In the play Julius Caesar, there are two ways that makes Brutus and Marc Antony’s speeches are the same, and there is also two ways that their speeches are precisely different to one another. Two ways that their speeches are the same is that Brutus wants the conspirators to listen to his speech and follow his wishes, but Antony wants the conspirators to follow him instead of Brutus, so they both want the people to follow by one of their sides. The strongest contrast between Brutus and Antony appears to be their ability and inability to be both honorable and persuasive. Two ways that their speeches are different is that Brutus an honourable man because he tells everyone the truth. He wants to go first so that he can be safe that Antony won’t
Brutus and Antony use rhetorical strategies in their speeches at Caesar’s Funeral. They both use Ethos, Logos, and Pathos differently to convince the commoners their reasoning is solid. Antony delivers the most effective speech because of his use of inductive reasoning and pathos, while Brutus used ethos the best.
Antony and Brutus are very different in the book Julius Caesar. Julius Caesar was written by Shakespeare. They both went different ways talking about Caesar at the funeral. Antony was very selfish and didn't care about anyone's feeling but his. He was very melentive and he was based on emotion and how he felt. He would change people's mind based on what there heart says not based on facts. On the other hand Brutus reasoning was based on facts and what was right for the people and not just himself. Brutus wanted the best for his country.
The diction used in the two speeches given after Caesar’s death is oddly the same. However, Brutus and Antony are using the same words and phrases for different reasons. While Brutus is using positive diction to convince Rome that Caesar’s murder was justified, Antony is using the exact same thing to show his disbelief for Brutus’ story. In Brutus’ speech, he uses words and phrases such as “valiant”, “honor”, and
In the play Julius Caesar, rhetoric plays an important role in the decision of the people of Rome on who to support. The decision they would make would affect Rome forever. Both of the speeches were well composed. Antony and Brutus both make very convincing arguments using logos, ethos, and pathos. Although their speeches have many similarities, they had drastically different outcomes.
The differences of the two speeches given after Ceasers death was the intentions that were meant to be given at the time of delivery while brutus speaking to them all as Romans appealing to their sense of country their individual ethos while brutus spoke initially greeted them as friends and countrymen leading the country to divide and pick sides. Brutus's ideals were revealed in his speech stating that his duty to his country outweighed the duty he had with his former friend that being the reason he and the others had assassinated the former ruler the fear of julius becoming a tyrant becoming to much to handle.while Mark antony tried hard to keep his fellow citizens calm by telling them not to be angry at the traitorus conspirotors that had
In both speeches, the men give ethical reasons for why the citizens of Rome should believe what they are about to say. Brutus starts his speech trying to convince the people that he is trustworthy. Brutus says, "Believe me for mine honor, and have respect to mine honor that you may believe." (3:ii:14-15) Brutus explains to the people that he is honorable and that the speech he is fixing to give is truthful, and he has not come to tell lies. After Brutus convinced the Romans that Caesar deserved to be slaughtered, Antony came and spoke to the Romans. Antony convinces the citizens that he does not want to argue with
Brutus and Antony are both loyal honorable men, with different intentions. With different intentions, they're both not on the same path. As of in the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Brutus loves Caesar, but loves Rome even more and as of Antony he loves both. Before Caesar death they were both loyal to their leader and honorable. However after Caesars death their true personalities started to emerge. Both of them may seem the same, but slowly you’ll realize the fact that they are different due to their mistakes and decisions.
Mark Antony connects deeper with the plebeians than Brutus does. Mark Antony's speech focuses on emotion and manipulation, while Brutus’s speech focuses on logic and reasoning. Brutus’s purpose of his speech was to explain the assassination of Caesar, while Antony’s purpose was to rowdy the crowd up against the conspirators. Brutus and Antony both gave great speeches
The most predominate and important aspect In the play Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare are the speeches given to the Roman citizens by Brutus and Antony, the two main charaters, following the death of Caesar. Brutus and Antony both spoke to the crowd,using the same rhetorical devices to express their thoughts. Both speakers used the three classical appeals employed in the speeches: ethos, which is an appeal to credibility; pathos, which is an appeal to the emotion of the audience; and logos, which is an appeal to the content and arrangement of the argument itself. Even though both speeches have the same structure Antony’s speech is significantly more effective than Brutus’s.
