Answer:

A motif is a reoccurring theme. Julius Caesar revolves around this entire notion of loyalty.

Step-by-step explanation:

for example, the loyalty of Antony and Octavius is portrayed by avenging Caesars death, and the loyalty from Brutus towards Rome is shown rather than their loyalty to Caesar.
