Antony's touch can make Calphurnia fertile.
They were at the Lupercalia, a fertility festival, and Calpurnia was barren.
The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a play written by William Shakespeare. Julius Caesar's three closest friends were Brutus, Antony, and Cassius.
Brutus was Caesar's protégé before Antony came along and a close friend. Caesar appears to feel that if even his close friends have turned against him, what is the point of resisting. Hence "And you too, Brutus?"
As Marcus Brutus said, "It's not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more." They were close friends.
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.
Cassius hoped that Brutus, who was a man of impeccable integrity and who was close to Caesar, would lend legitimacy to their movement.
Julius Caesar had many close friends and it is difficult to say which one was the closest. Marc Antony comes to mind in this circumstance, but Antony, although holding the consulship with Caesar at the time of the assassination, was more interested in being Caesar's heir than in ruling.Julius Caesar had many close friends and it is difficult to say which one was the closest.

Brutus allows Antony to speak at Caesar's funeral to show that they have nothing to hide and to demonstrate their commitment to fairness and democracy. It was also part of their strategy to win the public's support by giving Antony a chance to address the crowd.
Caesar tells Calpurnia to stand close to the racers in the Lupercal festival because it was believed that being touched by the runners' clothes could make women more fertile. Caesar and Calpurnia were childless at the time, so he wanted to increase their chances of having a child.
When Mark Antony got to know that the conspirators killed Caesar, he was enraged because he was very close to Caesar. But there were other reasons for him wanting revenge besides Caesar's death. Cicero, a sympathizer with the conspirators, attacked him viciously and Cicero was also responsible for the death of Antony's stepfather.
The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a play written by William Shakespeare. Julius Caesar's three closest friends were Brutus, Antony, and Cassius.
In 'The Tragedy of Julius Caesar,' Antony, Octavious and Lepidus are in a room planning their next actions. They have a list of men, including some close relatives, who they are nonchalantly planning to kill for their part in the conspiracy. They also talk about opening Caesar's will to see what they get out of it. When Lepidus leaves, Antony starts to backstab him.
As Marc Antony was well known as a friend and ally of Julius Caesar, the first thing Antony did when he learned of Caesar's assassination, was to fortify himself in his home. He did this fearing for his own life, based upon his close association with the fallen dictator. In fact the leading conspirator, Brutus had entertained killing Antony but decided not to do so. There is no definitive reason in historical documents that indicates why Antony was spared. Antony next obtained all the papers and funds Caesar had left in his palace. At the same time he summoned all of Caesar's loyal military veterans to Rome. Based on his authority as Tribune, Antony by March 27 convened the Senate and accepted Cicero's proposal for a general amnesty for anyone involved in Caesar's death. Antony also agreed that 2 of the main conspirators, Brutus and Cassius be given provincial governorships on the condition that the Senate ratify all of Caesar's outstanding decrees & appointments. These acts were a clever deception to appear not to seek revenge against the conspirators.
Brutus was Caesar's protégé before Antony came along and a close friend. Caesar appears to feel that if even his close friends have turned against him, what is the point of resisting. Hence "And you too, Brutus?"
Cicero never wanted to give Marc Antony anything least of all power. They were bitter enemies. Cicero executed Antony's stepfather without a trial and later gave a series of scathing speeches against Antony called the Philippics. Also, it was well known that Antony was a close ally of Caesar. When Caesar was assassinated in the Senate, by luck, Brutus did not include Antony on the Senate's death list. That was why Antony insisted that Cicero be included in the proscriptions that the triumvirate ordered and had his head and his hands nailed to the rostra in the forum.
Antony is mentally and emotionally shaken by Caesar's murder by the conspirators because he is very close to him. He can't leave without Caesar. He find it the best place and time to die with Caesar. So he offers himself to be killed by the conspirators at that place and time. He sees that it is useless to remain alive after his death as he is very near to him. So he says so as it would attain glory to be dead by Caesar's side.
Casca was the first of many to stab Caesar. He also said, "Speak hands for me!" It was the last thing said before Caesar's murder. Trebonius is the one who lures Mark Antony away before they murder Caesar. Mettelus Cimber made a fake appeal to Caesar to let his banished brother into the city again. He did this to allow Caesar's murderers to close in without Caesar becoming worried.
