In at least two to three sentences, where you analyze the tone the character Marullus uses to express his interpretation of Caesar's return. Then explain how this is similar or different from the interpretation the painter has depicted? Use specific examples to support your observations. Use proper spelling and grammar.

I haven't read it either, sorry.

e.mccormick · Answer

First, do you knw what tone is?

anonymous · Answer

The attitude of the character right?

e.mccormick · Answer

That is part of it. Here is a really good example of it applied: http://literarydevices.net/tone/ What is being said in both lines is effecivly the same information wise. But the tone is very different.

anonymous · Answer

That makes sense

anonymous · Answer

@e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

OK, so, what do you think the tone of Marullus is in the picture?

anonymous · Answer

Well he doesnt really look happy @e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

Hmmm... Well, on the sign he is holding it says Veni, vidi, vici. One of the few Latin phrases I know. It means I came, I saw, I conquered. If we look at The Triumph Of Julius Caesar, Plate 9, bu Andreani and Andrea a little closer: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/e/ee/Triunphus_Caesaris_plate_9_-_Andreani.jpg Well, he seems to be bowing a little as he holds up a sign using Caesar's on quote to complement him. So perhaps a little submissive and appreciative in tone.

e.mccormick · Answer

Rosy cheeks, no frown, holding up a sign of Caesar, and surrounded by cherubs.  That is the painting.  But how about the play?

What happens to Flavius and Murellus in the play?  How do they act towards Caesar?

anonymous · Answer

Flavius is against Caesar

anonymous · Answer

@e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

Yes, and in the opening he is with Murellus.  There are some people, cobblers, that are there to cheer Caesar.  But what does Murellus say?

MARULLUS

    Wherefore rejoice? What conquest brings he home?
    What tributaries follow him to Rome,
    To grace in captive bonds his chariot-wheels?
    You blocks, you stones, you worse than senseless things!
    O you hard hearts, you cruel men of Rome,
    Knew you not Pompey? Many a time and oft
    Have you climb'd up to walls and battlements,
    To towers and windows, yea, to chimney-tops,
    Your infants in your arms, and there have sat
    The livelong day, with patient expectation,
    To see great Pompey pass the streets of Rome:
    And when you saw his chariot but appear,
    Have you not made an universal shout,
    That Tiber trembled underneath her banks,
    To hear the replication of your sounds
    Made in her concave shores?
    And do you now put on your best attire?
    And do you now cull out a holiday?
    And do you now strew flowers in his way
    That comes in triumph over Pompey's blood? Be gone!
    Run to your houses, fall upon your knees,
    Pray to the gods to intermit the plague
    That needs must light on this ingratitude.

Soes that sound at all supportive of Caesar?

anonymous · Answer

No it does not @e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

So I would use how they act in times like that in the play vs. the image to contrast the two.

anonymous · Answer

For the three sentences @e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

Well, Murellus is only at the start and then there is the report by Casca that Marullus and Flavius were put to death for disrobing statues of Caesar.  So you can use one line to describe the tone in the picure, one the tone in the play, and a third to say how these are different. And it says at least, so if you need 4 or 5, you can do so.

anonymous · Answer

Could you give me an example on what to start off with? @e.mccormick

e.mccormick · Answer

I already have.  I have talked about how he looks in the picture and the meaning of the standard he caries.  That is a good place to start.

anonymous · Answer

Okay thank-You friend :) @e.mccormick I have an idea what to write now.

e.mccormick · Answer

The first couple paragraps here describe why "veni, vidi, vici" is a pro-Caesar saying on the banner: http://curiosity.discovery.com/question/caesar-said-veni-vidi-vici Basically, it is pointing out a famous quote of Caesar's sucessful conquest.
