Answer:

I think Shakespeare creates sympathy for Caesar by reminding us his wife is barren, having us learn about his seizures, and showing us his reaction to Brutus's betrayal. Caesar is hardly a sympathetic character. In fact, Shakespeare goes out of his way to make him seem like an arrogant and thoroughly unlovable guy.

I hope this help you!:)
