Q1
Brutus was an honorable man because he never lied, had a heart of gold, and the people can always count on him to do the honorable thing, like look out for rome.
Throughout Rome, Brutus is thought to be a wise and noble person. Do you agree? Which of Brutus’ actions so far support your opinion?
Question 2
1. In Act II scene I, Brutus overrides the opinions of the other conspirators on a few occasions. Choose one of those occasions and decide if his choice is wise. Defend your decision.
Question 3
People close to Caesar have definite opinions about him. Brutus, while he loves Caesar, fears that he will be crowned king, On page 779, lines 74-75, Flavius asks, “Who else would soar above the view of man,[a]nd keep us all in servile fearfulness?” On page 783, lines 135-36, Cassius states, “Why man, he doth bestride the world [l]ike a Colossus…” Based on what we see of Caesar in Act II, are these opinions founded? What leads you to your opinion?
