Short Answer:
15. "The Tragedy of Julius Caesar" and "The Choice" address a similar topic related to the
power of rhetoric in the political arena. Write a well-developed paragraph analyzing how both
dramas treat this topic. Use evidence from both dramas to support your response.

Answer:

Rhetoric is the study and practice of persuasion. To inform, educate, persuade, or motivate specific audiences.

Persuasion and rhetoric play an important role in many events and outcomes in William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar. In fact, Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, about the assassination of the great Roman leader, is frequently used as a textbook on rhetoric. Brutus and Mark Antony's dueling speeches in Act III, Scene 2 are classic examples of various rhetorical appeals and devices. Brutus' speech, in which he urges people to put aside their emotions and consider what is best for Rome, uses logos, while Antony's emotional tribute to his friend uses pathos. Both speeches use parallelism and repetition to make their points stick in the listeners' minds. Brutus speaks first, followed by Antony, each trying to sway the crowd. It's a great way to see how words can move people, change their minds, and inspire action. Brutus addresses the populace in prose rather than verse, presumably to keep his speech simple and on the level of the plebeians. He quickly persuades the people that Caesar had to die or he would become a tyrant and cause them all pain. He wishes to convey that this message is from a concerned Roman citizen, not a greedy usurper. This is a masterful speech by Antony. The phrase "Brutus says he was ambitious, / And Brutus is an honourable man" accrues new levels of sarcasm with each repetition. Affirming Caesar's wealth, sympathy for the poor, and refusal to accept the throne when offered, Antony disproves Brutus' accusation of ambition. He makes the plebeians pity him and his case by openly weeping in front of them.

In contrast, "The Choice" contrasts riches and rags, depending on the speakers' choice. To choose between two options, both of which may lead to happiness, but for how long, is the power of rhetoric felt in the poem. "Houses of marble, and billowing farms, Pearls to trickle between my hands, / Smoldering rubies to circle my arms" are examples of figures of speech and imagery used to help readers visualize the scene. Houses of marble, and billowing farms, Pearls, to trickle between my hands, / Smoldering rubies, to circle my arms". The line, "you'd only a lilting song, / Only a melody, happy and high". The writer evokes emotions by telling her story of love and her choices. The ethos-driven lesson or message relies on the author's reputation. He chose simplicity over grandiosity and money. Her love isn't materialistic. But she wonders if her choice was correct.

Back in the 15th century in Nuremberg, lived a family with eighteen children. Eighteen!
Despite their seemingly hopeless financial condition, two of them had a dream. They both wanted to pursue their talent for art, but they knew very well that their father would not be able to send either of them to Nuremberg to study at the Academy.
After many long discussions the two boys, Albert and Albrecht, finally worked out a pact. They would toss a coin. The loser would go down into the nearby mines and with his earnings, support his brother while the winner would attend the Academy. And, when that brother who won the toss completed his studies, in four years, he would support the other brother at the Academy, either with sales of his art work or, if necessary, also by labouring in the mines.
They tossed a coin on a Sunday morning after church. Albrecht Durer won the toss and went off to the Academy. Albert went down into the dangerous mines and for the next four years financed his brother, whose works at the Academy were almost an immediate sensation. Albrecht’s etchings, his wood cuts and his oils were far better than most of his professors. And by the time he graduated, he was beginning to earn a considerable sum for his commissioned works.
When the young artist returned to his village, the Durer family held a festive dinner at their lawn to celebrate Albrecht’s triumphant homecoming. After a long and memorable meal, punctuated with music and laughter, Albrecht rose from his honoured position at the head of the table to drink a toast to his beloved brother for the years of sacrifice that had enabled him to fulfil his ambition. His closing words were, “And now, Albert, blessed brother of mine, now it is your turn. Now, you can go to Nuremberg to pursue your dream, and I’ll take care of you.”
All heads turned in eager expectation to the far end of the table where Albert sat, tears streaming down his pale face, shaking his lowered head from side to side while he sobbed and repeated, over and over, “No…..no…….no……no…….”
Finally, Albert rose and wiped the tears from his cheeks. He glanced down the long table at the face he loved, and then holding his hands close to his right cheek, he said softly, “No brother I cannot go to Nuremberg. It is too late for me. Look…. Look what 4 years in the mines have done to my hands! The bones in every finger have been smashed atleast once and lately I have been suffering from arthritis so badly in my right hand that \I cannot even hold a glass to return your toast, much less make delicate lines on parchment or canvas with a pen or a brush. No, brother …… for me it is too late”
To pay homage to Albert for all that he had sacrificed, Albrecht Durer painstakingly drew his brother’s abused hands with palms together and thin fingers stretched skywards. He called his powerful drawings simply ‘hands’, but more than 450 years later the entire world almost immediately opened their hearts to his great masterpiece and renamed his tribute of love, ‘The Praying hands’.
