Shakespeare introduces the idea of opposites being the same through the theme of paradox in several of his plays, such as in Romeo and Juliet with the famous line "O brawling love, O loving hate!" This idea is also presented through characters who embody contradictory traits, like Macbeth who is both valiant and ruthless. Shakespeare explores the complexity of human nature by showcasing how seemingly opposing qualities can coexist within the same individual or situation.
The play was Julius Caesar. "Soothsayer Beware the ides of March."
Julius Caesar by Shakespeare
It is William Shakespeare's JuliusCaesar.
Julius Caesar
The middle of a Roman month is considered the ides, hence the reference to the Ides of March in William Shakespeare's play, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar.
It's a misquotation from Shakespeare's Julius Caesar: The soothsayer has warned Caesar to "beware the Ides of March" (The Ides of March is March 15). March 15 comes along and Caesar, still in the pink, sees the soothsayer. He says, "The Ides of March are come" and the soothsayer says "Aye, Caesar, but not gone". Sure enough, Caesar is murdered shortly thereafter.
the ides of march is famous for being the day Julius Caesar was assassinated
In "Julius Caesar" that date refers to the Ides of March, the day prophesied that Julius Caesar would be killed. That's where we get the phrase "Beware of the Ides March".
Ides of March is a line from a play by Shakespeare called "Julius Caesar". A soothsayer says to Julius Caesar "Beware the ides of March!". He was warning Julius Caesar that he would be murdered then. The word ides means the the 15th day, in this case the 15th of March. Also note that the Ides of March (or March 15th) was the Feast day for the god Mars - the Roman god of war.
The date of Julius Caesar's death is remembered as the ides of March due to the line "Beware the ides of March" from the play Julius Caesar by William Shakespeare. The ides of a month is the 13th, except in March, May, July and October, when it's the 15th.
The phrase is actually 'beware of the ides of March,' and it comes from Shakespeare's mind. In his play Julius Caesar, he has a soothsayer say that phrase because Caesar was killed on the ides of March. For the meaning of the ides of any month, see below.The Roman months had kalends, nones and ides. the kalend was the first day of the month. The nones was the eight day before the ides and fell between the 5th and the 7th day of the month, depending on the position if the ides. It is thought to have been originally the day of the half moon. The ides fell in the middle of the both, between the 13th and the 15th day. It is thought that originally it was the day of the full moon.
You need to specify what night you are referring to. If you are referring to Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar the soothsayer said: "beware of the ides of March." Caesar was assassinated on the ides of March. The ides was the 13th day of the months with 29 day and the 15th day of the months with 31 days. It is thought that originally they were the day of the half moon.
