Julius Caesar en0

William Shakespeare writes the Tragedy of Julius Caesar. This tragic play is based on historical facts of the life of Julius Caesar. It displays the events before his death such as his conquest over Pompey’s armies and his coronation to be king and after his death. Furthermore, this play describes the minds and motives of Caesar’s assassins. He gives a description of Cassius that serves as a prediction on his choices regarding Cassius. In addition, my choices would differ from those of Caesar’s if I was the exalted ruler.

First, in Julius Caesar, Caesar describes Cassius in the first act and he made choices based on his description. Caesar referred to Cas

. . .

sius as having “a lean and hungry look [and] he thinks too much, such men are dangerous”.

In conclusion, judgements made by Caesar about Cassius that predicted the future of the play. I would not have trusted Cassius as much as Caesar did because of his “dangerous looks” such as his facial expression. In addition, the events that followed would have been entirely different if I had been the exalted ruler. In the play, I predict that Caesar will keep an eye on Cassius and avoid him as much as possible.

Finally, I would do things in a different way if I were the exalted ruler of ancient Rome. However, he describes Cassius as a one who “reads much, a great observer, and looks quite through the deeds of men”. By doing these inves-tigations on people, I can lower my chances of being assassinated. As the exalted ruler of the Roman Em-pire, I would investigate many people whom I have suspicions on. What this means is that Cassius exhibits no signs of cheerfulness and he is not “gamesome”, indicating that he may be a threat to Caesar. Caesar feels suspicious about Cassius and sees him as a danger to his power. Nonetheless, these projected actions will still seal his fate later in the play. Moreover, unlike Caesar, I would consider some warnings from people such as the soothsayer. Moreover, Caesar felt that such a man could not be fully trusted and felt Cassius had little loyalty to him.
