Similarities Between Kennedy And Julius Caesar's Assassination

The assassination of Alexander Litvinenko was just because of his false claims. He put himself in a dangerous place. Alexander should not have been falsely accusing the Russian President. He may have known information others did not know, but he did not show it was true. People may think he was a loyal officer, but just because some other officers made poor decisions, it does not mean they were unloyal.

Comparing Caesar and King There are many times that you will see a difference in opinion and find people voicing their opinions differently. On the other hand, you will see people coming together for a cause and making a change similarly and that is what we are going to focus on.

This paper aims to make an insightful comparison of two great leaders of history whom were assassinated by conspirators during the height of their political lives. By exploring the assassination and lives of these two men we can more clearly understand the historical and social events that underpin a conspiracy as grand as these. The life and death of Julius Caesar is one of the original grand conspiracies in history, as his ambition grew so did the envy of his fellow senators. Julius Caesar was born to a noble family and inherited a relatively high status in ancient Rome’s hierarchy.

““Et tu, Brute?”” were the last words Julius Caesar said before he was stabbed by his closest friend Marcus Junius Brutus (Julius Caesar 3.1.77). This story took place many years ago but there are still incidents like this today in movie form. Also, an example of this would be The lion King how Mufasa and scar are brothers and always watch out for each other and then they turn and become worst enemies. There are multiple similarities and difference which we will talk about later in the paper. Finally, this could of went either way were anyone could of killed anyone in the story.

Caesar put the business of Rome for the people in front of personal matters. Caesar was killed when he prioritized Rome over personal business. The reasons for their deaths

Brutus tried to persuade Antony that Caesar wanted to be king. Antony proved him wrong by bringing up Caesar rejecting the crown three times. Caesar’s intentions was not to be king or he would have already been king. Another reason they wanted to stab him was because they thought he was too ill. Even though he was ill he was still doing a good job as the general of Rome.

The throne of Rome and the crowning of king was not far within the eye sight of the ambitious Julius Caesar. It was this point that the numerous authors have accounted for the dictator’s assassination. These writers claim that the fear of monarchy, jealousy within the senate, and a threat to the Roman republic government led to the assassination of Julius Caesar. Rome, a strong and conquering nation had much of their support in a republic form of government to keep them from a king. For this empire, a monarchy was not a popular idea.

His popularity came from returning to Rome with multiple military victories, and news of the previous ruler’s death. After such achievement, Caesar said that he would be a dictator until his death. Since this new ruler would take power from the Senate, a few of the members agreed that an assassination was the best solution to this power struggle (“The Assassination of Julius Caesar, 44 BC”). Another reason Caesar so quickly gained power, and why people hated him is from the belief that he was responsible for Pompey’s death, the previous beloved ruler( "What Were the Motives

Julius Caesar and Abraham Lincoln are undeniably two men who made history through their leaderships on their respective nations. When comparing the two, one key aspect of how they made history comes to mind is their assassination’s. Comparing the assassination of an American president to that of Julius Caesar reveals some similarities. Ultimately, the major components of comparing the two is through the similarity between the two assassinations. In this case, they were carried out by people who disagreed with Lincoln and Caesar’s authority and power, and how they used this power and authority.

Julius Caesar’s assassination turned out a bad thing for the Roman Republic because it caused civil war, changed the perception of him, he conquered many land, and the people favored him. After Caesar’s death, another Triumvirate tried to get back at those who killed Caesar by starting a civil war which led to many deaths and suicides. This shows how if Caesar was not killed, many peoples lives would be saved and that killing Caesar created a domino effect on the death count. His works, while living, showed themselves as not all great. But because of his assassination, it made him seem like a martyr which changed the overall perception of him from a horrible leader to the good guy.

People’s choices decide if history will view them as a martyr or a murder. Both Caesar and Abraham Lincoln are considered martyrs by history. As Lincoln had just won the Civil War and Caesar had just defeated Pompey, they were well liked at the time. But almost immediately after these events Brutus and J.W Booth subsequently killed them due to their belief that they were doing what was right for the nation and because they felt pressure from their past, therefore while some differences between Brutus and Booth are evident, the similarities are prominent.

After reading excerpts from Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, write an essay that compares Brutus’ speech with Marc Antony’s speech and argues the effectiveness of the rhetorical devices (ethos, pathos, logos) used in each. Be sure to support your position with evidence from the texts. William Shakespeare writes a play about Julius Caesar’s assassination and the speeches his friends gave at his funeral. In the play, Brutus assassinated Caesar because he thought he was protecting Rome. He was saying that if Caesar got all the power he would most likely become vicious and make everyone his slaves.

Since Caesar had defeated Pompey, a military and political leader during the Roman Republic, in battle and was a roman general at the time, Caesar went on to conquer and take control of Gaul ( modern day France) and allied himself with Cleopatra in Egypt by marrying her. Caesar was expecting to become dictator for life because of his accomplishments without the Senate voting on him. This shows that Caesar wanted anything that would better him in life and brings us to the next topic about how Caesar didn’t think about others first. This shows that Caesar wanted anything that would better him in life.

In public, Caesar was the leader Rome had always wished for, a strong, valliant man that would let nothing in his way. Consequently, Caesar had a more vulnerable side to him where the reader would be able to see glimpses of throughout the play. Still, Caesar allowed his public self image to take priority in which would eventually lead to his death. Speaking historically, the great Julius Caesar was a people’s leader with a deep hunger for power in which he would do anything to
