HarperCollins is proud to present its incredible range of
best-loved, essential classics. Power, corruption and betrayal are
at the heart of Shakespeare's most well-known historical and
political drama. As Julius Caesar moves closer to securing power
for himself and is perceived by some as a threat to Roman citizens,
his senators plot to bring about his downfall. Caesar's
assassination leads to civil war rather than peace and the play
explores the subsequent deaths of the conspirators Brutus and
Cassius. Shakespeare's contemporaries would have spotted the
playwright's attempts to use the shift from republican to imperial
Rome to highlight the political situation of the Elizabethans at
the time. Featuring some of the most powerfully resonant and
rousing speeches of any of Shakespeare's plays, Julius Caesar
remains one of his most well-loved historical tragedies.
