Political Comic



Antony: I don’t see why everyone says Rome can’t think for itself...
Caesar: Dance puppets! Dance!


Symbolism:
The puppet’s strings represent Caesar’s control over the Roman public.
Exaggeration:
Caesar’s size has been exaggerated to show how ‘big’ he has become.
Analogy:
The analogy is that the people’s free will is only an illution.
Irony:
The irony in this cartoon is how oblivious the people are to Caesar’s power even though it’s right in front of them.
