Stay At Home Act 2 Scene 2
3,610 words
Shakespeare's JULIUS CAESAR is not equal as a
whole, to either of his other plays taken from the
Roman history. It is inferior in interest to
Coriolanus, and both in interest and power to
Antony and Cleopatra. Critics do not much admire
the representation here given of Julius Caesar,
nor do they think it answers to the portrait given
of him in his Commentaries. He makes several
vaporing and rather pedantic speeches, and does
nothing. Indeed, he has nothing to do with it. So
far, the fault of the...

even though she is so father and so husbanded, she
is unable to stem the flow of blood that the

Calphurnias, Caesars wife, suffers greatly in

Caesar shows himself to be weak and superstitious.

Ides Of March Julius Caesar

The time before Caesar's death has many
differences in how events happened rather than if
events happened. Both historical accounts record
that Caesar had recently returned from a long
military campaign that sent him to the far reaches
of the Roman Empire. Shakespeare's account tells
of a recent victory over Pompey but does not say
that Caesar returned from a massive campaign. In
Komroff's account, The conspirators had planned
for much longer than the other authors recorded.

Julius Caesar's legacy and attributes are just as
robust today as they were in his time. From the
time he took power to the time of his death he

nothing but fall. He was one of the world's
greatest leaders and probably the best. At the age
of 15 Caesar became head of his family when his
father died in 85 bc. His family wanted him to
