Download Julius Caesar: A Fully-Dramatized Audio Production From Folger Theatre Audiobook

" A great play, but we sure to read the introduction by Martin Wiggins. He makes a number of canny observations that will enrich your reading. "

" I also really like the movie with marlon brando, laurence olivier and others! "

" This is a classic Shakespeare play. Julius Caesar is such a great story about the real assassination of Julius during his reign. This is a classical play, and Shakespeare is the most talented and well known writer in history. "

" The language is incredible and sets the tone and background for one of my favourite plays, Antony and Cleopatra. "

" One of my favorite Shakespeares, believe it or not. I had a lot of fun analyzing it. "

" The book Julius Caeser was an good book overall. The only problem i had with the book was the way that they spoke. The way that they spoke was very different then modern day english and it was hard to comprehend. Their were to many characters in the book to understand who everybody was. "

" One of Shakespeare's finest works. A true classic. "

" I felt more should have come from this time period... "

" I could read it again. It was bearable . I'd give it 3.5 stars. Not my favorite book, but I kind of liked it. "

" One of Shakespeare's better tragedies, a wonderful tale of betrayal and realpolitik. "

" When you look at Julius Caesar as a drama, it can be kind of terrible because it is overly dramatized. But, it can be funny in some parts, such as the "mender of soles". "

" All pity choked with custom of fell deeds "

" I really did enjoy reading this book. I enjoyed the twists and turns that Shakespeare applies to his writing. It was kinda hard to understand at first but reading it on No Fear Shakespeare helped quite a bit. This is a book that everyone should read. "

" Julius Caesar gives an interesting take on the occurances that led up to the death of the most famous Roman emperor. It is a terrific account of one of history's greatest betrayals. "

" If you like Shakespeare and have the patience to translate his iambic pentameter and original language, this is probably the most dynamic of his works. It seems to have a little bit of everything, and, besides, who can pass up a good tale of betrayal and power hunger?? "

" Definitely not my favorite Shakespeare. I thought the language, while still a billion times better than what I can do, doesnt live up to his other works. This was my first time through, though, and I always like Shakespeare better each time I read a specific play. "

" I HATE this one. I muddled through it only because it was an assignment. Shakespeare is not for me! The only thing I did like was that nearly everyone dies. Thats pretty awesome. "

" if zero stars was an option thats probably what id give it "

" Amici romani concittadini, prestatemi orecchio! "

" This is my favourite book of Shakespeare... awesome work.... "

" omg i feel so sad for brutus :(((((( "

" the theme of good people being swayed to make really poor choices - and then how they live (or not) with those choices intrigues me in Shakespeare's work. "

" Julius Caesar is the first Shakeaspeare I ever read (in English I). I didn't remember much of it when I picked it up again in preparation for a performance at the Oregon Shakespeare Festival in Ashland, but was pleasantly surprised by how modern and relevant it seemed. "

" Very handy to have around to refer to, if i was to buy individual copies of all his works it would be costly and take up far too much space. Alhough of course i still like to buy special copies of my favourites. "

" I haven't read everything in it, obviously, and the 5 stars is mostly because...well, the book has everything Shakespeare and I bought it at a used-book store four years ago, in mint condish, for 20 bucks. If that doesn't deserve a 5, right off the bat, I don't know what does. Bargain. "

" Believe it or not, I have read them all O.o "

" Didn't read the whole thing of course....but this is the edition I used in college. Very nice annotated edition, however it's a bit bulky. ;-) I kept it, because really, how much is Shakespeare going to change when my kid takes it in college? "

" The college class I took on Shakespeare's work really cracked it open for me. Knowledge definitely enhances appreciation when it comes to the Bard. This single-volume text includes everything he's written, with annotations. Over 2,000 tissue-thin pages. I just want to pet it. "

" What do I think well? It one of the greatest books I've read and still reading. I know that I will continue to read it. "

" So far I've only read Hamlet....so far...just wow. Full Review Coming Later "

" It is not my intent to review the Riverside. There are several well-wrought "complete works." But nobody even comes close to William Shakespeare of Stratford. "

" Whether or not you believe that one man named William Shakespeare wrote these plays, it cannot be denied that they are greatly enjoyable on their own and have influenced countless other works of art throughout the ages. "

" Worth the investment- all of his major and minor tragedies, comedies, histories and romances- plus sonnets. Our professor had made us get a version similar to this one (not leather bound). We read a good portion of it but you can only just scratch the surface with Shakespeare. "

" I particularly like this annotated edition. Particular attention is paid to both language and historical context. "
