The lilacs in "When Lilacs Last in the Courtyard Bloom'd" symbolize?

a. Abraham Lincoln.


b. the end of slavery.


c. the end of the Civil War.

The lilacs in %26quot;When Lilacs Last in the Courtyard Bloom%26#039;d%26quot; symbolize?
I think you refer to the elegy by Walt Whitman - When Lilacs Last in the Dooryard Bloom%26#039;d%26quot;??





Lilacs were in full bloom at the time of Lincoln%26#039;s death, and in the poem they symbolize the poet%26#039;s love and homage for Lincoln.





These links should help.
