• In Brutus’s speech, he only used ethics. Examples: 1. “For mine honour, and have respect to mine honour”: He uses the word “honor” a few times. This refers to the ethics of community. He hopes that the crowd will consider honor to be the most important quality in a person. 2. “Not that I loved Caesar less, but that I loved Rome more”: He uses ethics by pointing out that he is will be loyal to Rome before he will be loyal to his closest friend (Caesar), He tries to impress the crowd of Romans. 3. “Who here so vile that will not love his country?”: He uses ethics by suggesting that anyone who opposes Caesars assassination must also oppose Rome and therefore hate their country.

Brutus used brotherly speech and mannerisms to win people over as his appeal to emotion

Brutus only wishes to express his reasoning. Brutus does not attempt to persuade the crowd; instead, he actually announces he will kill himself if they wish it. However, his honesty and his reasoning do have an effect on the audience. Unfortunately, the quite miss Brutus' point... he tries to explain that he loves Rome too much to have it surrended to a tyrant, and yet the crowd is willing to make him one when he is done speaking
