Shakespeare composed Julius Caesar in about 1599, using as his source Sir Thomas North's translation of Plutarch's lives, which had been published about twenty years earlier.

Though the play hinges on Caesar's assassination, it is a very astute comment on the influences of political power. Through events surrounding his death, the themes of frustrated ambition and crude demagoguery are picked up and brilliantly handled. It is interesting to see how Caesar's personality dominates the play, in spite of his brief stage appearance, and by contrast brings out the latent qualities in the other main characters-Brutus, Antony and Cassius.

About Author
William Shakespeare No. of books available: 9
William Shakespeare, perhaps the greatest English playwright ever, was born in 1564. By 1592 he was sufficiently established as a playwright to be criticized in print. He was a leading member of the Lord Chamberlain's Company, which became the King's Men on the accession of James I in 1603. He died in April 1616 and is buried in Holy Trinity Church, Stratford-upon-Avon.
