In the play The Tragedy of Julius Caesar he was betrayed by those he thought he could of trusted. Caesar died when he was stabbed to death by the conspirators one of who was named Brutus. Caesar also knew a person named Mark Antony who was a great friend of his. Both of these peole made speeches at Caesar's funeral. They were almost on the same page of what they were taking about, but not quite there.
In Brutus speech that was given that day of the funeral he talks about that goods things that will start to happen now that Caesar has died.

Antony's speech was more personal than it was when Brutus was speaking. Antony's opening to his speech was more approchable than it was when Brutus had open. He starts off with "I come here to bury Caesar, not to praise him." Although he starts off with that Antony does nothing but praise him. He than says, "I speak not to disprove what Brutus spoke, but here I am to speak what I do know." What Antony does know is that was Brutus has done was nothing more than to make sure that Caesar does not get the crown and named King of Rome. Antony kept repeating that Brutus was an "ambitious" meaning that he was contradicting what Brutus had just said.

Mark Antony's speech was more persuasive because he made points to contrast what Brutus said in his speech about Caesar. He said Brutus was wrong for what he did. Brutus also had said "would you rather Caesar was living and die all slaves.." which was countered by Antony. It was countered by Antony saying that Caesar felt deeply for his people, and was kindhearted in the things he has done so far for
