The story is introduced in Act I. Shakespeare writes in a manner in which the more educated or important characters speak in poetry, whereas the peasants speak in prose. The comedic mood is set with the announcement of the upcoming celebration. The commoners are introduced as pack animals that just follow any leader with an idea. The nobles are introduced as intelligent and sophisticated individuals with many varying ideas and mentalities. The nobles show little liking of Caesar. Their attitudes are meant to help set up the reader's view of Caesar for later in the play. In scene 2, Caesar and his friends bump into a soothsayer in the streets. The soothsayer is introduced to allude to later events in the plot. Most of the characters are presented directly. Shakespeare presents Brutus by showing Brutus sharing his feelings with Cassius. Brutus is a weakening character. Cassius holds firm opinions, which he puts freely on others. He is an influential

person upon Brutus. Mark Antony is shown as a deep submissive to Caesar, doing anything and everything Caesar asks of him. Casca then enters and we find him to be cooperative in telling Brutus what all the commotion was about. In scene 3, a storm and strange occurrences set an ominous mood, as we search further into Cassius's mind and learn how his devious mind plays people into his plans. We also find that Casca is a noble man who exaggerates a little but is easily willed by Cassius's corrupt influence. Making short appearances in the scene are Cicero (A Senator who speaks briefly with Cassius about the storm) and Cinna (a fellow conspirator). Shakespeare uses many omens (the owl, the meteor shower, and the flaming bush to name a few) to give an idea of ill times ahead. Cassius and Casca react to the storm in different ways. Cassius is filled with superstition and Casca believes that the weather is just bad.

In Act II, scene 1 Brutus starts to talk about his plan for Caesar's death. He decides it must be to slay Caesar. In this speech he used a soliloquy. This was a big part of the story because we find out Brutus final decision. When Portia and Brutus talk and she asks him what's wrong, it's foreshadowing. It tells that something is about to happen in scenes to come. There is also symbolism when Portia shows Brutus her scar; it is a symbol of loyalty to Brutus. She wanted to prove to Brutus that she could stand the pain and help support his problems. Shakespeare shows Brutus as a man of affairs to the Roman government and as a private man to his fellow beings and to his wife Portia. In scene 2, the lesson is to stick with loved ones. A person never knows whom they can trust. Shakespeare uses foreshadowing in this scene during Calphurnia's dream. In her dream she sees that Caesar is going to die, which just thickens the plot. Caesar's personality in this scene is stubbornness. He is also very gullible. Calpurnia has a very worrisome personality. Decius has a very tricky personality. He tells Caesar that he misinterprets her dream. Everyone else is deceiving. They were all pretending to be his friend, but in reality, they were plotting to kill him.

In Act V scene 1, the main characters are Octavius, Antony, Brutus, and Cassius. They are still fighting over the death of Caesar. This is the play's falling action because it's after the death of Caesar and they are in the middle of the war. Octavius is taking charge of his group and he's telling them how to run the whole march. Brutus, Cassius, and their army arrive, and Brutus and Cassius meet Antony and Octavius. Then Antony and Octavius leave. Cassius says to Messala, his servant, that today is my birthday, but those vult
