Andrew Jackson
But this August dignity I treat of, is not the dignity of kings and robes, but that abounding
dignity
which has no robed investiture. Thou shalt see it shining in the arm that wields a pick or drives a
spike; that democratic dignity which, on all hands, radiates without end from God; Himself! The
great God absolute! The centre and circumference of all democracy! His omnipresence, our
divine equality!
If, then, to meanest mariners, and renegades, and castaways, I shall hereafter ascribe high
qualities, though dark...then against all mortal critics bear me out in it, thou just Spirit of
Equality,
which hast spread one royal mantle of humanity over all my kind! Bear me out in it, thou great
democratic God!...Thou who didst pick up Andrew Jackson from the pebbles; who didst hurl him
upon a war-horse; who didst thunder him higher than a throne! Thou who, in all Thy mighty,
earthly marchings, ever cullest Thy selectest champions from the kingly commons; bear me out
in
it, O God!
Herman Melville, Moby-Dick
Andrew Jackson, surrounded by myth and image, is a compact symbol
representing the ideology of an entire generation. Jackson exemplified the
common man, the farmer politician, military prowess and democracy for his time. His name and
his philosophy define an age in American history. Andrew Jackson's glorification was a direct
result of the desires and anxieties of society. His image was disseminated through society by the
rhetoric of his day and later altered through time in the collective memory of America.
