Deutsch: Thaddeus Stevens (* 4. April 1792 in Danville, Vermont, † 11. August 1868 in Washington, D.C.), auch bekannt als "Der große einfache Bürger" ("The Great Commoner"), war ein außerordentlich radikaler Republikaner und Anwalt, bekannt für die Verteidigung geflohener Sklaven. Nachdem er 1814 das Dartmouth College absolviert hatte, ging er nach York, wo er an einer Schule unterrichtete und Recht studierte. Nach seiner Approbation als Anwalt, etablierte er 1815 eine erfolgreiche Anwaltskanzlei, erst in Gettysburg und später in Lancaster.
English: Thaddeus Stevens ( April 4, 1792 – August 11, 1868), was a member of the United States House of Representatives from Pennsylvania. He was the powerful leader of the Radical Republicans during the American Civil War and Reconstruction. His biographer characterizes him as, "The Great Commoner, savior of free public education in Pennsylvania, national Republican leader in the struggles against slavery in the United States and intrepid mainstay of the attempt to secure racial justice for the freedmen during Reconstruction, the only member of the House of Representatives ever to have been known, even if mistakenly, as the 'dictator' of Congress."
