Throughout The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Mark Antony shows and undying love for Caesar. In this drama, written by William Shakespeare, the story of the assassination of Julius is told, and Antony is, without doubt, Caesar’s most loyal and dedicated admirer.

In the play The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, Brutus is the one character in the entirety of the play who does intend to double-cross anyone, much like the seemingly trustworthy Mark Antony, and he does not have hidden reasons for engaging in the plot to murder Caesar, as Cassius does.

This proves her strategic mindset as “she was well aware of the significance of her relationships with male leaders, hence her relationships with Julius Caesar and Marc Antony” (Harold et al).
