What humor did you find in act 1 Julius Caesar?

* Cassius's description of Caesar's epilepsy: Cassius tells Brutus that Caesar is subject to "falling sickness," which is a euphemism for epilepsy. He describes Caesar's seizures in graphic detail, including how he "foams at the mouth" and "falls down." This is a humorous moment because it pokes fun at Caesar's supposedly god-like status.

* The cobbler's joke: As Caesar passes through the streets of Rome, a cobbler calls out to him, "Well, shoemaker, you have had your wish!" This is a reference to the fact that Caesar has been declared dictator for life, which the cobbler sees as a sign that he is now above the law. Caesar is amused by the joke, and he laughs it off.

* The soothsayer's warning: A soothsayer warns Caesar to "beware the ides of March." Caesar dismisses the warning, saying that he has "no fear" of the ides. This is a humorous moment because it foreshadows Caesar's assassination, which takes place on the ides of March.

* The quarrel between Brutus and Cassius: Brutus and Cassius have a heated argument about whether or not to assassinate Caesar. The argument is full of insults, including Cassius calling Brutus "a wasp" and Brutus calling Cassius "a dog." This is a humorous moment because it shows that even the most serious of men can be petty and childish.
