Why there was a crown offered him and being offered him he


Compose two to three paragraphs to compare and contrast the two depictions (dialogue vs. painting) of Caesar's victorious return to Rome. Use specific examples to show the similarities and differences in the author's and painter's interpretations of the event. Use proper spelling and grammar.

#1) Read the following dialogue from the play Julius Caesar:

CASCA

You pull'd me by the cloak; would you speak with me?

BRUTUS

Ay, Casca; tell us what hath chanced to-day,

That Caesar looks so sad.

CASCA

Why, you were with him, were you not?

BRUTUS

I should not then ask Casca what had chanced.

CASCA

Why, there was a crown offered him: and being offered him, he put it by with the back of his hand, thus; and then the people fell a-shouting.

BRUTUS

What was the second noise for?

CASCA

Why, for that too.

CASSIUS

They shouted thrice: what was the last cry for?

CASCA

Why, for that too.

BRUTUS

Was the crown offered him thrice?

CASCA

Ay, marry, was't, and he put it by thrice, every time gentler than other, and at every putting-by mine honest neighbours shouted.

CASSIUS

Who offered him the crown?

CASCA

Why, Antony.

#2) Once you have read the text, examine the following painting titled Caesar Victorious:
