Julius Caesar - William Shakespeare

Descriere Julius Caesar - William Shakespeare

Featuring one of Shakespeare's most complex histories, this revised and repackaged edition includes an updated bibliography, suggested references, stage and film history of the play, and an overview of Shakespeare's life. Young Adult. \nIn 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. \nEach Edition Includes: \n- Comprehensive explanatory notes \n- Vivid introductions and the most up-to-date scholarship \n- Clear, modernized spelling and punctuation, enabling contemporary readers to understand the Elizabethan English \n- Completely updated, detailed bibliographies and performance histories \n- An interpretive essay on film adaptations of the play, along with an extensive filmography\n
