Question

In act 1, scene1, how does the cobbler`s opinion of Caesar differ from Flavius and Murellus` opinion?

Answer 1

The cobbler was there to celebrate Caesar’s triumphant return. Flavius and Murellus were supporters of Pompey. Flavius thought the cobbler was full while Murellus thinks that he along with the rest of the crowd has forgotten what Pompey has done for Rome. Because of this, they are determine thin the crowd as Caesars marches home.

Answer 2

Their opinion differs mainly when discussing what they each thought about Julius Caesar. The cobbler is happy to celebrate Caesar's triumph. He goes out to cheer for him, and to celebrate along with other Romans. Flavius and Murellus, however, have a much lower opinion of Caesar and do not share the respect and reverence that the cobbler shows for him.
