Persuasive Letter To Brutus

It is astonishing how one man can take away another’s life so quickly and easily. It is alarming how one could argue that the murder of Julius Caesar was a group effort, when there is only one man who is behind this horrific feat of hatred. It is amazing how anyone could think that the killing of our powerful leader-to-be could be justified by any reasoning. Ladies and gentlemen, we are standing in the very same room as the murderer of the great Julius Caesar. May I direct your attention to the man guilty of this crime, Marcus Brutus.

Come winter I shall be comfortably ensconced in my lavish seaside villa, harvesting my memoirs, tilling my garden, writing my poetry.” “A well-deserved retirement, I should think,” the Chamberlain commented. “An auspicious end to an auspicious career.” “Aye, Caesar. You’ll be sorely missed in the Imperial Court.”

Means girls and Julius Caesar hit the mark of being very similar. They both show jealousy, hatred,and backstabbing. The theme that both movie and story is portraying is jealously. Cassius jealously of caesar had led Caesar's death. Cassius ask Brutus to help kill Caesar and had persuade him to believe that Caesar is power was getting out of hand and was going to become a dictator and take over full rome.

“If you have tears, prepare to shed them now. You all do know this mantle. I remember The first time ever Caesar put it on. ’ Twas on a summer’s evening in his tent. That day he overcame the Nervii.

My fellow Romans, As of two days ago, 14 Februarius, I have been given the honor to lead and guide this astonishing republic toward triumph and prosperity. Due to my unyielding and solid past around the Mediterranean, I will make Rome great again with some of the most splendid and superb reforms this glorious land has ever received. My first and foremost action that I plan to take is reconstructing how we treat our soldiers and past soldiers. They are not nearly paid as much as they deserve to be and their service, unfortunately, is more than forgotten after they have served our republic.

This should not have happened to Julius Caesar after all he did for Rome and its

When Brutus was talking to the conspirators Brutus was going back and forth think if he should help the conspirators kill Julius Caesar. He was going back and forth because he was thinking of the power he could have and could rule Rome. The reason behind Brutus killing Caesar was for the better of Rome. If Brutus would not have killed Caesar, Rome would have turned into a dictatorship, and in turn it would have ruined Rome and all of its people. Brutus did not kill Julius just for the power to rule Rome, he killed Julius to save Rome from Caesar’s dictatorship.

Brutus believes that Caesar will do more harm than good to the people, and reap benefits for himself. Brutus has already said this, but had said it in his own words, (II, i, 12-14). He has no clue if Caesar will use his power for the good and betterment for the people, or use it for his own needs and other

Honor in the world gives people a reason to fight for the things that they believe in. Throughout The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus has had to make many tough decisions that display the great honor within him. In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare's, it is made very obvious that Brutus is an honorable man. Brutus preserves his honor by taking care of Rome’s issues with good intentions and without going too far.

At this point, Caesar revealed himself and said: “’Go on, my good man. Be bold, and fear nothing. It is Caesar you are carrying, and Caesar’s Fortune sails with us’” (Plutarch 106.5). This revelation and bold statement was enough to strike courage in the men.

(II, i, 53-55) which allows to say that he wants Rome to be just and do whatever it takes to maintain it away from any threat. Indeed, Brutus states this very clearly when he says, “If it’s for the good of all Romans, I’d do it even if it meant my death. Let the gods give me good luck only as long as I love honor more than I fear death.” (I, ii, 86-88), he explicitly says that the good of the majority is over any feeling or personal benefit which in this case is the love of Caesar for him and viceversa, and the throne. To conclude, Brutus is a complex character that is characterized by three recurrent traits: his well-intention, his hypocrisy, and his naivet.

Had you rather Caesar were living and die all slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free

As Caesar loved me, I weep for him; // as he was fortunate, I rejoice at it; // as he was valiant, I honour him: // but, as he was ambitious, I slew him” (JC, 3.2.20-30), leaves the mob more disturbed and bitter than ever before they succumb to Antony’s appeal to emotion as he continues to exploit their self-love. Brutus’s naïve belief that he has successfully justified his actions in the eyes of the Romans with such a short speech lacking any self-love is a sign of his naivety – a form of foolishness that lacks folly. On the other hand, Antony’s long speech is brave and fearless – a sign of a fool who embodies folly. According to Folly, “I [folly] is also the champion of prudence” (Folly, 27) as prudence is derived from experience, and men who lack

Publicly, Julius Caesar is invincible and tries to portray himself as a great leader who is able to do all things in greatness and nobility for Rome. Caesar is always careful to present himself as steadfast even in front of his close friends but even more so to the public. For example, when Caesar wanders through the streets, his presence commands respect, and he offers the best version of himself. His “I am the greatest star” speech shows that he puts in effort that’ll make him look superior to others, “ But I am constant as the northern star, Of whose true-fixed and resting quality, There is no fellow in the firmament.

Marcus Junius Brutus and Mark Antony both deliver speeches to justify the death of Julius Caesar in 44 BCE and both use Logos and Ethos to convince the Roman citizens to join their sides. Both sides deliver their speeches with vehemence and start by elucidating why Brutus killed Caesar to begin with, why Antony’s desire for revenge is justified, and what the future of Rome will be because of his death. Antony teases the citizens of Rome with the will of Caesar that he holds in hand and claims it will dishonor Brutus and the other conspirators and is also one of his vital uses of Ethos in his speech. Most of the citizens, if not all of them side with Antony and will most likely help him accede to a great title of power in the future and also betray Brutus because of what Antony has them believe, i.e. an ignoble assassin. Brutus and Antony 's speeches were both compelling, although Antony´s speech was more successful, but it is because he was able to manipulate the people of Rome with
