The U.S. Civil War is the most written about war in American literature. It affected hundreds of thousands of people from all walks of life, allowing its narrative to explore many universal themes. The main universal theme that is covered in Civil War literature is the glorified war. Young men have lost their lives on both sides, and often war is perceived as senseless killing.

Another common universal theme in Civil War literature is power. Along with war being glorified, we see different power struggles on both sides, amongst the people, fighting for the war to turn to their favor. Power is used to influence, is forever present, and can be used or abused. Power came in any forms; essential leaders such as the President and Army Generals, the states, and the federal government.

Glorified war and the use of power are some of the many examples of universal themes in Civil War literature.

Aloiza [94]

Answer: "I am sorry that I won't be able to say everything I'd planned in my remaining time, but please let me conclude with . . ."  Then state your most important idea and make your conclusion before time runs out.

Explanation:  If you may be cut off by the moderator or the chairman, your audience will at least hear the conclusion you planned. If you are stopped ( and it DOES happen ) in mid-sentence or without making your most important point, the audience will see you as disorganized, or insensitive to the time limits, and may have an unfavorable impression of you-- and they will have missed the purpose of your speech.
