(Apex) That Caesar didn't deserve to be murdered.
Antony's Speech
Marc Antony reads Julius Caesar's will to the crowd during his speech. He claims that Caesar had left money and property to the citizens of Rome, appealing to their emotions and turning them against the conspirators.
Brutus's purpose was to control the crowd as was Anthony's. Brutus began his speech with a hostile crowd against him as a murderer of the popular Julius Caesar.
Because he had the same name as one of the conspirators
An example of a philippic is Mark Antony's speech in William Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" where he criticizes the conspirators for killing Caesar and rouses the crowd against them.
The irony of Mark Antony's funeral speech lies in his repeated assertion that he is not trying to incite the crowd against the conspirators who killed Julius Caesar, while simultaneously doing exactly that. He uses the phrase "Brutus is an honorable man" to undermine Brutus's credibility, all while appealing to the crowd's emotions with his genuine grief over Caesar's death. This manipulation of rhetoric ultimately sways the public against Brutus and the conspirators, showcasing the power of persuasive language despite his claims of neutrality.
Mark Antony delivers a persuasive speech at Caesar's funeral in Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar." He skillfully uses rhetoric to sway the crowd, turning public opinion against the conspirators who assassinated Caesar. By repeatedly referring to Caesar's accomplishments and displaying his will, Antony evokes pity and anger, ultimately inciting the crowd to riot against the conspirators.
In William Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar," Marc Antony's speech makes the crowd feel that Caesar was a great leader. Through his masterful use of rhetoric, Antony highlights Caesar's accomplishments, his refusal of the crown, and his concern for the people of Rome. By repeatedly referring to Caesar as "ambitious" while providing evidence of his generosity, Antony stirs the crowd's emotions and ultimately sways them to see Caesar in a heroic light. This shift in perception rallies the crowd against the conspirators who assassinated him.
He told them that Caesar was dead.
After Brutus' speech in Act 3, Scene 2 of Julius Caesar, the crowd feels swayed and supportive of him, perceiving him as a noble and honorable man. They are initially convinced by his rationale for assassinating Caesar, believing it was for the greater good of Rome. The crowd shouts praises and expresses admiration for Brutus, demonstrating their loyalty and trust in his judgment. However, this sentiment quickly shifts when Mark Antony speaks, ultimately leading to chaos and a change in allegiance.
Brutus is not in hamlet, hes in Julius Caesar..... he asks the crowd to trust him and believe he had good reason for killing Caesar and be on his side and believe that it was for the better of the people.
That caesar didnt deserve to be murdered
