The Reframing Lincoln Seminar: Myth, Memory, and Changing Narratives Virtual Lecture Series

Offered in partnership with the Gilder Lehrman Institute of American History, this series of eight morning and mid-day lectures invites participants to learn from Dr. Jonathan White and other distinguished scholars as they focus on how to study Lincoln as a myth, a man, and a president. The lectures will explore Lincoln’s beliefs and actions on issues ranging from emancipation, to Black citizenship and equality, to civil liberties in America. Attention will be given not only to Lincoln as a politician, but Lincoln as a person, unraveling simplified narratives to unveil a figure in his full complexity.
