About this resource
Julius Caesar stages a struggle over political authority and the meaning given to public events. Brutus and Antony address an audience whose response changes as their speeches unfold. Read persuasive methods in context: repetition and appeals to honour matter because speakers use them for particular purposes. The play offers a useful way to explore the difference between a sincere motive, a convincing argument and the consequences of action.
