Logos
“I thrice presented him a kingly crown, / Which he did thrice refuse. / Was this ambition?” (Shakespeare Act III Scene II).
“Your statue spouting blood in many pipes, / In which so many smiling Romans bathed…” (Shakespeare Act II Scene II).
Pathos
"Do not consent / That Antony speak in his funeral. / Know you how much the people may be moved / By that which he will utter?” (Shakespeare Act III Scene I).
Ethos
Marc Antony uses logos to convince the Plebeians that Caesar wasn’t ambitious by saying that he offered Caesar the crown of Rome three times, and each time he refused to accept it. By asking the people of Rome if Caesar’s actions seem ambitious to them, he is questioning the logical part of them. Ultimately, he convinces them that Caesar was noble, and wasn’t trying to take over Rome.
Decius uses pathos to appeal to Caesar’s emotions by saying that Calpurnia’s dream represented him making the people of Rome content. Decius was successful in convincing Caesar to go to the Senate by using this rhetorical device.
Cassius argues that Marc Antony shouldn’t speak at Caesar's funeral because of the impact that he will have on the people of Rome. Cassius uses ethos to try to convince Brutus because he feels like the people of Rome will be swayed by what Antony says.
