1 Julius Caesar Act 5 Marcus Brutus Character
2 Plot Which line of the entire play do you think is the climax? Et tu, Brute? Then fall, Caesar! WHY?!
3 Brutus Importance to the Plot The play reaches its climax when the conspirators murder Caesar. However, of all the conspirators, Caesar singles out Brutus as the one whose betrayal shocks him the most. Key Question: Why is Brutus choice the most significant out of all the conspirators?
4 Brutus Importance to the Plot Caesar thought that he was immortal. It is thus ironic that the wound which killed him was inflicted by his most trusted friend Brutus. Brutus betrayal of Caesar symbolises the breakdown of human relationships that bond society and unify a nation. True enough, Brutus decision to overthrow Caesar results in civil war and gives Antony s Triumvirate the chance to take over control.
5 Analysing Brutus Character Antony s eulogy of Brutus in Act 5 Scene 5 (68-75) This was the noblest Roman of them all. All the conspirators save only he Did that they did in envy of great Caesar; He only, in a general honest thought And common good to all, made one of them. His life was gentle, and the elements So mixed in him that Nature might stand up And say to all the world, This was a man.

All the conspirators save only he Did that they did in envy of great Caesar; He only, in a general honest thought And common good to all, made one of them. His life was gentle, and the elements So mixed in him that Nature might stand up And say to all the world, This was a man. He was honest and did what he did for the common good His qualities were wellbalanced
9 Analysing Brutus Character Food for Thought: How would you judge Brutus character based on these two key episodes in the play? Key Question: Based on his personal qualities, do you think Brutus was noble or naive? Pen down your topic statements for both arguments
10 Do you agree that Brutus was the noblest Roman of them all?
11 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus was HONOURABLE If it be aught toward the general good, Set honour in one eye and death i th other, And I will look on both indifferently; For let the gods so speed me as I love The name of honour more than I fear death. ( )
12 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus was HONOURABLE Brutus fears Caesar s power not out of envy, but out of a genuine concern that Caesar may be overly ambitious. His innate sense of honour required that he remove Caesar before his ambition corrupted him (or so he thought!)
13 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus was HONOURABLE There is no terror, Cassius, in your threats; For I am armed so strong in honesty That they pass by me as the idle wind, Which I respect not. ( )
14 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus was HONOURABLE Brutus always does what is honourable, even if he could have benefited more otherwise. This aspect of his character has remained constant from Act 1 to Act 4.
15 Brutus was NAIVE But he was too EASILY MANIPULATED. Well, Brutus, thou art noble; yet I see Thy honourable mettle may be wrought From that it is disposed. ( )
16 Brutus was NAIVE But he was too EASILY MANIPULATED. Cassius knew that he could easily manipulate Brutus into joining his plot by presenting the murder as an act of justice done for the Romans. Unsurprisingly, Brutus fell for the bait completely as a result of his obsession with doing honourable deeds, which Cassius recognised and used to his advantage.
17 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus made RATIONAL decisions It must be by his death; and for my part, I know no personal cause to spurn at him, But for the general. ( )
18 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus made RATIONAL decisions Act 2 Scene 1 begins by showing Brutus providing rational reasons for killing Caesar. He clearly states that he has no personal vendetta against Caesar. Then he uses logical language to demonstrate his line of thought: But tis a common proof (2.1.21); So Caesar may; Then lest he may, prevent ( ), etc. His murder of Caesar was not a crime of passion. (Although one might call it a crime of poor logic!)
19 Brutus was NAIVE But he OVERTHOUGHT the danger posed by Caesar to Rome. Between the acting of a dreadful thing And the first motion, all the interim is Like a phantasma, or a hideous dream. The genius and the mortal instruments Are then in council; and the state of man, Like to a little kingdom, suffers then The nature of an insurrection. ( )
20 Brutus was NAIVE But he OVERTHOUGHT the danger posed by Caesar to Rome. Here, Brutus describes the inner turmoil going on in his mind as he struggles to decide whether to kill Caesar or not. He uses the metaphor of a civil war to describe his mental state, which is ironic as it foreshadows the actual civil war that will be caused by his assassination of Caesar. All this is ultimately the result of his flawed judgement and over-thinking of Caesar s ambition.
