Answer 2

Go to Act 2 scene 1 where Brutus is in the orchard and says one of the most important soliloquies in the play - there you'll find your answer. I'm not going to write your essay for you though.
Brutus is in his orchard. It is night and he calls impatiently for his servant, Lucius, and sends him to light a candle in his study. When Lucius has gone, Brutus speaks one of the most important and controversial soliloquies in the play. He says that he has “no personal cause to spurn at” Caesar, except “for the general,” meaning that there are general reasons for the public good. Thus far, Caesar has seemingly been as virtuous as any other man, but Brutus fears that after he is “augmented” (crowned), his character will change, for it is in the nature of things that power produces tyranny. He therefore decides to agree to Caesar’s assassination: to “think him as a serpent’s egg, / Which, hatched, would as his kind, grow mischievous, / And kill him in the shell.”

This dramatic assassination occurred on the Ides of March (March 15th) in 44 BC and led to another Roman civil war.


A conservative by nature, Brutus never concealed his convictions. However, it is now believed that he was a strong nationalist, and a fierce supporter of friends along bloodlines. He married Porcia Catones who was his first cousin and a daughter of Cato, and wrote a text praising his deceased father-in-law's qualities. Caesar was very fond of him and respected his opinions. However, Brutus, like many other senators, was extremely unsatisfied with the state of the Republic. Caesar had been made dictator for life and approved legislation to concentrate power in his own hands. Brutus began to conspire against Caesar with his friend and brother-in-law Cassius and other men, calling themselves the Liberatores ("Liberators").*

Shortly before the assassination of Caesar, Brutus met with the conspirators and told them that, if anyone found out about the plan, they were going to turn their knives on themselves. On the Ides of March (March 15; see Roman calendar) of 44 BC, a group of senators called Caesar to the forum for the purpose of reading a petition, written by the senators, asking him to hand power back to the Senate. However, the petition was a fake. Mark Antony, learning of the plot, went to head Caesar off at the steps of the forum. However, the group of senators intercepted Caesar just as he was passing Pompey's Theater, and directed him to a room adjorning the east portio. As Caesar began to read the false petition, one of the senators, named Casca, pulled down Caesar's tunic and made a glancing thrust at the dictator's neck. Within moments, the entire group, including Brutus, were striking out at him. Caesar attempted to get away, but, blinded by blood, he tripped and fell; the men eventually murdering him as he lay, defenseless, on the lower steps of the portico.[citation needed] In Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, the dictator directed his famous last words at him: Et tu, Brute? or And [even] you, Brutus? Suetonius stated that Caesar said, in Greek, καὶ σύ, τέkνον; (transliterated as "Kaì sú, téknon?", that is Even you, my child?), translated in Latin as Tu quoque, Brute, fili mihi? (You, too, Brutus, my son?) (De Vita Caesarum, Liber I Divus Iulius, LXXXII). Shortly after the assassination, the senators left the building talking excitedly amongst themselves, and Brutus cried out to his beloved city: "People of Rome, we are once again free!"*

However, the city itself was against them, because most of the population loved Caesar dearly. Antony, a close friend of the dictator's, decided to make use of the circumstances and, on March 20 spoke angrily against the assassins during Caesar's funeral eulogy. Since Rome no longer saw them as saviors of the Republic and they faced treason charges, Brutus and his fellow conspirators fled to the East. In Athens, Brutus dedicated himself to the study of philosophy and, no less importantly, to the raising of funds to support an army in the coming war for power.*

Octavian and Antony marched their army toward Brutus and Cassius. After two engagements at the Battle of Philippi in 42 BC, during the first of which Cassius committed suicide, Brutus fled with his remaining forces. Seeing that defeat and capture was imminent, he committed suicide by falling on his sword. Eleven years later, Octavian waged a battle at Actium against Marc Antony and became the sole ruler of Rome. He accepted the surname Augustus.

Brutus was never actually proved to be guilty of conspiracy, though many people believe him to be

He died moments later.
