness and restlessness. For the Japanese, social harmony has a prior claim in every circumstance; for the Americans, harmony is the result of the rational interaction of free and fair-minded people. One does not li

43、ghtly move from traditions in Japan, many of which are centuries old; in the United States, the habits and attitudes of even ones parents generation are suspect. Every culture, through its legal and institutional arrangements, mirrors the societys resolution of some basic human problems. These can p

44、rovide a useful framework for the analysis of cultural differences. Organizations also face the same problems and usually take their cue from the prevailing culture in designing solutions to their problems.
