Answer:
where's the sentence/underlined part?
Answer:
We must dedicate ourselves here if we are to continue the work of the dead. Rather, we should come here to draw inspiration from the honored dead and increase our commitment to the cause they died for. That this nation, under God, will have a fresh birth of freedom and that the government of the people, by the people, for the people will be restored.
Explanation:
Original Paragraph below:
It is for us the living, rather, to be dedicated here to the unfinished work which they who fought here have thus far so nobly advanced. It is rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us—that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they here gave the last full measure of devotion—that we here highly resolve that these dead shall not have died in vain—that this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom, and that government of the people, by the people, for the people, shall not perish from the earth.
Answer + Explanation:
Lady Macduff complains about her husband and how he is a coward for leaving his family. She is angry and believes that “when our actions do not, our fears make us traitors” (4.2.5), meaning she thinks he ran away to England out of cowardice, and that makes him a traitor to his family. Lady Macduff’s demands to know why her husband left and her accusing him of being a coward, showing how Shakespeare uses the theme of manhood again. Lady Macbeth’s angry complaints imply that a real man would not sacrifice his family’s safety for the good of his country.
Lady Macduff strongly believes that her husband in a traitor and that “his flight was madness” (4.2.4).
Lady Macduff also accuses her husband of being a coward and not being a man. However, I think Lady Macduff does so because she feels betrayed and sad that her husband left her to pursue his own selfish ambitions. To her, unlike Lady Macbeth, what makes of him a coward is leaving his family, while Lady Macbeth thinks that being a coward is not going after his ambitions.
