""Julius Caesar"" has long been regarded as one of ShakespeareÕs greatest dramas. Some of its phrases live on famously: ÒBeware the Ides of MarchÓ; ÒEt tu, Brute?Ó; and ÒFriends, Romans, countrymen: lend me your ears!Ó.
When Cassius says, ÒHow many ages hence / Shall this our lofty scene be acted over, / In states unborn and accents yet unknown?Ó, his question is indeed prophetic: historyÕs answer has transformed the question into a boast. This concise, clear introduction explains just why.
Professor Cedric Watts, M.A, Ph.D., is the editor of the Wordsworth ClassicsÕ Shakespeare Series.
