Question

Again and again the Romans were defeated, till it almost seemed as if the Britons really would succeed in driving them out of the country. Boadicea herself led the soldiers, encouraging them with her brave words. "It is better to die with honor than to live in slavery," she said. "I am a woman, but I would rather die than yield. Will you follow me, men?" and of course the men followed her gladly. At last the Roman leader was so downcast with his many defeats that he went himself to the British camp, bearing in his hand a green branch as a sign of peace. When Boadicea was told that an ambassador from the Romans wished to speak to her, she replied proudly, "My sword alone shall speak to the Romans." And when the Roman leader asked for peace, she answered, "You shall have peace, peace, but no submission. A British heart will choose death rather than lose liberty. There can be peace only if you promise to leave the country.” –“The Story of a Warrior Queen,” Henrietta Elizabeth Marshall What theme is supported by this passage? Leadership is overrated. Leadership comes in all forms. Leadership is required for victory. Leadership means nothing without resources.

Answer 1

Answer:

Leadership comes in all form

Explanation:

In the passage, Boadicea is depicted as a brave leader who motivates her army to be brave and fearless. She is dedicated not to surrender and lose the battle. Even though she is in advantage, she does not stop, she continues to motivate her army and not to give up on her goal and intentions.

At this time of war, Rome condemns and restricts women from their rights.  She is a wise leader and she replies to Roman's proposal to emphasize the British fight for liberty.  Her role is quite important because she proves all prejudice discrimination. She is a strong woman who led her army to victory.
