Brutus appeals to reason, Antony to emotion.
Marcus Brutus makes his speech very formally to reason the mob for killing Caesar. He tells them that Caesar too ambitious and would eventually become a much powerful ruler and would make the Romans his slave. Brutus appeals to the people's minds and leaves an impression that Caesar would have become a tyrant. What Brutus terms as his reason is a hypothetical situation and is not reason enough for killing Caesar. He does not provide any evidence to his statement that Caesar was ambitious.Where as Mark Antony uses flawless logic and genuine emotional appeal in his masterful oratory. first of all, Antony enters dramatically to the pulpit with Caesar's body to win the sympathy of the mob. He began his speech by addressing the mob as "friends". Antony really wants to avenge Caesar and tries to convince the crowd into believing the truth that they killed Caesar out of envy. Antony appeals to people's heart.Hence, he is successful making the mob rise against the conspirators in 'mutiny' and 'rage'. Also, Antony provides evidences of Caesar's humanity and attachment to people by showing them that Caesar had made the people his inheritors of his wealth, gardens. Also Antony tells the crowd that Caesar had always sympathized with them.This has a greater effect on the people and Antony's periodical emotional outburst only contributes to Antony's impulsive and improvisatory nature serves him perfectly. Antony is gifted with the power of oratory that helped him to stir the common man. Antony proves himself everywhere Brutus was weak. With caution and gradual persuation, he proves that he is a consummate politician using gestures and skilled rhetoric to his advantage.Unlike Brutus, who prides himself on acting solely with respect to virtue and blinding himself to his personal concerns , Antony never separates his private affairs from his public actions. Antony directly appeals to the hearts of the roman people. His speech is deeply emotional as he believes that people will not listen to reason. Antony humbles himself as "no orator as Brutus is" hinting that Brutus used trickery in his speech to deceive the crowd.Thus Antony succeed to inflame the Roman mob to rise in rebellion and seek revenge on the conspirators. The mob finds it easier to accept Antony, an emotional and sincere speaker than Brutus who appears arrogant and forceful.Marcus Brutus makes his speech very formally to reason with the the mob for killing Caesar.

Their lovers died, and they all committed suicide over it. Romeo and Antony committed suicide because they falsely believed that their lovers had died; Othello committed suicide when he realized he had murdered his lover for no good reason.
It depends on who you talk to. Generally the ten plays Hamlet, Macbeth, King Lear, Othello, Romeo and Juliet, Julius Caesar, Antony and Cleopatra, Coriolanus, Titus Andronicus, and Timon of Athens are considered tragedies. But Cymbeline has also been lumped in with the tragedies for some reason. Troilus and Cressida has also been considered as a tragedy with more reason. And some people have classified Romeo and Juliet as a tragicomedy.

Octavian did not take over the second triumvirate. However he did take advantage of his opportunities and usurped Lepidus, thereby gaining two thirds of the territory and authority. Antony was still a triumvir and had the authority in the east. Octavian did not have supreme power until he won the civil war with Antony. The underlying reason for Octavian's victory was his quest for power.Octavian did not take over the second triumvirate.

After Julius Caesar the senate was technically in control of Rome. However in reality it was a contest between Octavian and Antony which culminated in the forming of the second triumvirate. Just an added note, Lepidus comes into the picture here too, as he was Caesar's Master of the Horse and was/would be in charge of the city of Rome while the dictator was away. That was the reason for including him in the second triumvirate.After Julius Caesar the senate was technically in control of Rome.

One reason Brutus allows Antony to speak at Caesar's funeral is to show the people of Rome that they have nothing to fear and to gain their trust. Another reason may be to uphold the appearance of honorable behavior and to maintain that the conspirators acted out of love for Rome. It also gives Brutus and the conspirators the opportunity to present their side of the story and justify their actions.
Brutus appeals to reason, Antony to emotion.
The reason Antony does this is to make the citizens/ the poor to go and against Cassius, Brutus, and the conspirators. :D
Your reason of choosing something
The reason mark Antony shakes the conspirators hands is because it's showing the death bond they have just made.
