ANTONY SPEECHES MARCH 14/ 15- BEWARE THE IDES OF MARCH!!!!!!!!
Act II and I111
GOALS: Students will relate to the concepts of betrayal and deception in modern society.
Students will discuss PARADOX
1. In the packet, students will read "An Introduction to Julius Caesar"
2. Student will read and take notes on "A Brief History of the Roman Empire"
Paradox:
At the most basic level, a paradox is a statement that is self contradictory because it often contains two statements that are both true, but in general, cannot both be true at the same time. In the aforementioned example, can someone be both a compulsive liar yet telling the truth at the same time?
Caesar as a PARADOX:
1. A great general
2. Charismatic in politics
3. Decisive in his judgements
4. Sharp in his evaluations of men
(However/ Paradoxically)
1. He is deaf in one ear
2. Prone to fevers and epilepsy
3. Unable to compete with Cassius by swimming in the Tiber River fully armed
4. Afflicted with a sterile marriage
5. He professes to fear nothing yet is extremely superstitious
6. He thinks he is above flattery, yet he is especially vulnerable to it.
All of this is a paradox because he had aspirations to be above MORTAL weakness
Brutus is a PARADOX
1.1. Strengths different- weaknesses similar
A. Truly noble Roman from an ancient family whose glory it had been to defend the personal liberties of Rome (Roman Tradition)
B. Good rapport with courageous and noble wife
C. Genuinely kind to servants
D. Trustworthy in friendship
E. Finds Caesar's ambition for power distasteful and vulgar
**Brutus's "Hubris" is pride of family and country -- on these he is vulnerable to flattery even though he too, feels that he is above it.

EXAMPLE: MLA FORMAT
CITING A LONG AND SHORT QUOTE
Mark Antony uses many forms of rhetoric when he addresses the Roman people concerning Caesar’s funeral when he states:
Friends, Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears;
I come to bury Caesar, not to praise him.
The evil that men do lives after them;
The good is oft interred with their bones;
So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus
Hath told you Caesar was ambitious:
If it were so, it was a grievous fault,
And grievously hath Caesar answer’d it. (Shakespeare, Act 2, 3, 78-85) (quote more than 4 lines ex)
He continues to use the refrain, “For Brutus is an honourable man; So are they all, all honourable men” (Shakespeare, Act 2, 3, 67-68). (short quote ex)
