i think that Marc Antony is the hero of the the play the tragedy of Julius Caesar because he revealed the unknown to the people concerning the assassination of Julius Caesar ,he made people know that the conspirators so called the honorable were those behind the honor killing of Julius Caesar and he made the people revenge the death of Julius Caesar and with the aid of his nephew octavius
from Brutus and Cassius after the escaped from the people. therefore Marc Antony is the hero of the play the tragedy of Julius Caesar.
Brutus is the tragic hero, I believe, because he loved Rome more than his family and friends. He joined the conspirators to kill Caesar because he thought that Caesar would have a negative impact on Rome and as a faithful Roman citizen he couldn't stand by and let that happen. He wanted only the best for Rome and in his eyes killing Julius Caesar was the only way to save Rome from corruption.
Despite the fact that the play is named after Julius Caesar, the real tragic hero of the story is Marcus Brutus.
It is difficult to answer this one, because the play is not clearly structured in this way. However, the character closest to a protagonist must be Brutus. Antony is his antagonist.
The play seems to centre around the character of Brutus. However, others believe that Antony is a plum part because he gets all the good speeches.
The early acts focus on the plot to assassinate Caesar. The last acts show the consequences the assassination has on the characters and their society.
If the definition of a tragic hero is a character with a lot of lines who ends up dead at the end of the play, Brutus fits the bill. So for that matter does Cassius. It was not important for Shakespeare to have a tragic hero in every tragedy--that concept arose long after he stopped writing.

I would think so... Julius Caesar lived a very tragic life. And most of Shakespeare`s plays have deaths in it :)
It is nonfiction. The play was based on events that actually occurred. It portrayed Julius Caesar's life and his untimely, tragic death at the hands of his supposed friends.
Brutus is the tragic hero in Julius Caesar. He believed that he was acting in the best interest of Rome when he participated in the assassination of Julius Caesar, he did not want power for himself.

as a hero
In the play Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare, Brutus is displayed as a tragic hero. All tragic heroes are brought down by their own hubris and it is no different for Brutus in this play. Brutus, did of course, betray and murder his closest friend Julius Caesar, but he did so for what he believed to be noble purposes. Brutus did not kill, or more correctly participate in Caesar's murder, out of malice, he loved Caesar but loved the republic of Rome more. His actions were in the defense of the Republic of Rome and because Marcus Brutus was loved by the people of Rome, the murder of Caesar was more readily accepted by the people. Brutus' hubris was not that he killed Caesar but that he misjudged the characters of those around him. Brutus was an idealist and believed as much in the goodness of people as he did the Republic of Rome. He missed judged Cassius motives in the beginning of the play and later misjudged Marc Antony. Brutus own air of superiority is in the end what brought him down, but he is not a villain but rather a tragic hero.
he was a hero because he led the army to great success
lets say both.
