Rome's politics turn on speeches, rumour and private loyalty in Shakespeare's tragedy of conspiracy and its aftermath.
The play follows the pressure building around Caesar's growing authority and the men closest to him, then traces what happens once a decision is taken, giving readers two of the most studied orations in English drama. This Collins Classics edition carries the complete play with supporting material for classroom and independent study.
What distinguishes this copy:
• Complete play text with act and scene divisions clearly marked
• Notes and introduction aimed at readers approaching the verse afresh
• Speeches widely used for rhetoric, recitation and debate practice
• Compact paperback convenient to carry to class or rehearsal
Useful for secondary and college students, drama groups and readers of Shakespeare, available in the Collins Classics edition from Boipoka.
