Julius Caesar is a tragedy by William Shakespeare, believed written in 1599. It is one of several plays written by Shakespeare based on true events from Roman history, also including Coriolanus and Antony and Cleopatra.
Although the title is Julius Caesar, Caesar is not the most visible character in its action, appearing alive in only three scenes. Marcus Brutus speaks more than four times as many lines, and the central psychological drama of the play focuses on Brutus’ struggle between the conflicting demands of honor, patriotism, and friendship.
