  • The state of New York during the American Civil War was a major influence in national politics, the Union war effort, and the media coverage of the war. New York was the most populous state in the Union during the Civil War, and provided more troops to the U.S. army than any other state, as well as several significant military commanders and leaders. New York sent 400,000 men to the armed forces during the war. 22,000 soldiers died from combat wounds; 30,000 died from disease or accidents; 36 were executed. The state government spent $38 million on the war effort; counties, cities and towns spent another $111 million, especially for recruiting bonuses. The voters were shaply divided politically. A significant anti-war movement emerged, particularly in the mid- to late-war years. The Democrats were divided between War Democrats who supported the war and Copperheads who wanted an early peace. Republicans divided between moderates who supported Lincoln, and Radical Republicans who demanded harsh treatment of the rebel states. New York provided William H. Seward as Lincoln's Secretary of State, as well as several important voices in Congress. The press, largely based in New York City, helped shape and mold state and national opinion. The New York Tribune influenced Republican editorials across the country. Influential magazines included Harper's Weekly and Frank Leslie's Illustrated Newspaper. Thomas Nast was among the early political cartoonists. In the decades after the war ended, numerous memorials and monuments were erected across the Empire State to commemorate specific regiments, units, and officers associated with the war effort. Several archives and repositories, as well as historical societies, hold archives and collections of relics and artifacts. (en)
  • Lo Stato di New York nella guerra di secessione americana ebbe una vasta influenza sulla politica nazionale, contribuì ampiamente a dare il proprio contributo nello sforzo bellico a favore dell'Unione e mantenne, grazie ai suoi numerosi quotidiani e periodici, una vasta copertura mediatica del conflitto indirizzando larghe porzioni dell'opinione pubblica. New York fu lo Stato federato più popoloso durante la guerra civile, tanto da rifornire di truppe l'Union Army più di qualsiasi altro, oltre che a dare diversi comandanti e leader militati significativi. L'"Empire State" - com'era allora denominato - rimase altresì politicamente diviso, con la presenza ad un certo momento di un significativo movimento facente capo al pacifismo, in particolar modo negli anni tra il 1862-63 e il 1864; ma fu anche una forte base per la raccolta di consensi dei Radical Republicans i quali reclamarono un trattamento che fosse il più duro possibile nei confronti degli "Stati ribelli", favorendone poi la suddivisione in distretti militari nel corso dell'Era della Ricostruzione. New York fornì un elemento chiave dell'Amministrazione della presidenza di Abraham Lincoln, il Segretario di Stato degli Stati Uniti d'America William H. Seward, oltre a diverse altre voci importanti di Capitol Hill. Il frontespizio di Harper's Weekly. A Journal of Civilization con un'illustrazione del presidente eletto degli Stati Uniti d'America Abraham Lincoln opera di Winslow Homer e basata su un ritratto di Mathew B. Brady. La stampa ed in generale i mass media statali, fortemente concentrati a New York, ebbero la capacità d'influenzare non solamente gli uomini pubblici e l'opinione generale della popolazione sull'andamento e la prosecuzione della situazione di belligeranza contro gli Stati Confederati d'America, ma aiutò anche a formare e a plasmare le scelte e molte delle decisioni intraprese. Tra i periodici più importanti vi furono The New York Times, il New York Tribune, Harper's Weekly, il giornale illustrato di (il ) ed altri. L'illustratore e vignettista di origini tedesche americane Thomas Nast si rivelerà uno dei primi fumettisti politici operanti a tempo pieno. Nei decenni immediatamente successivi alla conclusione del conflitto innumerevoli memoriali e monumenti vennero eretti praticamente tutto il territorio statale per commemorare reggimenti, unità militari terrestri, unità militari navali e ufficiali e generali dell'Unione specifici associati allo sforzo bellico. Diversi depositi di documenti, così come svariate società storiche, conservano archivi e collezioni di cimeli e manufatti. (it)
