Read the excerpt from act 3, scene 2, of Julius Caesar.

English
1 answer:
Rom4ik [11]3 years ago
3 0

The following is the best summary of this passage: "Brutus asks if he has offended anyone, and they say no. He then asserts that he has not done anything to Caesar that the people would not do to him, and that Caesar’s triumphs have not been downplayed, nor have his crimes been exaggerated. As Antony enters with Caesar’s body, Brutus says that Antony had no part in killing Caesar, but will benefit from his death, just as all the people will. Finally, he says that he killed his best friend for the good of Rome, and he expects the people to do the same to him if Rome will benefit."

What makes it a good summary is that it brings out the main ideas of the text and restates them shortly and cleary:

  • Brutus has indeed not gone against the will of the people by murdering Caesar: "none have I offended;"
  • Brutus acknowledges the fact that he removed a ruler for the people and that he expects the same people to remove him as well if they deem it beneficial: "I have done no more to Caesar than you shall do to Brutus" and "I have the same dagger for myself, when it shall please my country to need my death;"
  • Brutus wants to be fair by alluding to both Caesar's exploits and his failures: "his glory not extenuated, ... nor his offences enforced;"
  • he also said that Antony was not guilty of Caesar's murder but that it is still advantageous for him: "though he had no hand in his death, shall receive the benefit of his dying;"
  • finally, Brutus believes that his deed was a sacrifice in the interest of Rome: "I slew my best lover for the good of Rome."

Please help!!

My favorite memory is when my father was completing his work Objective by Evaluating the Synthesis of chemical compounds and Modifying them, to create an experiment with Independent and Dependent variables. I had come into his office to work on English homework. I was working on Clauses. When I asked my Dad what he was mumbling about he said that the compounds were Indivisible, and that he needed to Eradicate one of the variables, and that the Eradication of one of the variables was Imperative to how well the experiment went. This is my favorite memory because we got to work together.

P.S you can use this as your own if you'd like.
