Brutus' speech aims to persuade the Roman public that the assassination of Julius Caesar was necessary to prevent tyranny and preserve the Republic. He seeks to justify the act as a defense of freedom and democracy, emphasizing that Caesar's ambition posed a threat to their liberties. Additionally, Brutus aims to appeal to the crowd's sense of rationality and civic duty, encouraging them to see the assassination as a noble sacrifice rather than an act of treachery.