In the tragic play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, the ruler of Rome, Julius Caesar, is stabbed to death by some of his so-called friends. Brutus, one of Caesar's best friends, is approached by some of the other senators to join the conspiracy to kill Caesar. Brutus weighs his options and decides to join the conspirators for the good of Rome. At Caesars's funeral, Brutus gives a speech to convince the citizens that the conspirators were right to kill Caesar. In contrast, Antony gives a speech to convince the Romans that there was no real reason to kill Caesar. Both characters try to persuade the audience, but they achieve different tones using literary and rhetorical devices. The tone of Brutus' speech is prideful, while the tone of Antony's speech is dramatic and inflammatory.
When Caesar has been killed the common people are in a panic. They form an angry mob and will be the deciding factor on who will rule Rome after Caesar. Brutus and Antony make speeches to the angry mob, they use similar and different styles to persuade their audience. Brutus with logic and and priority on the future of Rome. Antony with emotion and priority on the future of the people.
In William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus and Antony delivered speeches on behalf of Caesar’s tragic death at the Forum. While their messages have various differences, many similarities can also be concluded from their presentations. Brutus, Caesar’s trusted servant, acted solely upon his loyalty for the country of Rome whereas Antony, a close friend of Caesar’s, believed more in loyalty to his friend. This influenced their diction and tone which were exhibited through the writings of their speeches.
Despite these drastic differences, the two orations are similar in a way essential to their effectiveness. Brutus and Antony demand audience participation by asking questions and making comments they know will spark fire in the hearts of the Roman people. After providing his explanation for the extermination of a dangerously ambitious tyrant, Brutus questions the people as to whether or not he has offended anyone or if anyone disagrees with his ideals. He is such an authority figure, though, and he knows no one will stand up to him because the people find safety within the mass. He dares anyone to defy him, "...I pause for a / reply" (Act III, scene ii, lines 34-5). The people reply, "None, Brutus, none!" (Act III, scene ii, line 36). Once he knows he has won the people, Brutus states that he has the same death for himself (the same death as Caesar) when it will benefit Rome. To this, the people reply with shouts of
The speeches given by both Brutus and Mark Antony in William Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Julius Caesar are very persuasive to the audience that they are given to, but rhetorical devices were used in different ways in order for each to have an effect on the people of Rome. In Brutus’s speech, he uses devices such as rhetorical question and antithesis to convince the Romans that he and the conpirators did a good deed by killing Caesar. In Mark Antony’s speech, he sways them to believe that Caesar did not deserve to die, and that the conpirators were the real enemies by using rhetorical devices like rhetorical question and apostrophe. Both speeches were very
Brutus was being very honest about everything. Saying how he just wants the best for all of his fellow Romans and doesn't want to hurt anyone or for anyone to get hurt. He was ultimately just an innocent bystander in Caesar's murder who was pressured and gave into the madness. So Brutus wasn't really a bad guy. However, Mark Antony is pretty much the exact opposite of Brutus. Basically, he's being really manipulative and is trying to invoke a cornucopia of pandemonium because of his own selfish desires. Mark uses paralipsis by bringing out Caesar's will with an attitude like,, "Oh, I don't want to draw any attention to this." Even though he is practically flaunting it in the plebeians faces. He wants all the people to hunt down and kill the conspirators so that they won't get in the way of what he wants, ultimate power. He's being a bit of a jerk. I would say that these differences are just because of their personalities and their own perceptions of the crowd. Naturally, Brutus sees the crowd as a group of Romans who have the burning desire to be free. On the other hand, Mark Antony sees the crowds as people who possess the ability to come up with an ambitious man who deserves the crown, and maybe cause mass destruction and chaos along the way. But once again, these are two very different
