Aim: Kathleen Kunz Julius Caesar was a play written in the late 1500's by William Shakespeare. It is a tragic story about " the 44 BC conspiracy against the Roman dictator Julius Caesar, his assassination and the defeat of the conspirators at the Battle of Philippi." Although the play is named after Julius Caesar, most of the story involves Marcus Brutus. With his character Shakespeare gets his main point or "purpose" across. Which is mostly about struggling between the orders of "honour, patriotism, and friendship."
