MARK ANTONY [adresses the crowd as he stands on stage] Friends , Romans, countrymen, lend me your ears; I come to bury Caesar, n
ot to praise him. The evil that men do lives after them; The good is oft interred with their bones; So let it be with Caesar. The noble Brutus Hath told you Caesar was ambitious: If it were so, it was a grievous fault, And grievously hath Caesar answer’d it. Here, under leave of Brutus and the rest— For Brutus is an honorable man; So are they all, all honorable men— Come I to speak in Caesar’s funeral. He was my friend, faithful and just to me. In this speech, Marc Antony is speaking to the characters (the crowd) in the play allowing him to share his ideas with them while they listen. What MOST LIKELY motivated Shakespeare to deliver this type of speech? Question 5 options: His monologue allows him to share his ideas to the crowd without interruption. His monologue allows him to share his innermost feelings. His monologue prevents him from interrupting other characters while they are having an aside during the speech. His soliloquy allows him to share his ideas to the crowd without interruption.
The correct answer is “A. His monologue allows him to share
his ideas to the crowd without interruption.”
This speech where Marc Antony is speaking to the crowd is an
important one because of the information being presented, both, to the crowd
and readers/audience members. Because of
its importance, a good way to ensure the most is taken from the speech is to
not have the speaker interrupted in order for the message to make the most impact. Thus, this is most likely what motivated
Shakespeare to have this information conveyed as a speech/monologue. (Note: We
know it is not a soliloquy because a soliloquy is where a character speaks only
to himself or herself.)
1.Honest, upright, and blunt-spoken, Proctor is a good man, but one with a secret, fatal flaw. His lust for Abigail Williams led to their affair (which occurs before the play begins), and created Abigail's jealousy of his wife, Elizabeth, which sets the entire witch hysteria in motion.
<span>My guess would be the one big-ticket item that determines the outcome of peoples lives would be money and the people they surround themselves with, It is not similar to what the Greeks thought because they were very religious, I do believe in fate because; there are some things that happen to us in which it is uncontrollable. </span>
