DISTINCTION OF SHAKESPEARS JULIUS CAESAR AND REAL
LIFE Prior to examination of the main differences

tragedies, Julius Caesar, and those of a realistic
life, it must not be forgotten that Shakespeare
wrote his plays for their performance rather than
the actual publication. Hence, the play-writing
itself, was just means for making money. It is
most probable that the majority of the of the

Julius weakness. Friendship was used as a cover to
blind Julius from the truth, from the plots
against him. Flattery along with manipulation was

the Shakespeare classic. Had the casting director

mixture of qualities ranging from reasonable to
that of a tyrant to arrogantly ambitious and,
sometimes, superstitious in order to portray a
variety of sides to the potential leader of Rome.

Political nobility, thus, is formed with just
reason to threaten Rome, yet at the same time
portraying characteristics not of an antagonist.
