And what he does is what’s best for himself and his people. He thinks ahead of what he is doing at the moment so that he can see what the effect of what he is about to do later. And that is why in my opinion Caesar is the noblest Roman of all of the Romans he is smart with what he does and he obviously cares about his people. He is not a force to be reckoned with because he is very powerful and will destroy anyone in his path of
A new religion was created by Henry VIII, called Protestant. This authorized people to divorce if they were unhappy about their marriage. This made all the pope, monks and priests very irritated and angry. Henry’s hunger for power slowly increased; he wanted to dissolve the monasteries as he felt strongly about controlling the church his way. Although Henry was king of England, he thought that the pope might have more control over the people in England.
Initially, Brutus was a man for the people who did what he believed was necessary. Cassius had forced Brutus into thinking that Caesar was in fact ambitious, Brutus believed him and thought that by murdering Caesar, it would save the lives of the Roman people in the long run. Whereas many of the conspirators killed Caesar because they feared the possibility of him becoming too powerful, Brutus killed him so the people could someday live freely. Brutus loved Caesar dearly, in yet he still had the Roman people in his heart as his first priority. Additionally, Brutus died for his people.
The legacies that were promised to the people in Tiberius’ will were honoured, lavish games were staged for the people of Rome and on top of this, unpopular sales tax were removed. All was going well for Caligula and the people of Rome, however following his recovery from a serious illness, any previous notions of respect or cooperation with the senate completely evaporated. Caligula seemed to have taken the idea of his divinity seriously and expected to be treated duly. He no longer sought to work with the senate but rather ruled as an absolute monarch and expected to be worshipped as a god. “…What emerges clearly from the sources is that while he was not clinically mad he was obsessed with a sense of his own importance as to be practically devoid of any senses of moral responsibility.” –Barrett.
Henry needed the money for power so that he could then build a stronger army and fight more wars. This would then show that he was a powerful king. Money is not the most important reason but it is an important reason. Another reason he broke from the Roman Church is because he wanted power and control over his people. Henry wanted to make sure that he was in total control of England so he needed to get rid of anyone that might threaten his position including the pope.
He uses his high ranking status to gain his credibility as an honorable man. He asks them to “believe me for mine honor” and to “have respect to mine honor.” He does this in order to make what he says afterward sound more believable. This works well in gaining him some credibility and believability. Brutus then moves to talking about how much love he had for Caesar. He appeals to their emotions by saying that his love to Caesar was no less than that of any dear friend of Caesar’s and that he did this “not that I loved Caesar less but that I loved Rome more.
Augustus had an exceptional public image; the citizens of Rome had great respect and admiration for him and held him in the highest of esteems. The aims and methods which he employed to gain this public image reveal that he was tactful, however occasionally underhand. His public image was developed through a long, slow process which consisted of some sidestepping and backtracking but above all, constant vigilance . As the restorer of the republic Augustus had a huge task ahead of him, but he took on the responsibility and set out to make others believe that he was the right man for the job. Through restoring the republic and bringing peace to the empire, reorganisation of the army, his building reforms and successful use of propaganda, his
His job is to have people pay him indulgences to have God forgive them for their sins. He made a living out of charging sinners and making them believe God would appreciate their sacrifices and they will have entrance to heaven. The pardoner was paid by the church to receive these indulgences, since it gained money for the church. People believed that being “charitable” and giving money to the church would make their sins be forgiven. He took advantage for naïve believers who felt bad about their sins, and believed anything they heard about God forgiving them.
When Anthony came up, he knew that he had to work harder to gain the crowd’s attention, so he begins with saying, “I come to bury Caesar, not praise him.” (Act 3 Scene 2; 72) He says this because he knows people don’t want to hear a speech about how “amazing” Caesar was, so he says he’s not there to praise him. In saying this, he gets people’s attention. Both start off with trying to get their credibility first, Antony wins in doing a better job because he worked harder in trying to get it. Pathos, the emotional appeal, is used most in both their speeches. Brutus asked rhetorical questions to try and stir up emotion in the crowd, “who is here so rude would not be a Roman?” (Act 3, Scene 2; 29) In asking these questions he knows people will begin to think about what he has to say.
I. painted beautifully when he had his color vision, but when he lost it his work only became better. Why? Because anyone with talent and with color vision could paint the way he did, but with Mr. I.’s lost came a personal gain. His new paintings, while lacking in color of course stood out because it was different, you could now see the world through his eyes. Mr.
