  • Battle Cry of Freedom (dt.: Schlachtruf der Freiheit) ist vom amerikanischen Komponisten George Frederick Root während des Amerikanischen Bürgerkriegs im Jahre 1862 verfasstes Lied. Die Textversion der Nordstaaten wurde während des Wahlkampfes von 1864 von dem republikanischen Präsidentschaftskandidaten Abraham Lincoln als Wahlkampfschlager verwendet. Das ursprünglich für den Gebrauch durch die Union vorgesehene Lied wurde so populär, dass es für die Konföderation adaptiert und somit auch südlich der Mason-Dixon-Line gesungen wurde. (de)
  • The "Battle Cry of Freedom", also known as "Rally 'Round the Flag", is a song written in 1862 by American composer George Frederick Root (1820–1895) during the American Civil War. A patriotic song advocating the causes of Unionism and abolitionism, it became so popular that composer and lyricist W. H. Barnes adapted it for the Confederacy. A modified Union version was used as the campaign song for the Lincoln-Johnson ticket in the 1864 presidential election, as well as in elections after the war, such as for Garfield in the 1880 U.S. presidential election. The song was so popular that the music publisher had 14 printing presses going at one time and still could not keep up with demand. It is estimated that over 700,000 copies of this song were put in circulation. Louis Moreau Gottschalk thought so highly of the song that in his diary he confided that he thought "it should be our national anthem" and used it as the basis for his 1863 concert paraphrase for solo piano "Le Cri de délivrance," opus 55, and dedicated it to Root, who was a personal friend. Charles Ives quoted the song in several compositions, including his own patriotic song, "They Are There". > }}" /> (en)

Una canción patriótica advocando por la causa de la Unión, se convirtió en tan popular que el compositor H. L. Schreiner y el letrista W. H. Barnes la adaptaron para los Estados Confederados de América. La versión de la Unión fue utilizada como canción de campaña de Lincoln-Johnson para las elecciones presidenciales de 1864. La canción era tan popular que el editor tenía 14 prensas de impresión funcionando al mismo tiempo y todavía no podía satisfacer la demanda. Se estima que más de 700.000 copias de esta canción fueron puestas en circulación. Charles Ives citó la canción en su propia canción patriótica, "They Are There". (es)

  • A glee club came down from Chicago, bringing with them the new song, "We'll rally 'round the flag, boys", and it ran through the camp like wildfire. The effect was little short of miraculous. It put as much spirit and cheer into the army as a victory. Day and night one could hear it by every camp fire and in every tent. I never shall forget how the men rolled out the line, "And although he may be poor, he shall never be a slave." I do not know whether Mr. Root knows what good work his song did for us there, but I hope so. (en)
  • The ability of "The Battle Cry of Freedom" to bridge divisions over emancipation is not surprising. The song's definition of the Northern cause is purposely open-ended. Those looking for anti-slavery sentiments could find them, but these elements were not so pronounced as to offend those who were solely unionists. The chorus was the key, for it was there that Root described why Northerners rallied around the flag. The first line boldly endorsed a perpetual Union – "The Union forever" – followed by a strong dismissal of secession: "Down with the traitor, up with the star." However, the battle cry Root shouted was one of "freedom." Freedom had many meanings in the Civil War – for instance, freedom from Confederate political tyranny or the oft-perceived "slaveholders' conspiracy" – but, in the context of Root’s political beliefs and other activities, he clearly meant to suggest some degree of abolitionism.
