The purpose of Abraham Lincoln's Emancipation Proclamation was to free all the slaves in Confederate American states that did not acknowledge Union control by January 1, 1983. This committed the Union to the purpose of abolishing all slavery in the United States.

Another purpose was perhaps to incite rebellion by the slaves in the South. It was also written to calm free black leaders in the North that were clamoring for Lincoln to do something toward ending slavery. It gave encouragement to the union army, that they were ending slavery for the most part if they won. Lincoln waited until the Union won a major victory before releasing the proclamation.

Why was Abraham Lincoln called the Great Emancipator?

yes, my civics teacher told me. he's known as the great emancipator. Lincoln, during the Civil war, was politically for slavery, but not morally. He only did this because he felt it would improve people's opinions about him, making it easier for him to maneuver throughout the battlefield without the public questioning him. Although he did state he had slaves, he treated them as family members and respected them. He eventually released the Emancipation Proclamation Act, which released all slaves in all states. Unfortunately, he did not control every state and slaves in the uncontrolled states were still held by the South.
