So then everyone knows that Antony have Caesar's permission to touch Calpurnia (Caesar's wife).
Most importantly, in Suetonius's description, Antony speaks "but briefly" and Brutus did not speak at all. Antony did arrange (he was consul and it was his job) to have a song sung with the words "Saved I these men that they might murder me?", and had the heralds read out the oath the Senators had taken (under duress) to protect Caesar's life. Caesar was cremated shortly thereafter according to Suetonius.
Caesar has a very high opinion of Caesar. You might say he was Caesar's biggest fan.
The Romans did not say anything about Casca's thoughts. Any thoughts of his come from fiction: from Shakespeare's play. In Shakespeare's play, Casca does not explicitly disclose what he thinks Caesar's motive was for refusing the crown, but his scornful description of the reaction of the crowd when he did so ("the rabblement shouted, and clapped their chopped hands, and threw up their sweaty night-caps, and uttered such a deal of stinking breath because Caesar refused the crown, that it had almost choked Caesar") it would appear that Casca was of the view (surely correct) that the whole process was to amplify Caesar's already popular status with the mob.
Caesar sees Cassius as a dangerous man. The reason why is because Caesar describes that men like Cassius are never comfortable while someone ranks up higher than them... That and he is skinny (this was discussed between only him and Antony, so you would have to read the play in order to understand it a bit, try Sparknotes)
In the beginning of the play, Brutus is trusted by Caesar, and they have a filial sort of relationship. But Brutus plays a large role in Caesar's assassination. Caesar's dying words are, "Et tu, Brute?" (you too, Brutus?) because he can hardly believe that someone he loved and was close to would murder him. Brutus reasons, "Not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more." He thinks that killing Caesar was for the greater good, and if you've read the play, you would realize that Brutus's fatal flaw is his nobility. He overthinks everything, always searching for the noble, honorable, "right" thing to do. It was also mentioned that perhaps Brutus was truly Caesar's son, of an affair. At Brutus's funeral oration, Antony says Brutus was "Caesar's angel," although it is never blatantly explained why Caesar trusts and loves Brutus so much, then is betrayed. Although Brutus's honor to Caesar is strong in the beginning, it wavers enough for him to take part in Caesar's murder, but then he sees the effects because of it. By the end of the play, Brutus sees that Rome in the hands of Antony, Octavius, etc is worse than it would have been under Caesar's ruling, and Brutus commits suicide. Note that this question does not have anything to do with the question. The question entails the relationship between BRUTUS and CASSIUS, while this answer is telling the relationship between Brutus and Caeser.
Your question may be unclear. However, Caesars wife Calpurnia, was unable to have children. Caesar told Anthony, 'before you go, touch Calpernia, people say that if you touch an infertile woman at festival time she will be freed of infertility'
Cassius tells Brutus that allowing Antony to speak at Caesar's funeral could be dangerous because Antony is a powerful speaker and may turn the crowd against them by reminding them of Caesar's good deeds. Cassius warns that Antony could incite the crowd to rebel against the conspirators.

Mark Antony's primary goal in giving his speech at Caesar's funeral was to sway public opinion against the conspirators who assassinated Julius Caesar. By appealing to the emotions of the crowd and highlighting Caesar's achievements and his love for the people, Antony sought to incite anger and rebellion among the citizens of Rome. Ultimately, he aimed to consolidate power and avenge Caesar's death, positioning himself as a defender of Caesar's legacy and a leader in the ensuing chaos.
Antony refrains from reading Caesar's will to emphasize the emotional impact of Caesar's death and to manipulate the crowd's feelings. He suggests that revealing the will might provoke anger or unrest among the people, which he uses to build suspense and sway public sentiment against the conspirators. By withholding the will, he effectively heightens the crowd's curiosity and sympathy for Caesar, ultimately turning them against those who assassinated him.
