Julius Caesar Ethos Pathos Logos

In “Julius Caesar” by William Shakespeare, Marc Antony uses pathos and metaphors to convey his point of understanding crowd psychology. Although Antony respects both sides of Caesar and the conspirators, he gradually persuades the crowd to believe the positive actions Caesar had made during his time, “...common pleasures to walk abroad and recreate yourselves. Here was a Caesar! Where comes such another?” (3.2. Line 264-66). Pathos is shown as Antony provokes how important Caesar was to the Roman Empire and all he has done for his town, stirring the crowds’ perspectives through the sympathy he speaks across. Antony finishes this quote with spreading gratefulness to the crowd, and how hard it will be for them to find a leader as inspiring

In William Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, after Caesar’s death, the Romans are conflicted about what should be done. After Brutus’ speech the Romans are ready to crown Brutus king and be on the conspirators’ side. Though Brutus then leaves the crowd while Antony delivers his speech, the crowd realizes what should be done of Caesar’s murder and Antony prevents the conspirators from getting away with the murder of Caesar. Antony uses rhetorical appeals and techniques in his speech to turn the people of Rome against those conspiring against Caesar. As a result, the people see Antony as a persuasive and strong leader of Rome.

Antony uses many rhetorical devices in his speech from logos to pathos and many more but, the most effective rhetorical device in Antony's speech is logos because, in Antony's speech he pulls from the people's strings and emotions to get the people of Rome to get on his side and not Brutus’s side. Antony uses logos in many ways and uses it in the best possible way he can. Anthony's goal by using the rhetorical device logos, is that he is trying to make everyone one not on Brutus’s side about the reason why he killed caesar.

Mark Antony is trying to win over the people of Rome by his very effective use of rhetoric. In his speech, his overall point is to persuade the Roman citizens that Brutus’s claim of Caesar being ambitious is not true. Antony’s use of rhetorical devices such as a rhetorical question give the people a good message. When he is telling them that Caesar brought many captives to Rome, he asks, “Did this in Caesar seem ambitious” (3.2.18). Antony’s rhetorical question was very effective since he is making the people question Brutus’s claim. At the same time, Antony uses rhetoric to persuade the Romans. While Antony is questioning the citizens why they do not love Caesar anymore, he uses pathos. He asks, “what cause withholds you then, to mourn

In Act III, Scene 2 of The Tragedy of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Marc Antony is able to change the mood of the crowd. The commoners transform from a confused, depressed group of people to an angry mob wanting to get back at the conspirators for their despicable action. Antony manages to do so by using ethos, pathos, and logos. These three persuasive techniques all appeal to the audience in a different way. Ethos are phrases that relate to ethics or morals and make oneself sound fair and unbiased. Pathos control the emotions of an audience and evoke a certain feeling to persuade the crowd in this case. Finally, logos convince an audience using reasoning and logic. Antony expresses a variety of persuasive techniques throughout his entire speech and change the mindset of the commoners using ethos, pathos, and logos.

Brutus and Antony speak in Caesar's funeral, they use ethos, pathos, and logos to get their point across. With the use of the pathos, logos, and ethos Brutus gets the attention of the commoners. He asks the commoners if what he is going to say is going to offend them, if it does he asks of them to leave there and they all tell Brutus no. Antony speaks before Brutus and gets his point across but fails at his point and just gets the crowd thinking. Brutus than uses his speech techniques to win over the commoner’s ears to listen to him. He gives his crowd the option to leave if they thought what he was going to say was nonsense.

In the play Julius Caesar by William shakespeare, Caesar is murdered by the senators of rome, to prevent his power hungry ego from destroying their beloved city. During Caesar's funeral, both Marc Antony and brutus give speeches. Both speeches contain athos, which appeals to emotions, and rhetorical questions, these emphasize both of the speeches in different ways. Although Brutus is a convincing orator, Antony's uses a more effective form of rhetorical questions and pathos, which evokes feelings in the audience..

First, Mark Antony employs the persuasive appeal ethos to deliver an effective persuasive speech. Ethos refers to listening and trusting in the speaker. Mark Antony uses ethos in the opening of his address. He commands trust and consideration by proclaiming, "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears; / I come to bury Caesar, not to praise

In the beginning of his speech, he attempts to gain their trust by saying, “Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears” (3.2.82). This remark now makes the Romans feel as they are all one, as well as Antony. It also confirmed to the Plebeians that he was on their side and was trustworthy. Also in his speech, Antony questions them by asking, “ Did this in Caesar seem ambitious?” (3.2.99). Antony is trying to find out whether they believe if Brutus had a valid reason to assassinate Caeser. He achieves his goal of making the murder seem unethical by using his convincing argument.

Betrayal can be defined as breaking the bond of trust in any type of relationship, and deceiving others. In The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare, betrayal can be seen throughout the play, done to and by many of the characters. Many of the reasons why betrayal is shown in the play are all for a similar reasons- Ambition / greed. The theme of Julius Caesar is that people betray others because of ambition and greed.

When he started his speech he said "Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him". In this first sentence it is already showing how he is relating to all of the people in Rome with the words he chose. He is calling everyone to listen to him and how he knows that he killed Caesar and doesn't praise him. During the middle of his speech he recalls back to when Caesar was offered the crown,"I thrice presented him a kingly crown, which he did thrice refuse". He is reminding everyone that Caesar didn't want to be king at first and that he was disrespectful to the crown. Mark Antony's speech got the crowd feeling angry towards Caesar which made the forget that he had murdered

The play Julius Caesar, written by William Shakespeare, is a tale of friendship and betrayal, full of men vying for political power in the city of Rome. Young and ambitious Marc Antony stands out amongst the group as vastly intelligent and well-spoken beyond his years. Antony uses his persuasive skills throughout the course of the play to hide his deceit as well as to change the minds of the Roman people. He does this through using devices that solidify his argument to readers. These persuasive devices are known as pathos, logos, and ethos. Pathos is a form of persuasion that mainly deals with the use of emotion. Logos and ethos are similar except that logos is linked to logic and ethos is used to implore ethics. Mark Antony is able to turn

How would you persuade the common people to support the correct cause? During this time in Act 3 of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Caesar was recently assassinated by Brutus and other conspirators. Brutus first delivered a speech to try and gain people on his side, and Antony followed. Antony's speech was the most effective because he appeals to the peoples emotions and uses evidence.

Antony's use of power is done in a way of influence. When Antony delivered his speech at Caesar's funeral, he was smart enough to think of a way to depict his real message hidden in the form of another message. The seemingly obscure message got past the rules set by the conspirators. His way of repeating words such as “honorable” and his claims about Caesar's will was a way for the audience to figure out his reason for speaking and for him to gain their trust.

In the year 44 BC the powerful empire of Rome had lost its ruler due to the assassination led by the senators and Julius Caesar’s brother Brutus. Caesar’s death was a huge setback for Rome and its people and the whole empire was in utter chaos.
