Was Brutus Honorable?

Heather Butler 5 Paragraph Essay March 13, 2001

Being ambitious is usually a good trait to have. But some people pursue malicious ambitions. In fact, in some cases it can have a person killed. That deception is demonstrated in the play Julius Caesar, written by William Shakespeare. In Caesar’s case, being the ambitious ruler of Rome was a dangerous situation which proved fatal. His ambition had him murdered by the people under his very rule. Marcus Brutus saw through his best friend and saw how his ambition could tear Rome to shreds. Brutus needed to participate in the execution of Caesar for the freedom of Rome.

The Soothsayer warned Caesar that there was danger to come for him on the Ides of March, but he didn’t listen. “ Brutus had rather be a villager Than to repute himself a son of Rome under there hard conditions as this time Is like to lay upon us.

Brutus saw through Caesars good to what could develop in the future. He did not care whether he profited from it or not. He would be crown’d: How might that change his nature, there’s the question.

Furthermore, Brutus knew Caesar well.
