Question

What is the best summary of this monologue? Antony incites anger in the people by displaying and reading Caesar’s will to show how rich Caesar has become as the leader of Rome. Antony suggests that the people go to Caesar’s body to collect relics that they can pass down to their younger family members. Antony displays Caesar’s will and says that if the people read it, they would worship Caesar so much that they would want something from him to worship as a relic. Antony has Caesar’s will, but does not read it to the crowd, because further evidence of Caesar’s generosity would upset the people even more.

Answer 1

'Antony displays Caesar's will and says that if the people read it', 'they would worship 'Caesar' so much that they would want something from him to worship as a relic' is the best summary of this monologue.

EXPLANATION:  

• The play 'Julius Caesar' is written by 'William Shakespeare' and it tells the 'story of Caesar' and the betrayal by one of his best friends, Marcus Brutus, and how Mark Antony finally avenged his death. Antony gave his 'monologue' to the 'people of Rome' when the conspirators had already killed Caesar.
• Before Antony gave his monologue, Brutus gave a speech to the people of Rome in which he justified the killing of Caesar, and said that he had become ambitious, the crowd believed him, and was filled with anger for Caesar. But after him Antony gave his monologue, in which he was successful in filling the hearts of people of Rome with sympathy for Caesar, and anger for conspirators.
• While giving the monologue, he said that he had Caesar's will in which he had given all that he had to the people of Rome. On hearing this, the people were so full of sympathy that all of them wanted something belonging to Caesar so that they can worship that as relic.
