    Julius Caesar Flaws

    Killing Caesar was not a thoughtful decision, however it shows Brutus embodied the tragic flaw of pride. The flaw of pride originated when Brutus got too caught up in the conspiracy. When Cassius dropped off the letters forged by the Roman people to Brutus, the letters were planted to give pride and honor to Brutus. Cassius’s tactic flattered Brutus, as his pride was unstoppable. Brutus joined the conspiracy not because he “loved Caesar less, but loved Rome more” ( Shakespeare 151). He joins under the impression to prevent Caesar’s tyranny, to save the people Rome. Once allied into the conspiracy, his trust is gained towards the motive of the…

    Furthermore there is more to say that brutus embodied good. Why because the decision he had to make was a tough one. He dearly loved caesar and caesar loved him, Even after killing caesar and washing his hands with his blood. Brutus still felt responsible after his death and to the public. He feared that his friend would be crowned king which would go against the ideals of the roman republic. Brutus defends his actions’’ If there be any in this assembly, And dear friend of caesar's, to him i say that brutus love to caesar was no less than his.

    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.…

Brutus loves Rome so much that he believes the only way to keep the Empire alive and stable is that he must kill Caesar. Brutus is intellectual but only makes decisions that benefit him, making him seem greedy. When Brutus speaks to the crowd of Caesar’s death in act three scene two he states “Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I love Rome more. Had you rather Caesar were living and all die slaves, than that Caesar were dead, to live all free men ?”…

Instead of trusting the man who knew him the longest he had believed in the fake evidence that was given to him. Also, in that case he wanted the honor rather than the humanity being a crucial reason on why he had turned on his best friend.…

    Brutus was a devious man, even though what he thought he was doing was right. Brutus told his fellow conspirators to kill Caesar "boldly, but not angerly."(3.1.256-257) Brutus was one of Caesars right hand men, and yet Brutus kills his own friend. When Antony asks to speak at Caesars funeral, Cassius says no, but Brutus tell him that Antony will speak, but only what Brutus tells him to say. Brutus also embraces the fact that he just killed his friend, and also tells the senators who had just witnessed it to not be afraid, but to stay because ambition has paid its debt.…
