Why? en-us 2017-04-24 10:59:20 UTC 2017-04-24 17:36:02 UTC hello@padlet.com Magdalen https://padlet.com/caikincaid/miniresearch/wish/167809035 1.Julius Caesar has just returned to Rome after a victory in Spain over the sons of his old enemy, Pompey the Great. A celebration for his return has been broken up by Flavius and Marullus, two political enemies of Caesar.
2.Cassius says that he wishes 
Brutus could see himself as others see him, then Brutus would realize how respected he is by others. Brutus says that he knows that the people want Caesar to become king, which would overturn the republic. Cassius says that Caesar is treated like a god though he is merely a man, no better than Brutus or Cassius. This is an example of rhetoric because it gives the characters and audience something to think about, what makes Ceaser a better ruler than Brutus.

Cassius is completely hating and tries to persuade Brutus to join and help him kill Caesar. Brutus then folds under pressure and kills Caesar.

Despite warnings to "Beware the Ides of March," Caesar continues to go to the senate meeting, where he is then stabbed. 

Rome, lead by Mark Anthony, riots against the betrayers, and they are thrown from Rome. Cassius and Brutus commit suicide, while Anthony and Octavius rule Rome.

The use of rhetoric to justify leadership or rebellion is going to be developed the most throughout the play, because the play will analyze Caesar's use of rhetoric to gain power, and Cassius's use of rhetoric to convince the senate to rebel.

Conspirators including Brutus, a friend of Caesar, make plans to kill him. They kill him in front of his senators. At the funeral Marc Antony, Caesar's "best friend" rallies the people to kill the murders using every trick in the book. After months of battling and running from Rome, Brutus is killed in Phillipi. The roman empire was kept together.

Roman senators. They conspire to remove Caesar from any power, fearing the power he could get that would damage Rome. After Caesar's death, the play looks on the aftermath, following certain key players such as Mark Antony and Brutus. The regret and betrayal stemming from Caesar's death is the reason we read this play, and how easily a vulnerable audience can be manipulated.

But the Senate feared he would gain too much power and enslave his own people. Which is when they began to plot his murder thinking it would help. After killing Julius it only divided the empire more and created civil wars between Rome and enemies. ]]> 2017-04-24 17:27:12 UTC https://padlet.com/caikincaid/miniresearch/wish/167911435 Claire Courtney Brianna Jasmine https://padlet.com/caikincaid/miniresearch/wish/167911461 We believe that the third EQ will be answered today.
