The Constitutional Convention also recognized as the Philadelphia Convention took place from 25th May to 17th September 1787 in Philadelphia. Although the Convention was meant to revise the league of states and the first order of government following the Articles of Confederation, the plan from the source of several of its defenders, chief amongst them James Madison of Virginia and Alexander Hamilton of New York, was to form a unique government preferably fixing the current one.

Read the passage below. Highlight or underline words and phrases that you feel are important to understanding the document. In t

matrenka [14]

The most important words and phrases in this text are those that emphasize the sacrifice of soldiers who died for the freedom of the country.

In this case, we can note that the most important words and phrases presented in the text shown in the question above are:

" The brave men, living and dead, who struggled here, have consecrated it, far above our poor power to add or detract. "
"that from these honored dead we take increased devotion to that cause for which they 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 "

These sentences are important for understanding the text because they explore that the fact that war ended the lives of men willing to fight for their own country and that these men, as well as the suffering that war goes through, cannot be forgotten, but it must be perpetuated and explained to the next generations so that moments like this are not repeated.

Lincolns goal in declaiming this speech was to promote honor to dead soldiers by dedicating a cemetery to them, regardless of whether they belonged to the union or the confederation.

Furthermore, he wanted to inspire the people, to be proud of his soldiers and to continue to fight for freedom, as many died for it.

With that, we can conclude that Lincoln stimulated the sentimentality of the public, leaving them moved by the sacrifice of American and honorable men.

In this case, we can see that Lincoln used the retoricon resource known as pathos, which reinforces sentimentality in a speech. You can get more information about pathos at the link below:
