A. the aftermath of the battle.

Explanation:

Lincoln's Gettysburg Address is one of the most famous speeches ever given. Even though short, the speech greatly resounds with the feelings and emotions of the audience. Lincoln's focus is on the aftermath of the battle in Gettysburg. According to him, several brave men gave their life for a grand purpose. It is now everyone's duty to honor their sacrifice by not allowing it to have been a vain one. The fallen soldiers left behind some unfinished work, even though they promoted advances. It is up to the living to keep what they fought for - freedom. As Lincoln says, "that from these honoured 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."
