Brutus And Wittenberg And Openness
Openness is an evolution one can acclimated with after ample experience in the world. This state of mind has taken an individual quite some years to reach the position. In a statement by Brutus & Wittenberg,“openness represents the tendency to be intellectual, flexible, and broadminded, and involves divergent thinking and unconventional attitudes”. “Furthermore, openness represents the need to examine different experiences and is distinguished from its polar opposite closeness to experience or closed mindedness”(Brutus & Witenberg, 2014, p291)”. Certainly, maturity of those within the environment will be crucial to grasp this concept.

    Throughout Cassius’ speech, he used the persuasive appeals logos, pathos, and ethos to try to turn Brutus against Caesar. Out of all three appeals, I believe he used ethos best. In Act 1, Scene 2, one of the first things Cassius says when he is alone with Brutus is, “Well honour is the subject of my story.” In other words, Cassius is saying, “Brutus, you can trust me because I am a very trustworthy person.” This persuades Brutus into listening to what Cassius has to say because it makes him feel as if he can trust in what Cassius is saying. Then, as Cassius continues to talk he says, “I, as Aneas, our great ancestor, did from the flames of Troy upon his shoulder the old Anchises bear, so from the waves of Tiber did I the tired Caesar.” Here,…

    The reason Brutus participates in the killing of Caesar fascinates me because his perspective is different from the men around him. Brutus is a friend of Caesar and believes in democracy. He fears that Caesar will be crowned king but has no concrete evidence. All he knows is that Caesar refused the crown thrice, which is a fact. However, Casca informs Brutus that Caesar was reluctant to lay his fingers of the crown, this is an opinion which can be misleading, and also Casca is known for his sour nature. Brutus continues with the killing, not knowing the truth behind Caesar. This is an interesting mistake as it is similar to the mistake George Bush made when he accused Iraq of having weapons of mass destruction. We don't know for sure that Caesar…
