Anticipation Questions for Julius Caesar
1. Chaos results when the lawful social order is broken.
- Yes I believe that when lawful social order is broken chaos erupts because without control there would be no one to stop the force that is going against them.
2. The best intentions of good, noble people can lead to tragedy.
- Some may lead to tragedy but not all because if the intentions of the individual were to only help it couldn’t create tragedy for someone else. If the individual was to help another person there wouldn’t be any tragedy because either the person could have been in trouble or worse.
3. Language is a powerful weapon and in the hands of a skilled person, it can be used to manipulate others.
- Yes the way we speak can persuade a lot on people into giving you free things or be nice to you. With the right tone of voice and right word choice an individual would be able to manipulate and use others.
4. Violence and bloodshed can never have morally good results.
- Yes bloodshed and violence can never have morally good results because violence can only lead to breaking the law or even death. Violence can lead to these because if the person who was to commit the crime had all intentions to do so.

5. Orderliness and stable rule, even rule by a dictator, are preferable to chaos.
- Not all of the time because if the dictator were to be non-corrupt and able to defend and help his people it wouldn’t lead to chaos. The main time a dictator is preferable lead into chaos is when he uses his powers for the wrong intentions such as Hilter. Hitler abused his power and used it to kill hundreds of thousands of

    Language, in itself, is exceptionally powerful. Language has the power to stop wars, to solve conflicts; however, perhaps one of the most important forces of language is the power to create emotion, to create meaning. The words an author elects to use can effectively impact one’s own reality. In the event that language is effectively utilized, it can evoke deep emotion from the reader and induce extensive thought in order to connect the words to the meaning. An author can manipulate language to convey their message by their choice of diction throughout a passage or by further applying various forms of figurative language to create imagery.…

    In the Tragedy of Julius Caesar, honor and betrayal are a huge factor. A lot of times, different characters make it seem like it’s ok to betray one another to either keep a secret or defend their honor. In my opinion, it seems very selfish, but in the play they do it because everyone else does it. It’s kind of like a natural habit like it’s no big deal. Throughout the play, I learned why and about the reasons they all betray each other, all about honor, and both their roles in the play.…

    When reading the book a Rage in Harlem by Chester Himes it brought me to the realization how language is not just a way to communicate with people. But rather it can be used in harmful ways where people can be deceived, cheated on, pushed away, hurt, and etc. language and communication is the strong connection it brings about between two people. Communication between person to person can either make a person’s day or it can kill them inside where what was said and done to them will never be forgotten.…

    Violence is one of the cruelest acts in this world. From terror attacks, to bullying, violence is everywhere. Martin Luther once said, "Nothing good ever comes of violence."

    People can have two different views on this question, and its one that can cause much debate. In my opinion, I believe it is completely wrong to use violence to prove something, since I think it makes every matter worse. Violence is always wrong, even in self-defense. Usually if someone is threatening you it's because that person feels threatened themself; if you make it clear you're no threat to that person they’ll probably stand down. And in the few cases where they don’t it's much better to die knowing that you have refrained from violence than to live knowing that you have hurt or killed another person. Another reason why I think violence isn’t right to prove a point is that it actually can kill more people than it can save. America and Germany fought for power even though some suggest it was to solve conflict. Yet after the war, Russia tried going after America, and since then, there as been unrest between the two. Now they have created weapons of mass destruction in order to scare each other off and try gain peace. But what happens when the time comes to use those weapons to "solve the conflict"? Will there be anyone left to save? Violence is the WORST way to solve conflict, and if you try to prove a point it only makes things worse. Overall, I believe violence is never good. It will never be good. Violence only causes a vicious cycle. Two wrongs do not make a right. No matter what happens, do not use violence, violence will only make matters worse, not better. There are many better ways of sorting out things, rather than violence.…

    There are heroic individuals that will risk their lives for complete strangers and rescue the one in need of assistance. While on his way to class on January 7, 2007, Cameron Hollopeter appeared to become disoriented after an apparent seizure, and he collapsed on the tracks of a Harlem subway stop. That’s when Wesley Autrey attempted to remove Cameron from the tracks but realized there was not enough time because there was an oncoming train approaching them, so he pinned the two of them in the drainage rut between the rails and waited for the train to pass over them. There are various reasons why certain people would endanger themselves to assist someone in need of aid. Some choose to act because if the roles were reversed, they would hope someone would help them. Others simply believe it is the right thing to do under any circumstance. "I just saw someone who needed help," Autrey told The New York Times. "I did what I felt was right."…
