Analysis Of Julius Caesar Act 3 Scene 1

The conspirators against Caesar recruit Brutus, who had great influence over the people of Rome and was trusted by Caesar. With his help they attack Caesar in the senate.

“It’s only hubris if I fail” by Julius Caesar. This quote can summarize Chris McCandless and Victor Frankenstein perfectly. They were very prideful and knew that they would succeed in everything they do, which they somewhat did. Chris lived in the wild for 100 days but died and Victor created a monster that killed people. So both their pride brought them to failure.

During the second half of the speech Antony states, “And, being men, bearing the will of Caesar, It will inflame you, it will make you mad.” He is using Caesar’s will and saying that it will make the people mad to manipulate the crowd into wanting to hear Caesar’s will and listening to Antony’s side of the argument, wanting the conspirators to be held accountable for Caesar’s death. Marc Antony later also uses Caesar’s body and the robes he was stabbed in as props. While gathering the crowd tight around him Antony states, “Look, in this place, ran Cassius' dagger through See what a rent the envious Casca made: Through this, the well-beloved Brutus stabbed.” When only reading the text it might be hard to see at first but Antony is holding the body of Caesar while saying this.

In the play, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus has just killed Caesar for being what he considers ambitious, and he has spoken to the people of Rome about why he did it. He uses ethos, pathos, and logos to try and persuade the citizens to not punish him for what he has done. He uses ethos by himself being a very honorable and noble person. He was one of Caesar’s closest friends, so he of all people would be the first to find a reason not to kill him. His nobility and honorability showed that he will always do what is best for his country, even if he didn’t want to.

Caesar goes skipping off to the Senate. On the way to the Capitol, an old man tries to give Caesar a letter warning him about the assassination plot, but Caesar blows him off. At the Capitol, Caesar stands around bragging about how awesome he is. Just as he's making a big speech about how he's the brightest star in the sky, Cassius and Brutus, and the other plotters surround him and stab him to death – 33 times, just to be sure. Before falling, Caesar looks up and says "Et tu, Brute?"

The Aureus of Octavian: Temple of Julius Caesar was minted in 36 BCE. The choice of using coinage itself as a way to send messages is a smart and logical choice. Coins were portable and widespread, and with images coins can carry messages, ones that have daily reinforcement with each usage. This particular aureus depicts the bust of Octavian Augustus on one side, and the Temple of Julius Caesar on the other. Zanker “is a good example of the effective use of new visual language by Octavian’s supporters” (Zanker, 1990).

Revolving around the actual events of the Roman king—Julius Caesar, the famous playwright, William Shakespeare wrote The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, which depicts the rise and fall of the short-lived king. Julius Caesar was an arrogant man, however, the common people of Rome had no real issue with him. His tribunes and workers under him, however, feared that he would rule terribly and unfairly. Out of their fear and jealousy, his tribunes and even Caesar’s friend, Brutus, murdered Caesar. While Brutus believed his death was a sacrifice for the betterment of Rome, evidence throughout the play shows that his death was in fact butchery.

Antony successfully manipulates the citizens into joining him against the conspirators. He does this while giving his speech in the funeral oration. There are many different ways he did this but through all of these he used spin. Spin is not telling the truth, but you are also not lying, it is used most of the time in manipulation and in politics. Antony manages to persuade and manipulate the citizens that Caesar was killed wrongfully with the use and power of spin.

The battle goes on and Cassius’ thoughts gets to him thinking that he is going to lose, so he asks his slave, Pindarus, to stab him with the sword that went through Caesar’s back and killed him.

Brutus thinks that he won’t the battle so he asks Clitus to kill him but he refuses then he asks Dardanius, who also refuses, this makes Brutus do the job himself and kills himself with a sword. Antony and Octavius find out about Brutus and decide to honor

Each conspirators stabbed him many times, including Cassius, ultimately making partially him responsible for his death.
