When year did Julius Caesar died?
He died on the 15th of March, 44 B.C. (B.C.E.). The date is referred to as 'the Ides of March' and is most commonly used in the sentence, 'Beware the Ides of March' because a Soothsayer (seer) reportedly told Julius Caesar that before his death.
Why is march 15th called ides of march?
The ides of March was called the ides of March because that was what it was. The ancient Roman calendar did not follow the same dating system as our present day calendar. The months were divided into three lunar sections which were the Kalends, Nones and Ides. Every month had all three divisions. In the case of the ides, it could fall on either the 13th or the 15th of the month. In March the ides were on the 15th.
How and when was Julius Caesar assassinated?
Gaius Julius Caesar was assassinated on the Ides of March (15th of March) in 44 B.C. by Marcus Junius Brutus and the other senators because they hoped to end his reign and restore the normal running of the Republic, but only led to another Roman civil war. He was sanctified two years after his assassination by the Senate as one of the Roman deities. His rule was succeeded by Gaius Octavianus, his son.On the day of his assassination, a group of senators called Caesar to the forum to read a petition written by the senators to ask him to hand power back to the Senate. However, the petition was a fake. Marcus Antonius (Mark Anthony), one of Caesar's generals and one of his most loyal friends and his second cousin, the lover of Queen Cleopatra of Egypt, learned of the plot the night before from a frightened Liberator named Servilius Casca and went to warn him at the steps of the forum, however, Caesar was intercepted first by the senators as he was passing the Theatre of Pompey.As Caesar began to read the petition, Tilius Cimber, the politician who handed him the petition, pulled down his tunic. At the same time, Casca pulled out his dagger and attempted to cut the man's throat but only made a glancing blow. Caesar turned and caught Casca by the arm. Caesar said in Latin to Casca, "Casca, you villain, what are you doing?"Casca became frightened and shouted out in Greek, "Help, brother!" and within moments, all of the politicians including Brutus began attacking Caesar. He attempted to get away but blinded by blood, he tripped and fell and they continued to stab him as he lay defenseless on the steps.Over sixty men were involved in his assassination. An examination of his body later by a physician showed that he was stabbed twenty-three times but it was only one wound that had been lethal - the second blow to his chest.After the assassination, Brutus stepped forward as if to make a speech to his fellow senators but they fled the building and then he and his followers ran throughout the city shouting, "People of Rome, we are once again free!" They were met with silence as the citizens had locked themselves in as soon as rumors of what was happening began to spread.Afterwards, they made a wax statue of Caesar that depicted all 23 stab wounds he had received in the forum. A crowd that amassed there set fire to the forum, badly damaging it and neighboring buildings. Marcus Antonius, Octavian, and many others soon had to fight a series of five civil wars that ended the formation of the Roman Empire.
Who says the Ides of March are come?
Ceasar.He was warned by a seer to beware the ides of march (March 15th).When the day finally came Ceasar again met the same seer andmockingly said; Well, The Ides of March are come.The seer then softly said to him;Aye, they are come, but they are not gone.William Shakespeare - Julius Ceasar / Act I / Scene II. A Public PlaceFollowing the soothsayer's warning "Beware the ides of March"Casca retells Brutus and Cassius of the public commotion with Ceasar.(Anthony offers Ceasar a crown three times, and three times he refuses it. The crowd goes wild with foul-breathed cheering, causing Ceasar to faint and foam at the mouth.BRUTUSAy, Casca; tell us what hath chanced to-day,That Caesar looks so sad.CASCAWhy, you were with him, were you not?BRUTUSI should not then ask Casca what had chanced.CASCAWhy, there was a crown offered him: and beingoffered him, he put it by with the back of his hand,thus; and then the people fell a-shouting.BRUTUSWhat was the second noise for?CASCAWhy, for that too.CASSIUSThey shouted thrice: what was the last cry for?CASCAWhy, for that too.BRUTUSWas the crown offered him thrice?CASCAAy, marry, was't, and