Julius Caesar

Shakespeare's diction was blank verse, rhyme and prose.

Some Romans Loved him and some didn't. It is not said which type of people loved him more.

The petition about Publius Cimber was an excuse to approach Julius Caesar Plutarch did not say why Caesar exiled Publius Cimber.

The tragedy in Julius Caesar lies not in the death of Julius Caesar, but in the failure of Brutus and Cassius to adapt themselves to conditions after his death. Cassius fails, not because he lacks ability, but because he allows his prejudice against Caesar to impact his character, He also fails because he allows his friendship with Brutus to overrule his better judgment. Brutus Fails because he is an idealist who lacks the practical judgment to be a good leader.

Julius Caesar won many famous battles. Among them are Alesia, where he defeated Vercingetorix, Pharsalus, where he defeated Pompey, Munda, where e defeated Gaius Pompey, and Thebaid, where he defeated Cato.

Later he replaced Gaius with Imepator (victorius commander) and his name became Imperator Caesar Divi Filius.When he became the first Roman emperor the title of Augustus (the Venerable One) was bestowed on him by the senate. He dded this title to his name, which became Imperator Caesar Divi Filius Augustus (the Victorious Commander, the Son of the Divine Caesar, the Venerable One)

Rulers, lovers, greatness, power

Julius Caesar was appointed as a dictator four times. Rome was still a republic, even when Caesar was appointed as dictator for life. To the Romans the term dictator did not have the same meaning as it has today. The dictator was an extraordinary officer of state with extraordinary powers which was created under the Republic. He was normally appointed by the consuls (the two annually elected heads of the Republic) given a specific mandate established by senatorial decree and a term of office of 6 months to deal with emergencies.

Julius Caesar had obtained the dictatorship three times prior to becoming dictator for life in 44 BC. He had himself first appointed dictator in 49 BC to preside over his own election as consul and resigned from the post after 11 days. He then was appointed dictator for one year in 48 BC. Although this was more than the usual 6 months of the term of this office, it was not totally unprecedented. Another man, Lucius Cornelius Sulla, had been appointed dictator for one year 33 years earlier. Caesar started fully breaking the mould in 47 BC when he had himself appointed dictator for 10 years.

Julius Caesar was so popular among the middle and lower classes (plebeians) that they did not mind him being a dictator for life. He was seen as the hero of the people and the protector of the poor.

Also note that a Republic is a state which is not ruled by a king, emperor or an aristocrat (as with a principate or a duchy). That is all that is required for the definition of a republic. A republic can have any political regime apart from the ones mentioned above. It can be a democracy, an authoritarian state, a dictatorship or a totalitarian state. There have been many republics which have been dictatorships in recent history. Communist are republics. Nazist Germany was a republic.

The greatest Roman legacy is Christianity. It originated from Judea, which was part of the Roman Empire and spread around this empire. It developed into two mainstream branches: Latin/Western Christianity and Greek/Eastern Christianity. The former was the main form of Christianity in the western part of the Roman Empire and the latter was the main form of Christianity in the eastern part. Later they came to be called Catholic and Orthodox respectively.

The emperor Constantine the Great supported Christianity and convoked the ecumenical council of Nicaea in 325. This was the first attempt to attain consensus among Christians through an assembly of clergy from all the Christian doctrines. It established the Nicene Creed, which was the creed of mainstream Christianity (Latin and Greek Christianity). However, it did not end the bitter conflict between mainstream Christianity and dissident Christian doctrines.

All the emperors of the Later Roman Empire after Constantine but one were Christians. In 380 the co-emperors Gratian and Theodosius the Great issued the edict of Thessalonica, which made mainstream Christianity the sole religion of the empire and banned dissident Christian doctrines, branding then as heretic. Theodosius persecuted the dissident doctrines, particularly Arian Christianity, which was popular around the empire. He also persecuted pagan religions. The actions of these Christian emperors established Latin and Greek Christianity as the religion of the empire. Later they spread to the rest of Europe.
