Brutus is an honourable and wise man, but it is his naivety that leads to his failure and death. Brutus has leadership qualities that make him an honourable leader; he is considered to be the most honourable man in Rome. He wants the best for his country because he loves Rome. Also, Brutus is wise and thoughtful; he takes his time before making a decision. He thinks about the best way to do things which makes him smarter. At the same time Brutus is naive to believe anyone by what they say, he trust Cassius and cannot see that all he is telling him is lies. He also, gives permission for Anthony to speak at Caesar’s funeral which causes his death. To make a change the inequality between man and women should not exists, because all humans are
He also always spoke with honesty, and was a truthful person. The last reason is because he loved Rome, and all of his decisions were based on his love for Rome. Brutus was truly a noble man, and although he made some wrong decisions, he tried his hardest to do what was best for the city that he loved more than himself. Throughout the book, Brutus tried to remain
Every Tragedy Has Its Hero Brutus was a man that possessed many positive qualities but also possessed many negatives traits too. He was a kind, intelligent, and noble person, but he was also overly trusting, easily manipulated, and not very good at getting people to follow his lead. These qualities are what makes Brutus a tragic hero. Everyone has flaws, and because of that everyone knows those flaws can lead to bad things. Brutus was a person with good intentions but also weaknesses, and these weaknesses led to his downfall.
Brutus has very strong feelings towards Caesar and him becoming the king of Rome. He believes that if Caesar becomes king he will be kind at first but then will abuse his powers and make bad choices for Rome. While planning Caesar’s murder Brutus is having a hard time pretending to smile and act as if he was not going to murder anyone. His wife Portia, knows that something is bothering him and begs him to tell her but he will not say a thing. Caesar is not listening to his sign from the soothsayer to beware and is still deciding to go.
Brutus shows integrity through his actions by always making decisions that benefit Rome and the people. It is in one of Brutus’s soliloquies that he states what Caesar’s reign would look like and then further explains his reasons for wanting to kill Caesar. He uses the illustration of Caesar being climbing a ladder and only looking up into what is next never bothering to look back to the people who helped him get there (II.1.10-36). This displays Brutus’s Virtue by displaying his true reasons for deciding to take part in Caesar’s death. It is in Brutus’s thoughts that his virtue really shows owing to the fact that his actions are always justified.
He was courageous when killing Caesar for the people of Rome. He had integrity when making unselfish decisions and joining the conspiracy only for the citizens. Lastly, he was kind when making choices no matter how risky, but only with good intentions of others. The citizens of Rome craved the leadership of someone with courage, integrity, and kindness Brutus possessed. Brutus was the leader who could step up to the plate and be
Brutus is not evil in his mind rather he lives honorably and whatever he has done was
Antony calls Brutus an honorable man, using the phrase honorable man in a bad way. He tries to convince people that what was done is good. Brutus is the most despicable character in Julius Caesar because join the conspirators with their plot and kill his friends Caesar. Brutus is the most most despicable because he kill his very own friend Caesar he is very shocked.
Brutus's use of logic and circumstance to uphold his point and his people, helps him give a good range of individual backbone, and logic to his
He had the attitude of a fair ruler, one who cared for his people and would listen. He had an attitude unlike caesars. Caesars attitude was a you cant touch this attitude where he wouldnt listen to pesants while Brutus would have gone out of his wa to listen to even the littlest of people. I believe that Brutus would have been the leader that rome needed all along to help keep the country a whole. Brutus was the noblest man of all of rome because he was his own person and thought for others before he thought of himself.
He was unable to see through the fake letters that are supposedly written by the people of Rome, but in reality are being written as a scam from Cassius. Brutus interpreted these letters as a protest against Caesar. He believed the people of Rome were telling him their desires through this letter, he tries to resolve this by listening to the societies challenge to “speak, strike, redress” (II.i.47). Reading these letters from “random citizens” it is what finally pushes him over the edge.
Sometimes human life is like a game, only a mistake leads to many failures. Brutus is truly a hero, but he is a tragic hero, a very poor hero. Caesar and Brutus are both ambitious, Caesar wants power for himself, but Brutus want power for the best of Rome. One of the thing that makes Brutus fits the definition of a tragic hero more than Caesar is that he has a noble personality. Brutus is always afraids that Caesar will become a tyrant, and at that time, everyone will become slaves, who live in misery.
Brutus is without a doubt the most noble character in this play. Nonetheless, his impeccable sense of morality also blindfolds him to other people’s sordid motives and makes him easy to be manipulated. Indeed, Brutus is easily manipulated by Cassius in Act 1, Scene 2. In hope to convince Brutus to join the conspirators, Cassius says “Men at some time are masters of their fates: The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, but in ourselves, that we are underlings” (1.2.150-152). As a result, Brutus starts to believes that it is his job to murder Caesar, as he says in Act 2, Scene 1: “It must be by his death: and for my part, I know no personal cause to spurn at him, but for the general” (2.1.14-16).
Brutus and Cassius have conflicting values, Brutus wanted the best for the Roman people, and Cassius did it of what seemed to be envy. Brutus also tosses around the idea in his head that killing Caesar could have been the wrong choice to make to try to help the Roman people. Brutus and Cassius display a limited number of traits, but they are unquestionable. Brutus is a reputable man, and his known for being the most noble of all the Romans according to Octavius in the end of the play. Brutus also bears the fatal flaw of being naive to his actions.
Slide 3, Personality Trait #2: Caesar’s personality trait is a controlling person. Her controlled the whole part of Rome by himself. He controlled who they fought like Pompey. Then made other people like Flavius and Marullus mad because Caesar’s people that he controlled won. So now other people hate them and Rome most likely hates caesar more.
