What to Focus On

  • Dramatist personae means the list of characters in a play.
  • It helps identify each character and their role.
  • It is especially useful in a play with many characters and political groups.
  • Julius Caesar is the title character and a Roman dictator.
  • Octavius Caesar, Mark Antony, and Aemilius Lepidus are triumvirs after Caesar's death.
  • These characters represent political authority and public power.
  • Brutus, Cassius, Casca, Trebonius, Ligarius, Decius Brutus, Metellus Cimber, and Cinna are conspirators.
  • The conspirators are distinct from the triumvirs.
  • Brutus is married to Portia.

Common Mistakes to Avoid
