his speech during Caesar’s funeral‚ Mark Antony tries to persuade the Plebeians that what the conspirators did to Caesar was not acceptable and something must be done‚ and this creates a critical and disappointed tone. During the beginning of Antony’s speech‚ he established his main ideas‚ and showed that he was different from Brutus. In fact‚ his first line‚ “Friends‚ Romans‚ countrymen‚ lend me your ears”(3.2.82) tells a lot. Antony uses the word “friends” first‚ and this differs from Brutus because

In what follows‚ I will explicate the classic speeches of Shakespeare’s Brutus and Mark Antony (Julius Caesar) in an attempt to demonstrate both the sophistic and argumentative reasoning styles of persuasion. Firstly‚ the speech by Brutus is quick‚ rather simplified and to the point. Brutus suggests that Caesar became ‘ambitious’ and therefore‚ had to be killed. Although his oratory is much-less wordy than that of Antony‚ he does offer a reasoned argument‚ as when he asks‚ “Have you rather Caesar
