 AGES: LINCOLN IN DIVERSE PERSPECTIVES \n  \nDuring his life\, Abraham Linc
 oln elicited many reactions\, ranging from adulation to execration. How di
 d Lincoln\, with little in his background to recommend him\, gain the Pres
 idency? How did he meet his challenges and accomplish his goals? How was h
 e regarded in his public career\, not only in the South\, but also in the 
 North\, the region that had provided his electoral victory? How did he dea
 l with allies and opponents? How did he change the concept of the Presiden
 cy and the structure of our republic? Why was and is he still a controvers
 ial figure? The time and manner of his death placed him almost beyond deta
 ched historical examination\, but this sesquicentennial commemoration offe
 rs an opportunity to survey different views of Lincoln over time and into 
 the present.\n\nStephen Smith is a reader and independent scholar of histo
 ry. He has B.A. and M.A. degrees in history from Western Kentucky Universi
 ty and was a Rotary Foundation Scholar at the University of Nottingham in 
 England. He also holds a J.D. degree from Duke University and completed th
 e certificate course at the Lay School of Theology of Virginia Theological
  Seminary. He has practiced law privately and in the civil service\, autho
 red several reviews and articles for various publications\, and given pres
 entations on historical and other topics. Like Lincoln\, he was born in Ke
 ntucky. \n\nLocation: Lloyd House\, 220 N. Washington St.\nContact Phone:
