AGREE ON DISAGREE?
Read the statement below then decide whether you agree or disagree with it. Be
prepared to support your opinion with details from the play. Here's your discussion
prompt:
Obviously the characters in Shakespeare's play find Mark
Antony's speech really convincing, but Shakespeare wrote the
play so that they would. But if you were to remove the easily
swayed audience and replace it with a more objective audience,
Mark Antony's speech would still stand up as a convincing work
of rhetoric.
What do you think? Write a paragraph supporting your opinion and then write a reply
paragraph. If you're working with others, your reply paragraph should respond to the
ideas of another student. If you're working alone, your reply paragraph should
support the opposite point of view from your own.
