Write a rhetorical analysis of Antony’s funeral speech. Identify the persuasive devices that Antony uses and evaluate their effectiveness. Think about this as a prompt:
What is Marc Antony trying to persuade the crowd at Julius Caesar’s funeral to do or believe, and how does he achieve this?
Treat this speech like it was really a historical speech that was delivered in ancient Rome; trying to incorporate Shakespeare by name and the play title will only convolute your writing and distract you from focusing on the rhetorical strategy of Antony.
