Question

How did Mark Antony win over the public of Rome to his side?

Answer 1

Mark Antony flatters the hearts of people of Rome in the side of Caesar. He refers the conspirators as honorable men which is an irony. He tells the people of Rome that Caesar is not ambitious and Caesar has always worked to the welfare of the people of Rome. And at last he totally instigates the mob by telling the will of Caesar which makes the people of Rome angry against conspirators. He arouses sympathy for Caesar by detailing on how he was stabbed, his conquests, glories, love for the people. He proved Brutus and the conspirators wrong.
