Poëzie & Drama
Shakespeares play Julius Caesar is a tragedy portraying the assassination of Caesar and its aftermath. As in much literature, the worries of the day were dramatized using history as a model - in this case Shakespeare encapsulated the fears that Queen Elizabeth hadnt named a successor and that civil war would result. What makes Julius Caesar timeless, like so many of Shakespeares plays, are the psychological complexities at work: the characters - such as Brutus - are not simply good or evil; rather they are rendered as flawed humans plagued by their conscious and led to action by their emotions. And because its a Shakespearean tragedy, just about everyone in Julius Caesar ends up dead at the end.
