Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Shakespeare's portrayal of Caesar presents a modern, complex character who grapples with vulnerability and self-awareness, contrasting with Plutarch's depiction. The play's open-ended structure suggests that its events resonate beyond the final scene, leaving the historical significance ambiguous. John D. Cox's introduction explores genre, characterization, and rhetoric, alongside a comprehensive history of critical analysis. Additional appendices feature key excerpts from influential works by Lucretius, Plutarch, and Montaigne, enriching the reader's understanding of the play's context.
