Tiberius Claudius Caesar Augustus Germanicus was a mighty ruler who was well-liked by his people.

He was the most influential and powerful Emperors, who should nothing but braveness, and loyalty to Rome. On January 24, 41 AD Gaius Claudius took the throne, in a rather odd way. Emperor Gaius had invited dancers back to his chambers and had invited Claudius to go with him, however he
Was Brutus’ actions really an act of patriotism? In Julius Caesar, the play, he conspired with many other people to kill Caesar, so he wouldn’t become king. Brutus was a traitor because Caesar was his friend and he didn't stay loyal to him. Even though his action was dreadful towards his friend, the question is whether it was patriotic or not. Brutus was a patriot for he didn't want the people that lived in Rome to suffer from Caesar's dictatorship. Although Brutus was thinking of the big picture
It is said that idealism does not protect one from ignorance, dogmatism, and foolishness. In Shakespeare's "Julius Caesar", this is exemplified by the character Marcus Brutus. Known as the most complex character in the play, Brutus kills Caesar, whom he loves, for the sake Rome, which he loves more. Though in the end, he is labelled by Mark Antony as "the noblest Roman of them all", Brutus is blinded by his idealistic point of view, and this point of view has a negative impact on himself and others

Shakespeare uses literary devices to appeal to the audience and persuade them. In Brutus’s speech, he used pathos to appeal to the emotions. When he stated that he did not love ‘Caesar less, but that he loved Rome more, he gave a dramatic sense of patriotic pride. He is so loyal to his own country, he would sacrifice loved ones in order to protect it. It also gave an effect of pity towards him because he sacrificed his friend anyways for the better good. Shakespeare make him appear more sincere.
Pathos is arguably the most effective rhetorical appeal for drawing on emotional reaction from the audience. From emotionally feeling a song to being motivated by a speech, pathos makes its appearance in the best of written literature. A vast advantage is given to the speaker who can take in to account a particular audience's feelings. In Mark Antony's eulogy for Caesar and Atticus Finch's defense statement for Tom Robinson, pathos is effectively used in order to influence the audience's mindset
At Caesar’s funeral, Brutus lets Antony’s to speak to the public under two circumstances. Antony was allowed to give a speech only after Brutus’ speech was done and if he promises to not say anything against to the conspirators.

There are many parts to a speech that make it powerful. The three main categories that can decide how good a speech is are logos, ethos, and pathos. Logos is a person's logic and reasoning behind their argument, ethos is the trust between the speaker and the crowd, and pathos is the emotion in a speech. All of these are important to helping a speech be as strong as possible and without them, a speech with a lot of potential can seem dull and unimportant. When comparing and contrasting speeches
In Act III scene ii, Antony and Brutus used different rhetoric devices for their speeches; although both were successful in influencing the Roman citizens. In Brutus’s speech he uses alliteration to ask “Who is here so base that would be a bondman?” and “Who is here so rude that would not be a Roman?” However, these questions are not only alliteration, but also rhetorical questions. He asks these to guilt trip the Romans into thinking that they would be selfish to not care about their own country
