Read the statement below then decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be prepared to support your opinion with details from the story. Here's your discussion

prompt:

Obviously the characters in Shakespeare's play find Mark

Antony's speech really convincing, but Shakespeare wrote the

play so that they would. But if you were to remove the easily

swayed audience and replace it with a more objective audience,

Mark Antony's speech would still stand up as a convincing work

of rhetoric.

I agree with the statement.

Explanation:

Marco Antonio's speech is loaded with rhetorical resources. He uses ethos, logos and pathos in a masterful way, acting ethically, reaching the audience's emotional and showing logic in his words. A speech with this type of structure would be able to convince any audience, even the most difficult and intellectual. This is one of the reasons that make "The Tragedy of Julio Cesar" one of the most relevant works of Shakespeare until today.

The most influential point in this speech is the way in which Marco Antonio ennobles Julio César, showing the population how he carried himself with the people he ruled and that all his deeds were done to magnify the people.
