He represents Elizabethan attitudes towards women by giving Romeo and Juliet different priviledges and personalities. Romeo is free to go where ever he pleases and is as a result very impulsive, confident and brave. Juliet is rarely allowed to leave her house and when she does she has to tell her parents why (when she goes to marry Romeo she tells her parents she is going to confession) and is therefore shy, proper and reluctant (until she met Romeo anyway.)

What modern day actor could play Julius Caesar?

Any modern day actor could play Caesar. One of the things about Shakespeare is that there are virtually no rules about who can play what. Women have played Hamlet and Romeo; men have played Rosalind and Juliet. White guys have played Othello and black guys have played Macbeth. In other words, Jennifer Aniston could play Caesar. And I bet she'd make a good job of it too.


What feast are the people celebrating in act 2 in juius Caesar?

The first two Acts of Julius Caesar are centred on the feast of Lupercalia, an ancient feast held in February when young men ran naked through the streets and struck women and girls with sticks. This was a fertility rite. In the play, Antony is shown as running this race, and Caesar asks him to touch his wife Calpurnia. In the play Shakespeare as usual compresses events, having the Lupercalia end on March 14 (just as he compresses the year between the battle of Munda and the assassination)


Did the witches have beards in Shakespeare theatre?

In Shakespeare's time, it was common for male actors to portray female roles, including witches, as women were not allowed to perform on stage. Some interpretations and productions have depicted witches with beards to emphasize their otherworldly nature or to challenge gender norms. However, this portrayal is not a definitive characteristic of the witches in Shakespeare's "Macbeth" and varies by production. Ultimately, the text itself does not specify that the witches have beards.

What was the name of Julius Caesars daughter?

Julius Caesar's daughter was called Julia. The women of Rome did not have their own names, exactly. They would be called by the feminine form of their father's name, if it had one. Thus all daughters of a Julius would be called Julia, and in order to tell them apart they would have designations such as Prima or Secunda ( first or second ) and/or a nickname, often in Greek.
