    To assassinate means, “To kill suddenly or secretively, especially a politically prominent person; murder premeditatedly and treacherously”(dictionary reference 1).. Julius Caesar was born on July 12, 100 BC, and was assassinated by many Roman senators near the theatre of Pompey on the Ides of March, on March 15, 44 BC. Achity explains his assassination by stating that “In the Senate chamber, Antonius is drawn to one side. Then the conspirators crowd about Caesar as if to second a petition for the repealing of an order banishing Publius Cimber. When he refuses the petition, the conspirators attack him, and he falls dead of twenty-three knife wounds” (Atchity 7). The assassination of Julius Caesar was unjust because he was a victorious soldier, and he was a prosperous leader; however, others believe that he was a tyrant.…

Although the title of the play is Julius Caesar, Caesar is not the central character in its action; he appears in only three scenes, and is killed at the beginning of the third act. The protagonist of the play is Marcus Brutus, and the central psychological drama is his struggle between the conflicting demands of honor, patriotism, and friendship.…

    As a tragic hero Brutus possesses a flaw of naivety. Brutus is too trusting in others, such as the conspirators. The conspirators believed that Caesar was too ambitious and that they should kill him for the good of Rome, themselves and for their own personal benefit. Brutus trusted that they were conspiring to kill him for the sake of Rome. (Quote). He was also naïve by letting Antony speak at Caesar’s funeral. Brutus believed that Antony would praise Caesar at his funeral and follow the rules that he was given. Brutus trusted him and by letting him speak Antony turned all the Romans against him. Antony sparked a civil war by convincing the Romans that the conspirators that they did wrong. Since Antony turned all the Romans against him, he…

    I, as a juror in Brutus’s trial, am responsible for examining Brutus’s intentions in killing Caesar and determining whether he should be punished for being part of the plot to assassinate the leader of Rome. The resolution of this case will either justify Brutus and the other conspirators’ act of murder or avenge Caesar’s death. Due to his overly ambitious nature and false claim that he did what was best for Rome, I believe that Brutus killed Caesar to gain power and therefore should be punished for his involvement in the murder.…

    Throughout the essay How to Mark a Book the author, Mortimer J. Adler, brings up the idea and topic of what makes a book worthy of being ‘marked up’ and what he considers to be a light read. He uses examples such as Paradise Lost and Gone with the Wind; The latter being deemed not as worthy. The reason being because it simply does not make you think quite as hard as say, something such as the Bible would. It does not require as much thought and conversation with the author. With that being said, what determines if a book is light? If an easy read of fiction could simply fall into this category, perhaps a book such as The Giver would not require as much thought in comparison to Shakespeare’s Hamlet, therefore not worthy of being marked up. The purpose of this essay will be to determine whether or not…

    Also people die in Mafia because they kind of looking for death, just like Caesar because he's been warned twice but overlooks both times.Calpurina says to Caesar " When beggars die,there are no comets seen; The heavens themselves blaze fourth the death of princes." If a civilian dies,no one really cares because there so many but if Caesar dies, everyone is affected. This relates to Mafia because you simple kill one person and it doesn't mean anything,but if you kill a certain people you get a different reaction from the people. Another big factor of both of Julius Caesar and Mafia is the Killer. In both ways when someone dies,the people become the detectives. In Mafia the detectives are trying to figure out who the Murderer is. In Julius Caesar case the deceives would be the rich people of Rome that's are with Ceasar and his wife Calpurina.
