Resposta

The phrase "The world will little note, nor long remember what we say here" represents the literary device of **c. Antithesis**. Antithesis is a rhetorical device that contrasts two opposing ideas in a parallel structure. In this case, Lincoln contrasts the idea that the world will not remember their words with the enduring memory of the actions of those who fought at Gettysburg.
