The tragedy of Julius Caesar

Shakespeare, William 1564-1616 (Author). Mowat, Barbara A. (Added Author). Werstine, Paul. (Added Author). Folger Shakespeare Library. (Added Author).

Summary: In this striking tragedy of political conflict, Shakespeare turns to the ancient Roman world and to the famous assassination of Julius Caesar by his republican opponents. The play is one of tumultuous rivalry, of prophetic warnings–“Beware the ides of March”–and of moving public oratory, “Friends, Romans, countrymen!” Ironies abound and most of all for Brutus, whose fate it is to learn that his idealistic motives for joining the conspiracy against a would-be dictator are not enough to sustain the movement once Caesar is dead.
