I disagree with the people saying that Brutus is the tragic hero. I believe that Cassius takes that role, and the climax is his death. Of course, he must have a tragic flaw, which would be his desire to do the best thing for Rome. He thought that Caesar was a tyrant, but it was his wanting to kill Caesar that started the rising action. The conspiracy kept it rising, and Caesar's death just adds to it. As i said, the climax would be Cassius' death and he death of the others is the falling action and resolution.
