Book Synopsis

As the Roman Republic teeters on the brink of collapse, the charismatic general Julius Caesar''s meteoric rise to power sends shockwaves through the city. Yet, his growing influence stirs fear and jealousy among his peers, including the noble Brutus and the cunning Cassius, who conspire to assassinate him in a bid to preserve the ideals of the Republic. A dark tale of absolute power, corruption and betrayal, Julius Caesar was first performed in 1599 and its themes remain hugely resonant today.

This edition is based on the First Folio and includes an extensive introduction that examines the origins of the work, the plot and the characters as well as notes on the text, a glossary and a timeline of Shakespeare''s life and work.
