Abraham Lincoln adressed the American people with a speech that, as a side fact, is one of the most quoted speeches in the history of the U.S.
Over the years scholars have analyzed the speech, and they suggest that Lincoln used extreme care with his words. He wanted to deliver a heartfelt and precise message in moments of extreme national crisis. The magnitude of the battle in Gettysburg stunned the whole nation, and the dedication of a cementery at the site of the Civil War's most pivotal battle was seen as a solemn event, that empathized with the whole nation.
He placed this battle within the larger context of the American history, by making reference 87 years before to it's foundation. Lincoln sought to transform America by making an attempt at redefining liberty and nationalism by fusing the two together. Lincoln forever changed the way we think about the country.

Explanation:
Realism is a literary movement that was created in response
to romanticism. Romanticism had at its
basis—like the name suggests—a romantic (almost too optimistic) notion of all
about which was written. Realism, on
the other hand, was just the opposite in that it portrayed society (reality) as
the way it really was almost pessimistically (or at least as it was seen by the
author) and can be seen as an equal and opposite reaction to romanticism.
The answer is number 4.The stanzas combine to convey that love is complicated.There is glory and there is pain.There is pleasure and there are wounds. The persona in the poem seems to have had some experience in love affairs and these stanzas are full of expressions that contradict each other .That is why I think the author is trying to convey how intricate love could be.
