    The overlook of Brutus’s and Antony’s speeches are not similar at all in my eyes. Brutus’s speech was trying to show the citizen’s that there was no harm in killing Julius Caesar‚ which there was. Brutus partially manipulates the citizens by saying how much he really loved Caesar‚ but loved the city of Rome even more. The citizens were moved by his speech because of how protected they felt by his words. Brutus talks good of Caesar‚ saying how there are tears for his love‚ joy for his fortune‚ honor

Mark Antony‚ a dear friend of the recently-deceased Caesar‚ and Brutus – once a friend of Caesar‚ later his assassin – are diametrically opposed at the outset of these occurrences. Brutus gives Antony the opportunity to make a speech at the funeral‚ however‚ we find him under some rather serpentine conditions.

When Brutus spoke to the crowd‚ they understood what he was saying and trusted him. When Antony spoke‚ the crowd rose up in rage and

    conspirators depended on Marcus Brutus for one reason: to justify the murder of Julius Caesar. However after allowing Mark Antony to not only bring in the corpse of their beloved Caesar yet also speak after Brutus during the funeral‚ it would seem that Brutus’ role in the murder was pointless. Both Brutus and Antony delivered powerful speeches using irony and rhetorical devices but one speech failed to deliver an essential connection with the crowd. Although Brutus persuades the plebeians‚ Mark Antony