he put it by thrice, everytime gentler than other, and at every putting-bymine honest neighbours shouted.CASSIUSWho offered him the crown?CASCAWhy, Antony.BRUTUSTell us the manner of it, gentle Casca.CASCAI can as well be hanged as tell the manner of it:it was mere foolery; I did not mark it. I saw MarkAntony offer him a crown;--yet 'twas not a crownneither, 'twas one of these coronets;--and, as I toldyou, he put it by once: but, for all that, to mythinking, he would fain have had it. Then heoffered it to him again; then he put it by again:but, to my thinking, he was very loath to lay hisfingers off it. And then he offered it the thirdtime; he put it the third time by: and still as herefused it, the rabblement hooted and clapped theirchapped hands and threw up their sweaty night-capsand uttered such a deal of stinking breath becauseCaesar refused the crown that it had almost chokedCaesar; for he swounded and fell down at it: andfor mine own part, I durst not laugh, for fear ofopening my lips and receiving the bad air.CASSIUSBut, soft, I pray you: what, did Caesar swound?CASCAHe fell down in the market-place, and foamed atmouth, and was speechless.BRUTUS'Tis very like: he hath the failing sickness.CASSIUSNo, Caesar hath it not; but you and I,And honest Casca, we have the falling sickness.CASCAI know not what you mean by that; but, I am sure,Caesar fell down. If the tag-rag people did notclap him and hiss him, according as he pleased anddispleased them, as they use to do the players inthe theatre, I am no true man.BRUTUSWhat said he when he came unto himself?CASCAMarry, before he fell down, when he perceived thecommon herd was glad he refused the crown, heplucked me ope his doublet and offered them histhroat to cut. An I had been a man of anyoccupation, if I would not have taken him at a word,I would I might go to hell among the rogues. And sohe fell. When he came to himself again, he said,If he had done or said any thing amiss, he desiredtheir worships to think it was his infirmity. Threeor four wenches, where I stood, cried 'Alas, goodsoul!' and forgave him with all their hearts: butthere's no heed to be taken of them; if Caesar hadstabbed their mothers, they would have done no less.BRUTUSAnd after that, he came, thus sad, away?CASCAAy.CASSIUSDid Cicero say any thing?CASCAAy, he spoke Greek.CASSIUSTo what effect?CASCA Nay, an I tell you that, Ill ne'er look you i' theface again: but those that understood him smiled atone another and shook their heads; but, for mine ownpart, it was Greek to me. I could tell you morenews too: Marullus and Flavius, for pulling scarfsoff Caesar's images, are put to silence. Fare youwell. There was more foolery yet, if I couldremember it.The Ides of MarchThe Ides of March has long been considered an ill-fated day. Julius Caesar was assassinated on March 15, 44 B.C. Historians note that it is likely that a soothsayer named Spurinna had warned Caesar that danger would occur by the ides of March. William Shakespeare included the phrase "Beware the ides of March" in his play Julius Caesar.The ides were the 15th days of some months (including Martius, or March) in the ancient Roman lunar calendar; they were the 13th in other months. The word ides comes from the Latin word idus, which is possibly derived from an Etruscan word meaning "to divide." The ides were originally meant to mark the full Moon (the "halfway point" of a lunar month), but because the Roman calendar months and actual lunar months were of different lengths, they quickly got out of step. The ancient Romans considered the day after the calends (first of the month), nones (ninth day before the ides, inclusive), or ides of any month as unfavorable. These were called dies atri.ref: http://almanac.comDies Atridies atri - or "black days" were not marked on the calendar because they always occured on the day after the Kalends, Nones and Ides of each month. Nothing new could be done on dies atri, and even state cult festivals were not held on these days. Romans also thought that the Kalends, Nones and Ides of each month as well as the fourth day of each month were unlucky days (the way we would think of Friday the Thirteenth). There were no legal or religious prohibitions against activities on simply unlucky days, and a nundina could fall on Nones quite easily. Furthermore, Romans thought the month of May and the first half of June were terribly unlucky months to get married in.ref: http://abacus.bates.edu
