country.” Brutus, a character in Julius Caesar by Shakespeare, is often surrounded by debates of whether he was a traitor or a patriot. He is described as a traitor to his best friend, Julius Caesar, because he murders him, and he is described as a patriot for saving Rome from a corrupt ruler. Brutus was a patriot of Rome because, though he murdered his best friend, Caesar, all of his actions were performed for the greater good of his beloved nation. The most popular argument for describing Brutus as
Shakespeare play in which Brutus kills Caesar. This is a controversial topic, with the question of “Was Brutus a betrayer or patriot” on everyone’s minds. Those who think he is a traitor are appalled that Brutus would kill one of his close friends. On the other hand, sometimes one has to do something they don’t want to do in order to save their country. This is the case in Julius Caesar, in which Brutus murders Caesar to save Rome. In order to save the thousands of people in Rome, Brutus felt compelled to
Brutus was a patriot of Rome and did what he did for the sake of his own country. Some people in today’s society still believe that Brutus was just a horrible traitor which isn’t true. He was a kind friend who only wanted to help his people, even if that meant killing his best friend. Brutus was a patriot of Rome and not a traitor. Brutus may have been one of the conspirators to kill Caesar brutally, but like I said before, Brutus was simply protecting his country from slavery. When it comes to
conspirator is defined as being a traitor and committing an illegal or wrongful act. I think Brutus was not being an honorable man and played a role as a traitor against his country and friend. First of all, Brutus did not know what his country wanted and what was best for it. Second, Brutus didn’t even know what he wanted until Cassius deceived him. Lastly, Brutus was a traitor toward Caesar and his country by killing his dearest friend. My argument claims that Brutus was a dishonorable man and he did
and villains using the senators of Rome to show the difference between heroes and villains. The hardest character to determine was the hero Brutus, by analyzing his loyalty, background, and his intentions, one can determine that Brutus was a hero to Rome. Brutus’ loyalty helps shape whether his cause was justice or unjustified. In the beginning, Brutus is walking with Caesar. He even helps him when a soothsayer tells him to beware the Ides of March. “What man is that? / A soothsayer bids you
because he is loyal. Mark Antony is not a traitor. He has been loyal to caesar even after his death and he can be loyal to you as well if you remain loyal to him for loyalty is everything. He will make sure that the unequal treatment between the rich and the poor no longer exists in this country (pathos) .When Mark Antony makes a decision he never changes his mind and that is one of the qualities of a good leader. Why oh why would you even consider voting for Brutus? There’s one thing that all rulers should
the traitor’s good sides and make it seem as if he had joined them so that he could convince the citizens to fight against them with him. He deceived the traitors and convinced them to let him speak at Caesar’s funeral, and in this speech he turned the citizens against them using very powerful rhetorical skills. After he had drove the traitors from the city, he took control of the city and led them to victory in a war against the conspirator’s armies. These are three telling examples that prove Antony’s
logic. Between Brutus and Mark Anthony, from the play “Julius Caesar’’ by William Shakespeare, Antony gave the best argumentative speech using the rhetorical strategies. This is because Antony used all three strategies throughout his speech better. In both speeches are the use of pathos. In Antony’s hes says: “For Brutus, as you know was Caesar’s angel… this was the most unkindest cut of them all.” (Act 3, Scene 2) What he means by this is that Caesar loves Brutus a lot, But Brutus betrayed him and
Brutus loves Rome and will do anything to keep it safe from the evil of the world. Brutus kills Caesar because he thinks it’s for the best. Brutus believes Caesar would have made the people of Rome slaves if he didn’t kill Caesar. Brutus also cares for his friends and brothers. He gave up when his friends died and killed himself. He rather die than getting paraded through Rome as a prisoner. Brutus even said, “If I should die, I will hold your dagger and do it myself.” Brutus was very noble
these controversy’s is the case of Brutus from ancient Rome. Brutus is a patriot because he was willing to kill one of his best friends for the greater good of Rome and he saved the people from being slaves. He was a patriot and not a traitor though he tried to force Antony to be ok with what he did. Brutus was a patriot and not a traitor, however he tried to force Antony to be ok with what he did. Brutus was not trying to force Antony to accept anything. Brutus knew how loyal Antony was to Caesar
