词汇 abraham lincoln
词源
Abraham Lincoln. Old Abe’s nicknames include, among others, Honest Abe, The Railsplitter, The Liberator, The Emanci- pator, Uncle Abe, Father Abraham, The Chainbreaker, and The Giver of Freedom. He was called many derogatory names, too, notably the sarcastic Spot Lincoln, because he had supported the anti–Mexican War resolution in 1847, demanding that President Polk identify the exact spot where Polk claimed Mex- ico had already started a war on American soil. During the Civil War Lincon was called Ape in the South, the word mock- ing his appearance and playing on Abe. Tycoon, in its sense of military leader, was also applied to him at that time.
