Did Marc Antony really kill himself because he thought Cleopatra had died?
Not really. Marc Antony had no great affection for Cleopatra as evidenced by his letter to Octavian. Marc Antony killed himself because he knew very well that the war was lost and it was the honorable thing for a Roman to do in those circumstances.
Why was it a mistake for brutus to let mark Anthony to speak at caesars funeral?
Antony's agenda was to turn the crowd against Brutus in order to set up his own grasp for power. Brutus really underestimated his ability and power, and thought he could do no harm once Caesar was dead. He was wrong--Antony succeeded in his plot to become one of the rulers of Rome.
What is the difference between Brutus' and Antony's funeral speech for Caesar?
Marcus Brutus makes his speech very formally to reason the mob for killing Caesar. He tells them that Caesar too ambitious and would eventually become a much powerful ruler and would make the Romans his slave. Brutus appeals to the people's minds and leaves an impression that Caesar would have become a tyrant. What Brutus terms as his reason is a hypothetical situation and is not reason enough for killing Caesar. He does not provide any evidence to his statement that Caesar was ambitious.Where as Mark Antony uses flawless logic and genuine emotional appeal in his masterful oratory. first of all, Antony enters dramatically to the pulpit with Caesar's body to win the sympathy of the mob. He began his speech by addressing the mob as "friends". Antony really wants to avenge Caesar and tries to convince the crowd into believing the truth that they killed Caesar out of envy. Antony appeals to people's heart.Hence, he is successful making the mob rise against the conspirators in 'mutiny' and 'rage'. Also, Antony provides evidences of Caesar's humanity and attachment to people by showing them that Caesar had made the people his inheritors of his wealth, gardens. Also Antony tells the crowd that Caesar had always sympathized with them.This has a greater effect on the people and Antony's periodical emotional outburst only contributes to Antony's impulsive and improvisatory nature serves him perfectly. Antony is gifted with the power of oratory that helped him to stir the common man. Antony proves himself everywhere Brutus was weak. With caution and gradual persuation, he proves that he is a consummate politician using gestures and skilled rhetoric to his advantage.Unlike Brutus, who prides himself on acting solely with respect to virtue and blinding himself to his personal concerns , Antony never separates his private affairs from his public actions. Antony directly appeals to the hearts of the roman people. His speech is deeply emotional as he believes that people will not listen to reason. Antony humbles himself as "no orator as Brutus is" hinting that Brutus used trickery in his speech to deceive the crowd.Thus Antony succeed to inflame the Roman mob to rise in rebellion and seek revenge on the conspirators. The mob finds it easier to accept Antony, an emotional and sincere speaker than Brutus who appears arrogant and forceful.Marcus Brutus makes his speech very formally to reason with the the mob for killing Caesar.

Whom does mark Antony proclaim the noblest roman?
On the one hand Brutus might be considered as ignoble; early in the play he shows what might be considered as lacking ruthlessness. "I am not gamesome I do lack some part of that quick spirit." That word "gamesome" suggest that he is not a risk-taker that he is not frivolous. The word "quick sprit" implies that he lacks that ability to think on his feet unlike Antony. "Vexed I am of late with passions of some difference." This illustrates that fact that at this point in the play we see the result of Cassius's manipulation. Cassius is injecting conflicting thoughts into Brutus's head. Unlike Antony Brutus is shown to be affected by other people interference; "Into what dangers would you lead me, Cassius, That you would have me seek into myself For that which is not in me" These words evidence his dilemma because he droughts his own capacity for murder. Some might say that Brutus is not noble because of the fact that he kills Caesar. Caesar was a close confidante and plotted against him and killed him. "For Brutus was Caesar angle" the use of the word angle implies that Brutus was elevated to the highest level of esteem. What Antony uses the techniques of bathos to win over the crowd and audience. "This was the most unkindest cut of all" by using the word "unkindest" he magnifies the horror of Brutus's deed wounding him(if you'll pardon the pun) more than just saying that he mindlessly killed Caesar. On the other hand Brutus may be seen, from the point of view of certain people, as very noble. Although he has killed Caesar there are many counter points to argue against his ignobility of his actions. Brutus truly loves Rome and feels that what he is doing is for the greater good of Rome. In killing Caesar, even if it wasn't the right thing to do, Brutus still sincerely believes that what he is doing will be for the better good of Rome he says himself "Brutus would rather be a villager than the repute himself as a son of Rome" this quotation illustrates Brutus's extreme patriotism. Brutus is skeptical when Cassius first suggests the murder of Caesar "into what dangers would you lead me Cassius…?". After this Brutus deprived of sleep because he is so troubled by what Cassius has said. His wife Portia has noticed this and says "Is Brutus sick?". The fact the Brutus is losing sleep shows that he is intensely worried about the prospect of killing Caesar. There is seriously convict in his head. he wants to do what is right for the good of Rome but Caesar is his friend. Brutus said in the play, "I know no personal cause to spurn at him , But for the general." Brutus has nothing against Caesar, but he fears that Caesar my become a tyrant. He has to have good reason to betray his friend, and he decided that Caesar was becoming too ambitious. Brutus was motivated to make the decision he did by his love for Rome, and this is a very noble decision. He was very patriotic to his country and did what he thought was best for all Romans.
