Interesting assignment! You can prove more logical
similarities between Caesar and Jack that you will be able to discuss about Cassius and
Jack. For example, both Caesar and Jack are power hungry, and they successfully
manipulate others into offering them more leadership--or, as in Jack's case, they create
positions for themselves.
Similarly, Caesar and Jack are
strategists. They understand the workings of a crowd and know how to accomplish
long-term goals. In contrast, Cassius wanted to be a strategist, but he knows that he
alone cannot lead the conspiracy against Caesar and that he must get someone who is a
better leader than he is (Brutus) to head up the
plot.
Finally, both Caesar and Jack are used the gritty
fight involved in being ambitious. Caesar truly immersed himself in battles and war and
gained power that way. Jack immerses himself in the land and the hunting/killing in
order to make himself indispensable and feared.
Good
luck--you did a great job of choosing historical figures.
