Brutus says Caesar is ambitious, and Brutus is an honorable man, but was Caesar really that ambitious? The speaker, Marc Antony, is trying to convince all the people of Rome into liking him more than the people that killed Caesar. Marc Antony uses many rhetorical analysis tactics to do this.

    In my essay, I was able to use pathos, ethos, and logos effectively to interpret the ideas of power and how it affects one’s personal life. I used the technique of logos, by taking the information of Julius Caesar, Abraham Lincoln, and Adolf Hitler as evidence so I could have accurate conclusions. Also with the evidence and the leaders I mentioned in my essay, I stated Ethos, because it related to the idea that my ideas were credible based on my evidence. Ethos was also stated in the in-text citations and quotes, helping to make my essay credible that I got the information from a worthy source. I appealed to emotion with the technique of pathos, by creating sympathy for Brutus’s wife in The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.

    Brutus was Caesar's best friend, but it seems that Brutus was too the one who brought Ceasar to his death. Brutus uses Ethos, Pathos, and Logos to convince the crowd that Caesar was killed for Rome to rise. An example of Brutus using Ethos is when he gives credibility to his words so that the people of Rome do not second guess or think about his decisions. “Believe me on my honor and keep my honor in mind, so that you may believe me” (Crowther 48). Brutus uses Pathos when he explains to the people that he killed Caesar for Rome to rise and that he would protect Rome from any “harm”.
