What to Focus On

  • The play centres on Caesar's murder and its consequences.
  • Caesar appears only three times but dominates the drama.
  • Antony's speech changes the mood of the Roman crowd.

  • Act I = Situation.
  • Act II = Development.
  • Act III = Crisis.

  • Rome became a republic in 509 BC.
  • The First Triumvirate consisted of Pompey, Crassus, and Julius Caesar.
  • Caesar ruled as dictator from 46 BC to 44 BC.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Caesar is the main character because the play is named after him, so he appears throughout the play and drives every scene.

Caesar is killed at the end of the play, like the hero in many tragedies.

Brutus supports Caesar and joins the conspiracy because he is jealous of Caesar’s power.

Memory Tips

Caesar as the tragic hero who appears only three times but dominates the play

Brutus as honourable but misguided by one-sided ideology

Cassius as the shrewd, practical, Epicurean conspirator

Mark Antony as loyal friend, skilled speaker, and political survivor
