Violence in Shakespeare’s The Tragedy of Julius Caesar “Liberty”! Freedom. Tyranny is dead!” is what Cinna cried while Julius Caesar died from his stab wounds, but did the conspirators really kill Tyranny (III.i.86)?
Role of Violence While some leaders believe in the rule of law and protection of lives and property, others perceive effective leadership as a combination of controlled violence, cruelty, and extrajudicial killings. Some political philosophers, such as Niccolo Machiavelli, believe in necessary brutality and the capacity of a ruler to act in an entirely self-serving way. Throughout “The Prince,” for example, Machiavelli makes numerous claims about perfect governance that strike the ruler as unnecessarily cruel or harsh. Other scholars, such as Las Casas believe that effective leadership refrains from any form of violence or intimidation. This paper will outline the role of violence within the political arena with reference to the views of Machiavelli
In the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, the story of a corrupt Roman government unfolds. Brutus, the loyal “best friend” of Caesar, murders him in an attempt to save the citizens of Rome from becoming slaves under Caesar’s rule. Brutus and other conspirators, such as Cassius, believe that Caesar would have been a terrible king to the people of Rome because of the false proclamations of Caesar being a god. The idea of murder for the justice of the Roman people those against Caesar had was the idea of using violence to evoke justice. These similar tactics and ideas that violence can solve most problems are still used today in the American government.

Michelangelo was completely committed to art and religion and lived prudently despite his fame. According to Roger, Michelangelo “was affectionate and generous to his family and friends, but he is also inclined to be distrustful and withdrawn harboring a sharp temper and a sarcastic tongue” (Eugène 62).

Even though he is said to be influenced by his teacher, Leonardo Da Vinci and Michelangelo, Raphael had made a name of his own in becoming the master of drawing Madonnas. His depiction of Madonna and the Christ child is so graceful and idealized. The naturalism and realism of the human figure are perfected. The landscape in his paintings are clearly influenced by that of Leonardo Da Vinci with a warm palette and hazy feeling, not too stand out to help the audience focus on the central figure. The structure of his figures is also under Michelangelo Raphael is admired for dynamic composition and movement, the clear form and its visual achievement of human grandeur.
This shows that Leonardo Da Vinci wasn’t just a great painter but he was a man of all kinds of talent being able to come with war

Michelangelo had a gigantic influence on the renaissance. He was a master at both painting and sculpting, he also was an architect, engineer, and poet.

People tend to have a craving for power, which oftentimes stems from violence. Violence causes anger in people which is hard to control and easy to grow wild. Violence takes us all the way back to the Roman Empire. In the play, The Tragedy Of Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare, Shakespeare shows how easy it is for violence to become out of control. After Caesar's funeral, a mob of people murders Cinna the poet because they mistook him for Cinna the Conpiracer.
