What was mark Antony trying to do when he offered Caesar the crown three times?

The idea was that Caesar would refuse the Crown, thus demonstrating to the mob that he didn't want the power of a king. And it worked. Of course Caesar did want and actually had all the power of a king, and what he was refusing were the trappings that went along with it. This was ok with him, and made the foolish crowd think that by refusing the trappings, he was also refusing the power.


Why did Casca think Caesar refused the crown 3 times?

The Romans did not say anything about Casca's thoughts. Any thoughts of his come from fiction: from Shakespeare's play. In Shakespeare's play, Casca does not explicitly disclose what he thinks Caesar's motive was for refusing the crown, but his scornful description of the reaction of the crowd when he did so ("the rabblement shouted, and clapped their chopped hands, and threw up their sweaty night-caps, and uttered such a deal of stinking breath because Caesar refused the crown, that it had almost choked Caesar") it would appear that Casca was of the view (surely correct) that the whole process was to amplify Caesar's already popular status with the mob.
