Why is Caesar upset after he is offered the crown? |
[Edit] |
He is not upset. He's being coy to show that he's reluctant to accept it, when in reality it is exactly what he wants. If he's too eager, he'll confirm the suspicions of Cassius et al and they would be able to raise enough public ire to successfully oppose him.
It's better for him to play his cards close to his chest at this point and wait for his position to be stronger before making an overt power grab.
