  • The Tragedy of Julius Caesar ______
    THE TRAGEDY OF JULIUS CAESAR ___________________________ by Dan Gurskis based on the play by William Shakespeare THE TRAGEDY OF JULIUS CAESAR FADE IN: A STATUE OF JULIUS CAESAR in a modern military dress uniform. Then, after a moment, it begins. First, a trickle. Then, a stream. Then, a rush. The statue is bleeding from the chest, the neck, the arms, the abdomen, the hands — dozens of wounds. DISSOLVE TO: EXT. HILLY COUNTRYSIDE — DAY Late winter. The ground is mottled with patches of snow and ice. BURNED IN are the words: "Kosovo, soon after the unrest." Somewhere in the distance, an open-topped Jeep bounces along a rutted, twisting road. INT. OPEN-TOPPED JEEP — MOVING FLAVIUS and MARULLUS, two military officers in uniform, occupy the front passenger's seat and the rear seat, respectively. An ENLISTED MAN is behind the wheel. The three ride in silence for a moment, huddled against the cold, wind whipping through their hair. There is a casual almost careless air to the men. If they do not feel invincible, they feel at the very least unconcerned. Even the machine gun mounted on the rear of the Jeep goes unattended. Just then, automatic sniperfire RINGS OUT of the surrounding woods. The windshield SHATTERS. The driver's forehead explodes in a spray of blood and bone. He slumps over the steering wheel, pulling it hard to the side. ANGLE ON THE JEEP swerving off the road, flipping down an embankment. All three men are thrown from the Jeep, which comes to rest on its side. The driver, clearly dead, lies wide-eyed in a ditch.

  • Grade 10 Literature Mini-Assessment Excerpt from Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene Ii
    Grade 10 Literature Mini-Assessment Excerpt from Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene ii by William Shakespeare This grade 10 mini-assessment is based on an excerpt from Julius Caesar, Act III, Scene ii by William Shakespeare and a video of the scene. This text is considered to be worthy of students’ time to read and also meets the expectations for text complexity at grade 10. Assessments aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS) will employ quality, complex texts such as this one. Questions aligned to the CCSS should be worthy of students’ time to answer and therefore do not focus on minor points of the text. Questions also may address several standards within the same question because complex texts tend to yield rich assessment questions that call for deep analysis. In this mini- assessment there are seven selected-response questions and one paper/pencil equivalent of technology enhanced items that address the Reading Standards listed below. Additionally, there is an optional writing prompt, which is aligned to both the Reading Standards for Literature and the Writing Standards. We encourage educators to give students the time that they need to read closely and write to the source. While we know that it is helpful to have students complete the mini-assessment in one class period, we encourage educators to allow additional time as necessary. Note for teachers of English Language Learners (ELLs): This assessment is designed to measure students’ ability to read and write in English. Therefore, educators will not see the level of scaffolding typically used in instructional materials to support ELLs—these would interfere with the ability to understand their mastery of these skills.

Though I was teaching Shakespeare, taking some joy in pointing out his dirty jokes to my students and showing them how to fight using air broadswords; though I directed Shakespeare productions; though I acted in many of his plays in college and professionally; though I attended a three-week institute on teaching Shakespeare, during all of that time, I knew that I was just going through the motions. Shakespeare, and our educational system’s obsession with him, was still a bit of a mystery to me.

  • Ever Thus to Tyrants
    EVER THUS TO TYRANTS The plot to overthrow Julius Caesar is either treachery or an attempt to save the Republic, depending on your opinions of the figures involved. Historians have long debated whether Caesar was an accomplished leader or, as the conspirators argue, a power-hungry tyrant. What does Shakespeare’s play tell us? Legend has it that Marcus Brutus uttered “sic semper tyrannis” MARCH 2019 (“ever thus to tyrants”) as he and the other conspirators assassinated Julius Caesar. The phrase has also gained notoriety because John WRITTEN BY: Wilkes Booth allegedly shouted the phrase as he fatally shot KEE-YOON NAHM Abraham Lincoln. Booth, who at one time played Mark Antony in (FESTIVAL DRAMATURG) Shakespeare’s play, was aware of the phrase’s attribution to Brutus. He wanted to connect his murder to the death of Julius Caesar, THIS ARTICLE IS ABOUT: CAESAR perhaps to justify the deed. But Brutus probably never said these words. The Roman historian Plutarch does not mention this in his account of Caesar’s life, although the assassination is described in gruesome detail. Shakespeare relied heavily on Plutarch to write his play, and so Brutus in Julius Caesar does not say the infamous line either. However, some of the other conspirators are eager to label Caesar a tyrant. Immediately after the assassination, Cinna shouts for all to hear, “Liberty! Freedom! Tyranny is dead!” By the time that Brutus and Antony give their funeral speeches, part of the public has adopted this viewpoint, calling the late Caesar a tyrant. Earlier in the play, we see Cassius first develop this narrative.

