Comparing Julius Caesar And Abraham Lincoln

King Kamehameha was the first person to unite the islands of Hawaii and made a government to keep the islands under control. Kamehameha came to power at a ceremony for the successor of Kalaniopuu, he was supposed to be a keeper of the war god Ku, but instead he took Kiwalao’s place as the next ali’i nui. He conquered the other Ali’i on all islands but Kauai, Kamehameha had an agreement with Kaumualii and became the king of all the islands but Kaumualii will still have all the rights on Kauai. Abraham Lincoln was the 16th president of the USA during the gruesome Civil War during 1861 to 1865 (Britannica.com). Lincoln was a benevolent president that believed in equality and human rights. He was also a very significant opponent of slavery, he believed that every human should have equal rights and have freedom. King Kamehameha and President Lincoln are both effective leaders because they are both intelligent, determined, and responsible.

“Violence does, in truth, recoil upon the violent, and the schemer falls into the pit which he digs for another” (Doyle). Assassinations have taken place countless times throughout history. Anyone can get assassinated, but political leaders have to worry the most since so many leaders have been killed in the past. In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Brutus and Cassius (along with the other conspirators) murder Julius Caesar. Although this is just a play, it is very relevant to real life. One situation similar to this Is the JFK assassination. Both situations (Caesar and JFK) are similar in that someone was killed, and it ended poorly for the assassin(s).

Julius Caesar was assassinated because his conspirators thought that he was ambitious and would have enslaved all of the Romans. There were many things that Ceasar did that made him a remarkable leader. On the other hand, many of his actions were questionable and upset his fellow Romans, but he was not ambitious. Malcolm X was known for trying to get the black societies more power than the states were giving them. He was also trying to get the world to see that all people are equal no matter the color of their skin and don't judge a book by its cover. Both Julius Caesar and Malcolm X were leaders who assassinated for things that they would have done in the future but didn’t commit yet.

Abraham Lincoln and, Julius Caesar were both politicians, and they are both similar in their way although they both come from different walks, of life they both share similarities. Abraham Lincoln served as the 16th president of, the United States he was born in Hodgenville, KY in 1809 and, he was assassinated in April of 1865 Abraham Lincoln stood for rights of all people although these two men are quite different they stood for leadership and justice and equality.

And shortly after they were both assassinated Abraham Lincoln, and Julius Caesar left a legacy in which would carry on forever.

In the Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Calphurnia, Caesar's wife, tells Caesar that he should not go out today because it’s the Ides of March, but that she also had a dream. A dream that she saw a statue of Caesar that had blood running down it while Romans were washing their hands in the blood of Caesar with smiles on their faces. Eventually, Caesar does get murdered and there's a funeral held for him which Brutus and Marc Antony talk at. They Roman's follow both men, but can not decide who is more effective.

ivus Julius is the god to which Julius Caesar was elevated to, after his death. In recent years, scholars (Kavoukopoulos, Cliteur, Carotta) have hypothesized the possibility of Jesus Christ being the historical figure of

Presidents Lincoln and Obama are considered two of the greatest presidents. They both had great ideas for a great America. Lincoln dealt with issues; on the other hand, Obama really is a true symbol of freedom leading from Lincoln's accomplishments. President Obama and President Lincoln represent the hard earned freedom and rights of the United States.

civilization has had a range of great people; two of the most brilliant and influential leaders were Alexander the Great and Julius Caesar. The turning points in history they were involved in were their individual conquests and their unfortunate deaths. Alexander's greatest victory was over the Persians; Caesar's greatest victory was his defeat of Pompey. Their actions and beliefs had their influence on their society and society of today.

Julius Caesar and Abraham Lincoln “ Nearly all men can stand adversity, but if you want to test a man’s character, give him power”. A quote by Abraham Lincoln that paints a relevant picture of himself and Julius Caesar. These were both leaders of influence and progress in their own ways but also have things in common with their deaths which were both assassinations. It’s estimated that Julius Caesar was born on July 12, 100 BC.

On the other hand, Julius Caesar’s journey to power was nothing but struggles as he slowly ascended his way to the top. Julius Caesar was born into a family of Aristocrats in Rome around 100 B.C. He had a set of strict parental figures who would constantly beat him to the point of greatness. When Caesar was a child he would drive a chariot pretending to be a general like Alexander from a young age displayed characteristics of a true leader. At the age of fifteen he was first introduced to the political life, accompanied his father, who was a senate to the forum. That same year his father died and he had the responsibility of being the head of his family. Shortly after he had gotten himself married to the daughter of a powerful man but eventually his entire wealth was confiscated as civil war broke out and he fled. When he had returned four years later the whole roman political system changed as well as did Caesar.

Politics come with contrasting opinions. Many people can be for one thing and then for another, thus resulting in a split population. This split population can cause violence in a contrasting belief and uproar from the everyday people can occur. In the tragedy, Julius Caesar, and the real world, political opinions affect the strength of a relationship by completely destroying bonds between individuals.

Julius Caesar, a man born in around 12 to 13, 100 BC, was considered the start of a new legacy in the history of Rome. Participating in several wars, becoming dictator after forming multiple military alliances, to being assassinated on the Ides of March, Julius Caesar was a politically-flexible, popular leader of the Roman Empire. (Julius Caesar Biography, April 23, 2014) Although Caesar’s birth was never confirmed on the exact date, he was born and raised by his mother, Aurelia, and by his father, Gaius Julius Caesar. (Julius Caesar: Historical Background, April 23, 2014)

Julius Caesar and Brutus are more similar than meets the eye. One could argue that both Julius and Brutus are tragic heroes in the tragic play Julius Caesar. This argument is false because Brutus is the one, and only, tragic hero. Brutus is the tragic hero because he possesses the heroic qualities of equality and respect, integrity, and concern for his county, as well as possessing a tragic flaw, which is his own naivety. Heroic qualities can be hard to define, but to simply put it, they are the defining qualities and famed features that define a conqueror. These beliefs often tell the customs and beliefs of the society the hero is from, because this is the way of life for the tragic hero. Every tragic also embeds himself with a tragic flaw. The tragic flaw is the one negative and shameful character trait found throughout that the character just cannot quite seem to control and will lead to their demise, no doubt about it.

According to the plebeians of Rome: Who understood better the nature of Caesar, Mark Anthony or Brutus? We will compare Brutus' view of Caesars ambition, honor, and love of Rome with Mark Anthony's view of his ambition, honor and love of Rome and how the people reacted to such.
