contrary, Glaucon says that the ‘just’ man is not truly ‘just’ he seems to be good. The ‘just’ man, according to Glaucon, is the noble and simple man; who receives honour and rewards for his nobility.

Any effective argument is guaranteed to have some form of rhetoric in order to push the persuasive agenda of the author. One such example of this is in Brutus’ speech after Julius Caesar’s death when he expressed his thoughts toward Caesar, but in doing so induced slight logical fallacies.

He stresses this point…

superior than anyone else and so did his honour. These are the two characteristics that has clouded Brutus’s judgement to how things were being done and the reasons behind it. An example could be the Hadrian’s Wall which was a defensive frontier that had stretched out around their area, protecting them from enemy attack. This was thought of by Ceasar. Brutus had chosen not to listen to everyone else around him and had seen no fault in the way he understood things. Honour had played an important…

to them not to be so nervous and to fight for your country. I will be writing three ways he talk to the people and made them feel equal. “If we are mark’d die, we are now to do our country loss: and if to leave the few men, the greater share of honour.” What he is trying to say is that if we were marked to die on this day in this battle then be prepared to die.
