What is the Vicar's speech at a funeral?
The Vicar acts as God's vassal on Earth. Usually the Vicar will take care of the Eulogy (memorial speech) as well as helping to comfort those who are in attendance. The actual speech will usually vary from funeral to funeral as the Vicar sees what words may be the most helpful. Many also consider the Apostolic Blessing to be appropriate when one passes. It says
"Ego facultate mihi ab Apostolic Sede tributa, indulgatiam plenarium et remissionem omnium peccatorum tibi concedo et benedico te. In nomine Patris, et Filli, y et Spiritu Sancti. Amen"
Which translates,
"By the faculty which the Apostolic See has given me, I grant you a plenary indulgence for the remission of all your sins, and bless you. In the name of the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. Amen."
How was Julius Caesar a good fighter in the war he went through?
Julius Caesar was a good fighter in his wars because he was a good strategist and used rapid troop movements as one of his tactics. He was also a man of personal courage and when he saw that his troops were falling back, he would not hesitate to admonish them and personally lead them into battle on foot. This was how he gained the loyalty of most of his troops.

How does Brutus tragic flaw of idealism contribute to his downfall?
Had he given in to Cassius's much more realpolitik suggestions, they would have bumped off Antony at the same time as Caesar and have consolidated their positions in Rome. But if Brutus had been that kind of a guy, Cassius would not have recruited him as an ally in the first place.
If idealism is a "tragic flaw" in Brutus, then isn't it also a "tragic flaw" in Jesus? If he had only co-operated with the Sanhedrin and the Romans he wouldn't have been crucified, right?

What was Aristotle's view of a tragic hero in Julius Caesar?
Aristotle died before the historical Julius Caesar was born, and over a millennium before Shakespeare wrote his play. In fact, in his Poetics, Aristotle was thinking exclusively of the play he had seen: Sophocles's Oedipus Rex. Of course there is no character in Julius Caesar who kills his father and marries his mother, so Aristotle's remarks are rather beside the point.
In short, the notions of the "Aristotelian Unities" or the "tragic hero" were constructed many hundreds of years after Aristotle and were applied to drama from totally different traditions, such as English Elizabethan and Jacobean drama. Most of the writers of Shakespeare's time, including Shakespeare, could not possibly care less about Aristotle.

Yes. Julius Caesar was a patrician or an aristocrat even though his political base was populist.
Was Julius Caesar a harsh and cruel leader?
Based on the histories available on the leadership qualities or any ecesses he may have taken in conquering foreign peoples or leading the government of Rome, it can be argued that he was no less harsh and cruel than other leaders of his time. This takes into consideration foreign rulers and earlier Roman rulers such as Sulla.
One clear fault he did have was at a crucial time of Rome's history, when Caesar had conqured all of his Roman enemies, it is clear now that he was too forgiving in his treatment of Roman senators who were against him. Later, these same senators whom Caesar had "pardoned" when he could have had them executed, turned out to be many of the assassins that took his life.
