Pride is defined as a feeling of pleasure derived from one’s achievements‚ qualities or possessions. In the case of Shakespeare’s Coriolanus‚ pride is a quality predominantly shown by Caius Martius.

I believe that Brutus was the greatest leader on the play just because he had what it takes to be a great leader like courage‚ strong character‚ and lovingness.

In my opinion the noblest character in the play was Brutus. Therefore I agree with Anthony when he says Brutus was the noblest Roman of all. Brutus truly was a great person in this play.

The reason I choose Brutus as the Noblest Roman of them all was because he put Rome before his friendship with Caesar. Although it was not an easy decision to assassinate Caesar. I believed that he thought it was the

What Did I Just Read? To write about Tim Crouch’s I‚ Cinna I first had to dissect my feelings. Mainly‚ my lack of any strong emotional attachment. With some introspection I realised this play did not so much feel like a play but an essay. His deconstructing of Shakespeare’s The Tragedie of Julius Caesar has created a stream-lined and persuasive narrative. The thesis: The moral conflicts in Julius Caesar are relevant to everyone. The first step to any essay is introducing an idea to be explored
