Please note: While Mark Antony was a real historical figure who indeed delivered a speech after Caesar's assassination, the words you hear in this video are a version of the creation of William Shakespeare, not a transcript of Antony's original oration. Shakespeare's 'Julius Caesar' dramatizes historical events with artistic license to explore themes of betrayal, power, and persuasion. The actual content of Antony's historical speech is not recorded in such detail. Enjoy this Shakespearean interpretation, rich in drama and crafted for the stage!
He definitely said something similar in terms of emotion and impact. He persuaded the commoners to riot.
Thanks for the transparency.
And I might as well throw this one out there too. Ave Divus Julius!
Hail to the Divine Marcus Antonius Theos Euergetes! Hail Marcus Antonius Neos Dionysos!
Marc Antony is honestly someone for whom I need to sit down one day and really get to know more about. Dude had the highest of highs and the lowest of lows. I wish I had a tenth of His charisma. He was honored as divine at various points in His life and I gladly pay such homage to Him
Proud of your for growing and sticking this out, brother.
The voiceovers are sounding pretty dang good.
Thanks, brother. What do you think of the background music? It was partly thanks to your suggestion a while ago.
@@TheLegendaryLore I noticed the music. I thought it was a great addition. Fit nicely. Was it royalty free or did you use AI to generate the music?
@@NorcomUnion I used Sunu AI. They released a new model recently taht's really good.
@@NorcomUnion Suno AI :)
@@TheLegendaryLore I wonder if my stories would benefit from soundtracks. I guess I oughta start earning money on them before thinking about spending more money on them though. lol
Mark Anthony: Can I say something at the funeral Brutus??
Brutus: Ok, but don’t say something that will make people go apeshit insane and start a civil war
Mark Anthony: Proceeds to make people apeshit insane and start a civil war*
Made my day 😂😂😂
I love how the conspirators realized that Marc Antony was enough of a threat to know that they needed to keep Him away from them so they could assassinate Caesar but somehow didn't realize that He was going to fuck them over as soon as possible
Very interesting and well put together content for such a small channel. Hopefully fortune meets you.
Thank you, brother!
Need more consistent content. Love it but you’re losing traction between videos
so eloquently (insert expl$@ive of your choosing here)😅
You didn't like it?
@@TheLegendaryLore one would like to trust in govt. but not when each half is constantly doing battle for the other’s demise. and as a citizen one is faced with diving deep into ye ‘ol pockets and constantly fetch coin for influence and control. until some one with more coin rolls through like.. yo’ i can help. then ur owned. yeah.. so no.. i do not like it😆
I misunderstood your original comment 😄 The world of politics has changed surprisingly little in 2000 years, it seems.
