brutus for the good of rome?

Brutus, for the good of Rome? Brutus, the friend of Caesar, or was he? Brutus was a man with a cunning nature; he usually has an ulterior motive. Kohlbergs Stages of development are used to put characters in a stage of life. Brutus would be placed in stage two which is the stage you would classify egoists under. He would be placed in this category because of his selfishness, disregard for others well being, and …

…noble Roman, That ever Brutus will go bound to Rome; He bears too great a mind.” (861). So he killed himself all because o! f his egotistical nature. Kohlberg’s stages of development help to class characters in a story. Brutus was part of level 2 because of his egotistical nature. He was present in level two because of his selfishness, disregard for others welfare, and his belief that he is infallible. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ **Bibliography** Ceaser, William Shakespere
