Comparison Of Cassius And Julius Caesar

How different do you think Cassius and Julius Caesar really are? They are pretty different people. The two Romans are from the book “Julius Caesar” by William Shakespeare. Highlights of this play is when Cassius finally turns Brutus on his side. In addition, another highlight of the play is when Julius Caesar dies by the conspirators hands. And finally, the final highlight was Mark Antony’s change in character. At first he is quiet and will do whatever Julius Caesar wants him to do. Then after Julius Caesar’s death, Mark Antony becomes aggressive, strategic, and confident. But before I contrast Cassius and Julius Caesar, I need to compare them. They both want power and both are way too overconfident. In this essay, I will explain the differences in between both Cassius and Julius Caesar. Like their love for Rome, their ambitions, and finally their strategic ability. I will first explain Cassius’ love for the Roman Empire. Cassius cares more about himself than for the Roman Empire. My evidence is that the only reason he wanted Julius Caesar dead even though it might be for the worst. He wanted all of Julius Caesar’s power all to himself. A statement from Cassius says, “Why should that name be sounded more than yours.” In this quote from the book, Cassius is getting Brutus to help him kill Caesar. This concludes my first pint of contrast for Cassius. Now I will explain Julius Caesar’s love for the Roman Empire. Julius Caesar tries to make the Roman Empire the most powerful
