cetateni care sarbatoresc victoria lui Iulius Caesar dupa razboi. Victoria este sarbatorita
prin jocurile publice la care ia parte si prietenul lui Caesar, Mark Antonio .In drumul sau

lui Martie dar aceste nu i-a aceasta avertizare in serios.

Marcus Brutus ( un prieten apropiat a lui Caesar) si Cassius( vechi inamic politic
a lui Caesar ) vor pune la cale un plan prin al omor pe Caesar deoarece le este frica ca
va accepta statutul de imparat. Cassius il convinge pe Brutus sa-I asculte planul iar acesta

Brutus, Portia simte ca ceva rau se va intampla si se teme pentru siguranta sotului sau.
Brutus ii promite ca ii va dezvalui totul mai tarziu.

In data de 15 Martie, Caesar este rugat sa nu plece la Senat de catre sotia sa

Calphurnia, care avuse vise ciudate despre moartea sotului sau. Cu toate acestea,
Caesar nu asculta, este injunghiat si moare atunci cand Brutus ii da lovitura finala.

La inmormantarea lui Caesar, Brutus tine un discurs in care spune ca a fost un

rau necasar si trebuia facut. Lumea il crede deoarece era cel mai bun prieten al lui
Caesar. Dupa discursul lui Brutus, apare si Mark Antonio se foloseste de cuvintele lui
Brutus pentru a intoarce multimea impotriva lui.

Lunile au trecut, in acest timp conspiratorii si armatele lor au fost urmariti pana in
Asia Minor.Cassius si Brutus doresc sa se intalneasca cu Mark Antonio, Lepidus si
Octavius intr-o ultima lupta. Pentru inceput, conspiratorii par sa aiba un avantaj, dar intr-
un moment de confuzie, Cassius crede ca totul este pierdut si se sinucide. Conspiratorii
inving armatele lui Cassius si Brutus. Brutus nu poate face fata umilintei si se sinucide.

In final, Mark Antonio tine un elogiu la mormatul lui Brutus, numindu-l cel mai
nobil Roman dintre toti. Ordinea a fost restabilita si cel mai important, imperiul Roman a
fost protejat.

An I

The play opens with the entry of Marullus and Flavius who interrupt a group of
citizens celebrating the victory of Julius Caesar after the war. Victoria is celebrated
through the public games of Caesar's friend Mark Antonio. On his way to the arena, Julius
Caesar is warned of a strain that tells him "Beware of the ideas of March", but they do not
take this warning seriously.
Marcus Brutus (a close friend of Caesar) and Cassius (Caesar's old political
enemy) will set up a plan to kill Caesar because he is afraid he will accept the status of
emperor. Cassius convinces Brutus to listen to his plan and he accepts: Caesar will be
killed in the Senate Chambers. After the meeting, Brutus's wife, Portia feels that
something bad will happen and she fears for hes safety. Brutus promises to reveal it all
later.
On March 15th, Caesar is asked not to go to the Senate by his wife Calphurnia,
who had strange dreams about he's death. However, Caesar does not listen, is stabbed
and dies when Brutus gives him the final blow.
At the Caesar's funeral, Brutus holds a speech in which he says it was anecessary
evil and should have been done. The world believes him because he was Caesar's best
friend. After Brutus's speech, Mark Antony appears and uses Brutus's words to turn the
crowd against him.
Months pass, while their conspirators and their armies have been traced to Asia
Minor. Cassius and Brutus want to meet Mark Antony, Lepidus and Octavius in a last
fight. In the begining, the conspirators seem to have an edge, but at a time of confusion,
Cassius thinks everything is lost and killing himself. Conspirators invade the armies of
Cassius and Brutus. Brutus can not cope with humiliation and suicide.
Finally, Mark Antonio holds an eulogy at Brutus's tomb, calling him "the most noble
Roman of them all". The Order was restored and, most importantly, the Roman Empire
was preserved.
