Julius Caesar William Shakespeare

by Willia Shakespeare, Paula Benítez (Editor)

Julius Caesar is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed to have been written in 1599. It portrays the conspiracy against the Roman dictator of the same name, his assassination and its aftermath. It is one of several Roman plays that he wrote, based on true events from Roman history, which also include Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra. Although the title of the play is Julius Caesar, Caesar is not the central character in its action; he appears in only three scenes, and is killed at the beginning of the third act. The protagonist of the play is Marcus Brutus, and the central psychological drama is his struggle between the conflicting demands of honour, patriotism, and friendship.

It was really boring

[Linda Officer]

Funny, powerful, full of great speeches. I wish so much of Shakespeare didn't have suicide in it.

[Sarthak Parikh]

My first reading Shakespeare, don’t know what to make of this. Deeply entertaining to say the least. A good Start of an Attempt to make me appreciate aesthetics again.
Next ones ought to be : Romeo and Juliet, Macbeth.