Most importantly, in Suetonius's description, Antony speaks "but briefly" and Brutus did not speak at all. Antony did arrange (he was consul and it was his job) to have a song sung with the words "Saved I these men that they might murder me?", and had the heralds read out the oath the Senators had taken (under duress) to protect Caesar's life. Caesar was cremated shortly thereafter according to Suetonius.
Apart from whom? The play certainly centres on Brutus. Antony is an important character also. Either of them might qualify as a hero, depending on your definition.
In his funeral speech for Julius Caesar, Marc Antony would likely use several props to enhance his emotional appeal. Key props might include Caesar's bloodied toga to symbolize his assassination, a wax statue of Caesar to evoke his presence, and perhaps a will or document to reveal Caesar's intentions for the people of Rome. These items would serve to stir the crowd's emotions, emphasizing themes of betrayal and loss while rallying them against the conspirators.
Brutus is against including Cicero and killing Mark Antony because he believes that Cicero will not follow anything that another man has started. He is against killing Mark Antony because he feels it will be to bloody.
Caesar has a very high opinion of Caesar. You might say he was Caesar's biggest fan.
In Shakespeare's play, Casca tells Brutus that Antony offered Caesar a crown (a coronet) because the people clamored that Caesar should be king. He says that Caesar refused it three times, each time less vigorously. Caesar, although desiring absolute power, spurns the classic role of "king" which the populace might see as a dominating or oppressive force, and cultivates a role as "friend of the people" in contrast to the aristocratic Senate.
On the one hand Brutus might be considered as ignoble; early in the play he shows what might be considered as lacking ruthlessness. "I am not gamesome I do lack some part of that quick spirit." That word "gamesome" suggest that he is not a risk-taker that he is not frivolous. The word "quick sprit" implies that he lacks that ability to think on his feet unlike Antony. "Vexed I am of late with passions of some difference." This illustrates that fact that at this point in the play we see the result of Cassius's manipulation. Cassius is injecting conflicting thoughts into Brutus's head. Unlike Antony Brutus is shown to be affected by other people interference; "Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, That you would have me seek into myself For that which is not in me" These words evidence his dilemma because he droughts his own capacity for murder. Some might say that Brutus is not noble because of the fact that he kills Caesar. Caesar was a close confidante and plotted against him and killed him. "For Brutus was Caesar angle" the use of the word angle implies that Brutus was elevated to the highest level of esteem. What Antony uses the techniques of bathos to win over the crowd and audience. "This was the most unkindest cut of all" by using the word "unkindest" he magnifies the horror of Brutus's deed wounding him(if you'll pardon the pun) more than just saying that he mindlessly killed Caesar. On the other hand Brutus may be seen, from the point of view of certain people, as very noble. Although he has killed Caesar there are many counter points to argue against his ignobility of his actions. Brutus truly loves Rome and feels that what he is doing is for the greater good of Rome. In killing Caesar, even if it wasn't the right thing to do, Brutus still sincerely believes that what he is doing will be for the better good of Rome he says himself "Brutus would rather be a villager than the repute himself as a son of Rome" this quotation illustrates Brutus's extreme patriotism. Brutus is skeptical when Cassius first suggests the murder of Caesar "into what dangers would you lead me Cassius…?". After this Brutus deprived of sleep because he is so troubled by what Cassius has said. His wife Portia has noticed this and says "Is Brutus sick?". The fact the Brutus is losing sleep shows that he is intensely worried about the prospect of killing Caesar. There is seriously convict in his head. he wants to do what is right for the good of Rome but Caesar is his friend. Brutus said in the play, "I know no personal cause to spurn at him , But for the general." Brutus has nothing against Caesar, but he fears that Caesar my become a tyrant. He has to have good reason to betray his friend, and he decided that Caesar was becoming too ambitious. Brutus was motivated to make the decision he did by his love for Rome, and this is a very noble decision. He was very patriotic to his country and did what he thought was best for all Romans.
