Which character says And Caesar's ghost just up from Hell will cry in the voice of a king, 'Havoc!' and unleash the dogs of war.

• A. Antony
• B. Brutus
• C. Caesar
• D. Calphurnia

Answer: (A)

This line hinges on how a character uses ominous, warlike imagery to push others toward action. It fits Mark Antony, who in Julius Caesar becomes the masterful, provocative speaker who stirs the crowd and presses for revenge and war. Antony often frames events in terms of powerful forces beyond the living, invoking Caesar’s ghost to remind people of vengeance and consequence, and to justify aggressive moves like mobilizing troops. The idea of Caesar’s ghost crying out with the authority of a king to unleash havoc mirrors Antony’s skill at turning fear and emotion into political momentum.

The other figures don’t fit as naturally. Brutus speaks in a more measured, stoic tone focused on virtue and republican ideals rather than on inspiring a brutal, warlike upheaval. Calphurnia, Caesar’s wife, is not a political instigator of this sort. Caesar himself, being dead, cannot deliver such lines.
