Women and Social Movements in the United States, 1600-2000 Trump talte til den amerikanske nation dagen efter frifindelsen i rigsretssagen – her er, hvad han sagde Derfor bringer Berlingske præsident Trumps tale – uforkortet USAs præsident, Donald Trump, undgik forleden den skæbne at blive fjernet fra sit embede. Men afstemningen i Senatet udstillede, hvor splittende en figur Trump er: Med undtagelse af den republikanske senator Mitt Romney blev rigsretssagen afgjort langs de samme linjer, som skiller demokrater og republikanere. Situationen i Amerika er følgende: De, der er for Trump, er bandsat for ham. De der er imod ham, er bandsat imod ham. Når præsident Trump ikke vil give formanden for Repræsentanternes Hus, Nancy Pelosi, hånden, som tilfældet var før Trumps State of The Union-tale forleden nat, og når Pelosi efter talen rev den i stykker bag præsidentens ryg, da er det tegn på et demokrati, som trænger til et lægebesøg. Torsdag efter frifindelsen i rigsretssagen stillede Trump sig op i 75-80 minutter og talte til sine støtter. Og så er der den republikanske præsident Donald J. Af og til skal ordene i den forbindelse bare tale for sig selv.
Statsministeriet - Nytårstaler Statsministeriet modtager hvert år mange henvendelser vedrørende statsministerens nytårstaler. Derfor kan du på Statsministeriets hjemmeside læse lidt om historien bag nytårstalerne, ligesom du kan høre og se de fleste gamle nytårstaler. I Danmark har der udviklet sig den tradition, at statsministeren i forbindelse med nytåret holder en nytårstale, som bliver transmitteret i radio og tv. Det var statsminister Thorvald Stauning, der holdt den allerførste nytårstale i 1940. Frem til 1959 blev talerne udelukkende transmitteret i radioen. Frem til i dag har statsministeren holdt nytårstaler med undtagelse af årene 1968, 1972, 1975 og 1984. På linket nedenfor er de nytårstaler, som Statsministeriet har kunnet rekvirere, gjort tilgængelige i det format, som de oprindeligt blev optaget i. Nytårstaler>> Under 'Taler' er alle nytårstaler siden 1998 desuden gjort skriftligt tilgængelige.
Religion and the Founding of the American Republic | Exhibitions This exhibition demonstrates that many of the colonies that in 1776 became the United States of America were settled by men and women of deep religious convictions who in the seventeenth century crossed the Atlantic Ocean to practice their faith freely. That the religious intensity of the original settlers would diminish to some extent over time was perhaps to be expected, but new waves of eighteenth century immigrants brought their own religious fervor across the Atlantic and the nation's first major religious revival in the middle of the eighteenth century injected new vigor into American religion. The result was that a religious people rose in rebellion against Great Britain in 1776, and that most American statesmen, when they began to form new governments at the state and national levels, shared the convictions of most of their constituents that religion was, to quote Alexis de Tocqueville's observation, indispensable to the maintenance of republican institutions.
Danske taler Temaer Retorik vedrører offentlige taler og sprog der har indflydelse på samfundet eller betydning i sociale sammenhænge. I Danmark markeres flere nationale eller politiske mærkedage med offentlige taler. Hvad er retorik? Retorik har traditionelt været forbundet med at holde tale i et offentligt forum, men opfattes i dag bredere, som en samtale mellem medlemmer af et samfund. Den almindeligste definition af retorik har siden antikken været at retorik er kunsten at anvende sproget til at kommunikere effektivt og overbevisende. Retorik har derfor både en praktisk og en teoretisk side. Moderne teorier om talekunst Fra de tidligste tider har sprog og retorik været genstand for refleksion og diskussion, bl.a. hos sofisterne i antikkens Grækenland der havde indsigt i sprogets kulturelle status og skabende kraft. Hos Aristoteles blev rådslagning og afvejning af synspunkter fundamentet for en inddeling af taler i tre hovedgenrer: lejlighedstalen, retstalen, eller den politisk-rådgivende tale.
