Take out your copy of Brutus' speech and Antony's (unless I have it in which case I will give it to you).
Get a neo and answer the following constructed response in 4 paragraphs:
Brutus and Antony both make compelling speeches at Caesar's funeral, using persuasive elements and devices and their best rhetoric. Analyze each of their speeches. Be sure to recognize the persuasive devices and elements used in each using examples from the text. Then, in your conclusion determine whose speech was more effective and why.
