Answer 1

It emphasizes the savagery of the assassins’ actions toward Caesar. This is how Shakespeare’s use of the word slaughter rather than murder affect the meaning of the passage.

The word slaughter shows much more "rude" effect than the word murder. So, Shakespeare used this slaughter word so that readers can feel the brutality with which Caesar was killed.

Not only because he was stabbed several times, but also because one of the people who killed him was Brutus and also his death was agreed by a plot, not by something that Caesar has done.

Hence, the correct answer is Option C -It emphasizes the savagery of the assassins' actions toward Caesar.
