" ...meh...I'm so not a Shakespeare person... "
" Useful student/popular edition of a great play. "
" I had to re-read this for a project I'm doing at work, and I was pleasantly surprised by how much I enjoyed the play (I remember it being one of my least favorite works of Shakespeare in high school). It may in part be due to a greater interest in politics as I've gotten older! "
" The immortal bard captured it perfectly with "et tu Brute?" "
" Had to struggle through this in high-school. "
" I read this one to discuss with one of my children. It cured insomnia for a couple of nights. I needed an annotated version -- I think that would have helped me. My opinion may improve as I continue having conversations with my son. "
" Fabulous play, approachable from the very first scene; timely, relevant, thought-provoking. "
" Am I the only one who didn't like Brutus? "
" Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare the genre of this is a play that includes history,drama,and tragedy. "
" One of Shakespeare's better tragedies, a wonderful tale of betrayal and realpolitik. "
" All in all I liked this book. The only part of it that I didn't like was the way that Skakespeare talked. At times, I was lost. This made it more difficult for me to like it so this is why I gave it three stars. "
William Shakespeare (1564–1616), English poet and dramatist of the Elizabethan and early Jacobean period, is the most widely known author in all of English literature and often considered the greatest. He was an active member of a theater company for at least twenty years, during which time he wrote many great plays. Plays were not prized as literature at the time and Shakespeare was not widely read until the middle of the eighteenth century, when a great upsurge of interest in his works began that continues today.
