The conspirators ask Caesar to free Publius Cimber because they all knew Caesar would say no, causing an argument thus leading them to surround Caesar and kill him. It was a way to get close to him.

Did Julius Caesar free slaves?

No actually Abraham Lincoln did. Julius Caesar didn't free slaves. If you check in the Harcourt 5th grade edition, look in the index and look for Civil War. Then when you find that look at the page number and go to those pages. When you get to the first page of the Civil War section read it until the end and see that Abe Lincoln freed the slaves.Here's a little expansion on the above answer. Although everything in the answer is correct, it's in the wrong time period. Our category is Roman history, not American history. Yes, Julius Caesar, like all Romans, did free slaves. Remember, there was a great difference between ancient slavery and American slavery.In fact in the Rome of Julius Caesar's day, slavery was not only common, but was the backbone of the economy. Everyone had slaves, including Caesar. Caesar may have freed some of his slaves in his will, as such a practice was very common (so much so that Caesar's nephew and heir, Augustus, restricted the practice), but he certainly did not take any steps to abolish slavery in the Roman Empire, which would have been a social catastrophe.


What themes are discussed in the play of Julius Caesar?

Fate vs. Free will Caesar brings up questions about this but Cassius tells Brutus that people can control their own fates. Public self vs. Private self The conspirators neglect private feelings and focus on politics. Examples of this would be the moments between Brutus and Portia as well as Caesar and Calpurnia. Misinterpretations Cassius manipulates Brutus into joining the conspirators by forging letters from Romans. Pindarus tells Cassius that Titinius has been captured, when he was being congratulated by Brutus's men, this causes Cassius to take his life. Inflexible vs. Power Brutus and Caesar are quite stubborn. Antony seems to be the most flexible. Rhetoric and Power Antony convinces the conspirators that he means them no harm and turns the plebeians against Brutus.

In Julius Caesar which character establishes the notion that Caesar is ambitious and that Caesar is too high and is a danger to free men?

Cassius did In their long conversation which forms the bulk of Act I Scene 2 Cassius attempts to convince Brutus that Caesar is a threat to the traditional values of the Roman Republic. Cassius' main argument is simply that Caesar is an ordinary man: I had as lief not be as live to be In awe of such a thing as I myself. Cassius tells Brutus that Caesar sweats when he is ill, and that he does not swim as strongly as a younger man:- but the common people of Rome love him (and this is somehow dangerous): And this man Is now become a God, and Cassius is A wretched creature. None of the conspirators in the play have any substantial objection to Caesar, and Cassius is simply eaten up with envy. Caesar knows this, he says: Yond' Cassius has a lean and hungry look; He thinks too much, such men are dangerous. But Caesar is too proud to act on his suspicions. This is his weakness.


Who gave their reasons for why Caesar was killed?

Cassius was the driving force behind the whole group. He was afraid of Caesar gaining too much power and weakening his own political and economic position. Basically, he was greedy, and wanted to keep or increase his own power and wealth. Unfortunately, Brutus was secondary and crucial to the conspiracy. Being such a close friend to Caesar, and then agreeing to the ultimate betrayal of his murder, he gave credence to the others to follow suit. His motive was to protect Rome from being destroyed by the "tyrannical ruler" Caesar was becoming, as projected by Cassius into Brutus' mind/thinking.


When he is left alone with the body of Caesar what does Antony call Brutus and others and why?

Mark Antony was not left alone with the body of Caesar. He fled Rome dressed as a slave because he was afraid that the conspirators would also target Caesar's supporters as well. He returned to Rome when he saw that this did not happen. He incited the crowd to turn against the assassins at Caesar's funeral. Julius Caesar's body remained on the floor of the Theatre of Pompey unattended for nearly three hours before officials arrived to remove it. Most of the assassins fled after their deed. Brutus and his friends went to the Capitoline Hill to shout "Rome is free." People's first reaction was to hide in their homes because they were afraid that more trouble was to follow.
