    Reading Brutus: Marcus Brutus is by definition‚ an ‘honourable man’‚ yet the play Julius Caesar poses the question; how can such an honourable man commit such a dishonourable act as murder? This ambiguity is tracked throughout the play as Brutus‚ a man who is constantly ‘with himself at war’ (I‚ ii‚ 51) attempts to convince himself that he acts ‘for the good of Rome’ (3‚ ii‚ 45). But the question is not whether Brutus has managed to convince himself of his nobility‚ but whether he has managed

    Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar Marcus Brutus appears to be the most complicated character. Brutus supports the republic and system of government guided by the votes of the Senators. He does not however‚ support a dictatorship [Quote Brutus:” What means this shouting? I do fear the people choose Caesar for their king.” Lines 84‚85]. Brutus clearly shows that he is a well-respected public figure‚ a kind master to his servants‚ a genius military leader‚ and a loving friend. Brutus’ gullibility is ironically one
