"Julius Caesar" Act 3 Scene 2

Brutus uses pathos, ethos, and logos throughout his speech. He tends to use ethos and pathos the most. Brutus claims that he killed Caesar because he loved Rome more than he loved Caesar.

"Not that I loved Caesar less, but I loved Rome more."

Brutus is using pathos in this quote to appeal to the crowd's emotions. He states that he still cared for Caesar ,but Caesar was too ambitious. Brutus knows that the crowd views him as "noble" and sees him as very formal. He uses his credibility to get the crowd to come on over and side with him.

Antony on the other hand, uses both logos and pathos more. He also used suspense in his eulogy like speech. For example, when he mentions Caesar's will, he would pause repeatedly. This is what kept the crowd excited and wanting more. He exhibits pathos when he began crying while speaking. I think the pathos actually won the crowd over. Antony used sarcasm too. He states that he only wanted to bury Caesar and not praise him. He also used it to contradict the meaning of "Noble Brutus".
