Julius Caesar lived long ago but was able to make his mark in history because of the writings of Plutarch and Shakespeare. Plutarch wrote about Caesar using knowledge passed down from past generations, strictly stating what he knew to be the facts. He did not write it as a story to entertain people, rather to inform them on the great Julius Caesar. Shakespeare, on the other hand, wrote his plays to entertain people. Shakespeare based his play off of Plutarch writing while adding his own touch to…

In Shakespeare’s Julius Caesar, many factors might make you wonder, why is it named Julius Caesar? Who is the protagonist? I’ve asked myself these questions, and I’ve come to a conclusion. Brutus is the protagonist, and the play should be named after him. He shows more characterization, he is more present in the play itself, and he has a bigger impact in the story. Caesar himself is a big character, but I can not see him being labelled as the protagonist. I found myself wondering multiple times…
Julius Caesar transformed Rome from a growing empire into a mighty empire. Throughout many battles, many affairs and many risks, Caesar became one of the most feared leaders in history. He had other leaders running away from him or trying to take him down for many years, and no foreign leaders accomplished their goal.

Their assassins were carried out by people who had disagreed with the way…

In William Shakespeare’s play, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, he uses a complex character, Marcus Brutus to demonstrate the idea of a tragic hero. A tragic hero is a person of noble birth who suffers a catastrophe. Shakespeare displays the idea of a tragic hero by including his traditional elements, adding complexity to Brutus, and presenting him with an internal conflict. In this case, Shakespeare uses the concept of a tragic flaw to establish his interpretation of a tragic hero. An ancestor of…
