Declaration of Independence
1776年7月4日,《独立宣言》(Declaration of Independence)正式签署。这份文件宣布13个美洲殖民地脱离英国统治而独立,这13个殖民地将组成一个新的国家——美利坚合众国(United States of America)。现在,7月4日独立日(Independence Day)被设为美国联邦假日。
《独立宣言》的原文由托马斯·杰斐逊(Thomas Jefferson)起草,约翰·亚当斯(John Adams)和本杰明·富兰克林(Benjamin Franklin)校订。有趣的是,文件中并没有提到Declaration of Independence这样的说法。这个版本保存在美国国会图书馆(the Library of Congress)。而被视为正式文件的签名版现陈列在华盛顿哥伦比亚特区的国家档案馆(National Archives)。
“人人生而平等”(all men are created equal)是《独立宣言》中经常被人引用的原则,最著名的一次引用可能是亚伯拉罕·林肯(Abraham Lincoln)于1863年11月在宾夕法尼亚发表的葛底斯堡演说(Gettysburg Address)中对该原则的间接援引。