21 Brutus was NOBLE Brutus was STOIC. Cassius. Of your philosophy you make no use, If you give place to accidental evils. Brutus. ( ) No man bears sorrow better. Portia is dead.
22 PHILOSOPHY??? Brutus was STOIC. Stoicism was an ancient Greek philosophy which stated that a virtuous person must bear suffering without complaining or becoming emotional. Brutus stoic response to the news of his wife s death (and also the death of his close friend Cassius later in Act 5) demonstrates his virtue through his immense selfcontrol.
23 Brutus was NAIVE Brutus was UNWISE. On letting Mark Antony address the crowd: Brutus. It shall advantage us more than do us wrong. Cassius. I know not what may fall; I like it not. ( )
24 Brutus was UNWISE. Brutus was NAIVE Brutus was overconfident of his abilities to assess situations and respond accordingly. As a result, he let Antony turn the tables against him just after he d won the crowd s support. Marcus Brutus: Causing facepalms since 44BC
25 Brutus was CARING. Brutus was NOBLE Portia what mean you? Wherefore rise you now? It is not for your health thus to commit Your weak condition to the raw cold morning. ( ) Gentle knave, good night; I will not do thee so much wrong to wake thee. If thou dost nod, thou break st thy instrument; I ll take it from thee; and, good boy, good night ( )
26 Brutus was NOBLE Even though Brutus possessed power as the praetor (a magistrate), he treated others around him with kindness. In Act 2, he shows his concern for his wife s health. In Act 4, he cares for Lucius by letting him sleep even though he is merely a servant boy (who has fallen asleep halfway through performing his duty!) These two incidents present Brutus caring and gentle nature.
27 Brutus was NAIVE Brutus was MYOPIC. On Brutus decision to go out to meet Antony s army: Cassius. Flatterers? Now Brutus thank yourself; This tongue had not offended so today, If Cassius might have ruled. ( )
28 Brutus was MYOPIC. Brutus was NAIVE Brutus decided to do things his way instead of listening to the tactical advice given by Cassius, who was the better strategist. He was unable to foresee the longterm consequences of his decisions, which ultimately led to his defeat. Facepalm: The Sequel
29 Act 5 in Review: Brutus the Tragic Hero Imagine if you were Brutus at this point. How would you react, knowing that you were highly likely to lose the war? Would you throw down your weapons and give up, or continue fighting?
30 Act 5 in Review: Brutus the Tragic Hero As expected from Brutus commitment to honour, he scorns the thought of committing suicide before the battle as an act of cowardice: But I do find it cowardly and vile, For fear of what might fall, so to prevent The time of life. ( )
31 Act 5 in Review: Brutus the Tragic Hero However, he also hints that he would take his life if he lost the war: Think not, thou noble Roman, / That ever Brutus will go bound to Rome ( ) i.e. he refuses to be taken captive by the Triumvirate. But hang on, didn t he just say that committing suicide was a cowardly act? He seems to have valued his honour to the extent of contradicting himself! Here, we see how his honour, supposedly his greatest strength, was also his flaw.
32 Brutus as a Tragic Hero: The Unbearable Weight of Grief Brutus is a character who has had to deal with the loss of multiple loved ones throughout the play: - He had to kill his close friend Caesar for what he thought was the nation s interests - His wife Portia committed suicide by swallowing burning coals - His close friend Cassius committed suicide in battle Yet he suffered all these heavy blows without so much as shedding a single tear! Why do you think this was the case? It is in line with his stoic nature that he refuses to let his emotions get the better of him
33 Clitus. Brutus as a Tragic Hero: The Unbearable Weight of Grief Now is that noble vessel full of grief, That it runs over even at his eyes. What is Brutus doing? Why do you think Shakespeare made Clitus the one who said these lines? He is weeping uncontrollably for all the losses he has suffered. By having Clitus make this observation, Shakespeare reminds us that even when weeping out of grief, Brutus manages to maintain some self-control instead of bursting in a fit of passion. This elicits our sympathy for him, an effect which is immediately reinforced by his suicide and by Antony s eulogy of him which ends the play.
