Caesar Persuasive Speech

Julius Caesar (100-44 BC) was one of the most outstanding leaders in history. He was the first ruler of the Romano-Hellenic civilization and achieved his goals with great success throughout his life of 56 years. He was assassinated by the conspirators, who accused him for practicing tyranny. This essay will discuss whether it was right for the conspirators to murder Caesar and what its consequences were.

As Julius Caesar once said, “Men are nearly always willing to believe what they wish.” Many people believed that if Caesar became a ruler, he would be a brutal dictator. The conspiracy did not have concrete reasons to murder Julius Caesar. They just assumed that he would be a tyrant. Considering that Caesar and Brutus were such close friends, Brutus should have attempted to talk to Caesar instead of agreeing to murder him. Also, Brutus claims to be such an honorable man, but killing someone isn’t a very honorable deed, regardless of the circumstances.

I thought you might be in the area for Andrew's festival. I'll be in Columbus on Sunday the 28th.

I am sure that everyone of you have heard about aliens and UFOs. Indeed, we all have heard about the famous case of aliens and UFOs in Roswell, New Mexico. Most people might be interested in the topic of aliens, but I know that the majority of you just think of it as rumours and the existence of them are impossible. Therefore, I am standing here in front all of you to make you change your perspective. I am strongly confident that I have found the evidence of their real existence to convince all of you.

I am Ms. Simpson and my child Ta’Quarius is in your classroom and I am emailing you to inform you that he’s allergic to peanuts, he cannot have anything with or made with peanuts. I have spoken with the school nurse and the administrators about this. So, I am reaching out to you because as a teacher myself, I know and understand that children do share things, I am hoping that his classmates will understand how important it is for them not to share any foods with him unless they bring it to your attention first before doing so. Ta’Quarius is not to have any type of foods that contains peanuts.

The persuasion analyzed in Cicero’s oration can be seen across many contemporary artifacts, but Blackfish is an artifact where persuasion is working at its best. Blackfish is a documentary that was released in 2013 by Gabriela Cowperthwaite. This documentary tells the story of killer whales in captivity, with a large portion of the story surrounding Tilikum. Tilikum is an orca who has severely hurt or killed several trainers while in captivity. The documentary’s website states that the film aims to, “challenge us to consider our relationship to nature and reveals how little we humans have learned from these highly intelligent and enormously sentient fellow animals”. Blackfish works to expose the multi billion-dollar sea park industry by hitting at people’s emotions to persuade. With a mix of interviews and archived footage, Blackfish is able to unveil the truth behind these sea parks and how it is morally wrong to keep these beloved sea creatures in captivity.

Due to the writing and works of William Shakespeare, the death of Julius Caesar became the most famous assassination in history. The death of Julius Caesar is placed in full context of Rome’s civil wars by eminent historian Barry Strauss. Moreover, the assassination itself was a complexly layered plan that was a direct result of Caesar’s power and leadership choices leading up to the fateful day. These key events leading up to the Ides of March—and the aftermath that followed—are important to understanding the immense effect Caesar 's death had on Rome, and on its subsequent demise. In the height of Rome, Caesar formed a political alliance with Pompey that dominated Roman politics. Furthermore, Caesar’s victories in the Gallic War and

After the recent and brutal murder of Julius Caesar, Antony address the people of Rome. He explains to them how Brutus is unloyal to Caesar and deserves to be punished. Antony proves his loyalty to Caesar and Rome by giving this speech, however, he wants to remember and remorse the death of Caesar. Antony’s speech is very successful, the people are mad at Brutus and want to avenge Caesar's death. In Antony’s speech following the death of Julius Caesar, he speaks of the betrayal of Brutus and attempts to make the plebeians attack the conspirators.

A lot of people said that Alexander was an annoying, silly, rude, mean, hard hitting, loud, outgoing, greedy, selfish, mingy, miserly, parsimonious, penurious, rapacious, skimpy, stingy, vain, aggravating, bothersome, disturbing, irritating, troublesome, vexatious... Ok let's just say their are a lot of haters towards Alexander. He did conquer many peoples ancestors and that can be a touchy space. This story I am about to tell you is about Alexander and his biggest enemy Darius III why is this so? Alexander believed that if the world was under only one ruler every thing would be easier. Obviously kings and queens would not just give their kingdoms up to a 20 year old who some thought was unstable due to depression and grieving over his father's

This past week Brutus, Cassius, Casca and several other men murdered Rome’s dearest friend, Julius Caesar. Fear these men, as they will stop at nothing on their conquest for power as to kill a kind, merciful man such as Caesar. Watch out for these men, as they will slither silently, stalking their prey and stab swiftly for a higher seat in Rome. For those new to our great republic, Caesar was accused for trying to become a king and destroying the purpose of the republic, but that is far from the opposite. When offered a crown by his companion, Marc Antony, Caesar refused not once, not twice, but three times just to please us. These vile beasts, in return, stabbed him twenty-three times, each of which were close friends and were given his trust, for he believed in the good of people. Then there is Caesar’s will, in which he donated so much to us from the bottom of his heart. Some Romans may say that Caesar deserved what he got but for me and my fellow true Romans we know other wise. We must come together and give these murders the

The Tragedy of Julius Caesar is a controversial play written by Shakespeare in 1599 which depicts the conflicts in the time of Caesar. The play is centered on the growing problem of Caesar becoming too powerful for Rome. The young Senator, Brutus, has to make the difficult decision to either oppose Caesar or to trust him and his vision for Rome. Ultimately, Brutus is persuaded by the Senator Cassius and together they gather a group of Senators with the plan to assassinate Caesar. After the murder, Brutus calls upon Antony, and tells him he may only speak at Caesar's funeral if he speaks positively of the conspirators. Antony falsely agrees. After Brutus gives his speech to the people of Rome, everyone in the crowd believes that Caesar was

I am nervous and cannot sleep. All I can think about is whether I should take action against Caesar and help my countrymen or should I not join and go to the grave dishonorable and like Cassius says I will. Caesar does have some flaws as Cassius mentioned that lead me to question whether he is fit to lead Rome. Especially him turning down the crown three times. It makes him seem that he is reluctant to lead Rome. It also seems Cassius is hungry for power and only wants Caesar assassinated because he was on Pompey’s side and Caesar beat him. Cassius shows up to my house with the conspirators in hats and cloaks hard to recognize them. We decide to kill Caesar but I am hesitant still about joining the conspiracy. After they leave Portia is so

“Great Caesar, My lord, you must not attend the meeting at the senate today. I have heard a great conspiracy among the senators to take your very life. While I do not know the names of those involved I know there are many. If you go to the senate today as planned you will surely be murdered. There are men in the senate who are jealous of your power my lord and will do anything to stop you from taking your rightful place as ruler. Please, do not

I grew up in a quaint yet homely apartment that had paint chipping off its walls and a musty, mold smell that permeated the air in a downtown Brooklyn neighbourhood where the stench of sewage was a daily occurrence and it was unremarkable to witness two asian grandmas up at each other’s throats. I wasn’t raised in the happiest and privileged place in the world yet I didn’t let my adversities throw me down to the ground. I appreciate that Columbia is like a plane. It contains people of all walks in life and educational backgrounds, but what matters most is not where we from, it is that we are all reaching the same destination, the destination where we all become open minded, educated adults.

Today I am going to inform you that I am going to assassinate Julius Caesar. First of all, he won the elections in amiss ways. Likewise, he did many things that discredited us, Senators! Furthermore, he had a great deal of power. These are a few reasons why I am going to execute Julius Caesar.
