No one knows exactly how the assassination was done in history, but in the play written by William Shakespeare, Brutus was able to maneuver Cassius in such a way as to take control of the group. Cassius didn't intend to let it happen, but Brutus did plan the strategy and make most of the important decisions.

What might have influenced Cassius to accept pindarus report?

Cassius has had a complete character shift since the beginning of the play. Previously, he was bold, defiant of the gods and omens, and confident he knew what was right for Rome. In Act Four, the reader can see that Cassius's boldness and bravery are wavering. He resorts to tactics like guilt and pity to make Brutus feel sorry for him when they are fighting He is no longer convincing Brutus to follow him, but begging Brutus to like him and allow him to be his equal. Cassius also doesn't agree with Brutus' plan to march to Philippi. Cassius would rather wait for the opposing army to meet them in Sardis. Again, Cassius is overruled by Brutus. In the beginning of Act Five, Cassius is anxious and nervous regarding the battle. He has seen scavenger birds (like vultures) replace eagles, and he takes this as a bad omen. He and Brutus also say goodbye, in case they never meet again. Cassius is in utter defeat when he receives Pindarus's report. Men have deserted him and even his flag bearer was killed. In such a negative state of mind, it only makes sense that Cassius takes Pindarus' report as truth. It also gives Cassius a reason to give up (commit suicide) without looking cowardly. Since he feels the entire battle is lost, he would rather kill himself than be taken as a slave by Antony and Octavius.


Why restrictions does Brutus place on Antony when he allows him to speak at the funeral?

Brutus believes that Antony is the same kind of person he is; a man who can be trusted to keep his word and act honourably. While Antony is suggesting that Brutus is dishonourable by calling him honourable, he himself is acting dishonourably by breaking the spirit of his promise to Brutus. Irony upon irony!

What is the effect of Cassius' belief that he is doomed to die?

Initially, Cassius interpreted negative omens as being aimed at Caesar and the weak Romans who would allow him to be King rather than an indicator that their plans would run awry. However, when he observed the replacement of the two great eagles that had more or less been their armyâ??s mascots replaced by â??dark birdsâ?? like crows, kites and ravens, he accepted this as an omen that he and Brutus (the two great eagles) would fall to the dark forces of Antony and Octavius ( crows, kites, ravens). He remained true to his belief that what he and Brutus did was for the good of Rome and that they remained noble.

Presumably you mean Lucius Junius Brutus, who led the rebellion against the last king and was the architect of the foundation of the Republic. He is not known for having proposed any laws.

He got the Roman people to swear an oath that they would never allow any man to become a king.