  • Constructing Caesar: Julius Caesar’S Caesar and the Creation of the Myth of Caesar in History and Space
    CONSTRUCTING CAESAR: JULIUS CAESAR’S CAESAR AND THE CREATION OF THE MYTH OF CAESAR IN HISTORY AND SPACE DISSERTATION Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Bradley G. Potter, M.A. * * * * * The Ohio State University 2004 Dissertation Committee: Approved by Professor Erik Gunderson, Adviser Professor Fritz Graf ______________________ Professor Ellen O’Gorman Advisor Department of Greek & Latin ABSTRACT Authors since antiquity have constructed the persona of Caesar to satisfy their views of Julius Caesar and his role in Roman history. I contend that Julius Caesar was the first to construct Caesar, and he did so through his commentaries, written in the third person to distance himself from the protagonist of his work, and through his building projects at Rome. Both the war commentaries and the building projects are performative in that they perform “Caesar,” for example the dramatically staged speeches in Bellum Gallicum 7 or the performance platform in front of the temple of Venus Genetrix in the Forum Iulium. Through the performing of Caesar, the texts construct Caesar. My reading aims to distinguish Julius Caesar as author from Caesar the protagonist and persona the texts work to construct. The narrative of Roman camps under siege in Bellum Gallicum 5 constructs Caesar as savior while pointing to problems of Republican oligarchic government, offering Caesar as the solution. Bellum Civile 1 then presents the savior Caesar to the Roman people as the alternative to the very oligarchy that threatens the libertas of the people.

  • Of the World
    of the World ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA IN SHAKESPEARE'S DEVELOPMENT THE PILLAR OF THE WORLD ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA IN SHAKESPEARE'S DEVELOPMENT by Julian Markels In tracing the development of Shake­ speare's growing concern with the conflict between public and private values, Mr. Markels finds that the traditional doctrine of order by which the history plays ideal­ ize political stability as an end in itself is transcended in Antony and Cleopatra. The problematic relation of the indi­ vidual ruler to the society he rules, as seen particularly in Julius Caesar and King Lear where the effects of self-dramatization magnify the disparity between the public and the private realms, is resolved in An- tony and Cleopatra where the claims ot both realms are reconciled and the ideal of stability is transformed from the raison d'etre of human action into its mere donnee. Mr. Markels points out that the often noted discontinuities in the action of An- tony and Cleopatra—and, indeed, even in the syntax of the dialogue itself—far from needing to be resolved and explained away, are intrinsic to the conflict portrayed. As internalized in Antony, the conflict is not simply that of a man constantly torn be­ tween opposing loyalties to, on the one hand, the Roman ideal of honor and duty as personified in Caesar, and, on the other, the emotional fulfilment represented so (Continued on back flap) THE PILLAR OF THE WORLD ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA IN SHAKESPEARE'S DEVELOPMENT The Pillar of the World ANTONY AND CLEOPATRA IN SHAKESPEARE'S DEVELOPMENT By JULIAN MARKELS OHIO STATE UNIVERSITY PRESS Copyright © 1968 by the Ohio State University Press All Rights Reserved Library of Congress Catalogue Number: 68-18939 For my mother, FRIEDA MARKELS Acknowledgments IN ITS PROTRACTED GESTATION THIS BOOK HAS BENEFITED BY my conversations with many colleagues, friends, and relatives, especially William J.

A YEAR ago I let a class at school take yulius CcEsar as their first reading in Shakespeare, and made daily use of this book of Professor Craik's in teaching them. They noted down all the more im- portant points as I gave them, and, without having seen the book, learned the better part of it pretty thoroughly. It took more time than I had ever before given to a single play, — considerably more, of course, than would have been necessary if the book had been in the hands of the scholars ; but the results satisfied me that it was time well spent. I never had a class that became so heartily interested in Shakespeare, or that went on so rapidly and so well in reading other plays.
