Julius Caesar

He says that Cassius has an "itching palm," and is corrupting their noble cause by resorting to extortion in order to gain wealth for their armies. He also, ironically, is angry because Cassius has not sent him money since Brutus can "raise no money by vile means." He seems most troubled by the fact that the nobility of their assasination seems to be threatened. He is also most likely less composed than he has been throughout the play because he has just received news of the death of his wife, Portia.

Which region did caesar annex to the roman state?

Titus Livius known as Livy in English, was a Roman historian who wrote a monumental history of Rome, Ab Urbe Condita, from its founding (traditionally dated to 753 BC) through the reign of Augustus in Livy's own time.

Strictly. His mother, Aurelia, was surprisingly involved a lot with his upbringing + discipline, a job usually reserved for the father. Not much is known about Caesar's childhood as Romans considered children like weak + mini adults, not worth the notice of historians.

Augustus Caesar was a ruler because he earned the position by winning the civil war, rebuilding the city, bringing a lasting peace to the empire and his other social and political reforms.

Caesar fought at sea as a young officer against the Cilician pirates, then subdued risings in Further Spain as governor.

He conquered Gaul in a 10 year campaign, invaded Britain but after conquering it and establishing an annual tribute on it, came home as he did not have the resources to leave a garrison.

He then fought a civil war with Pompey and defeated him in Greece, gaining political control of Rome.

When he was assassinated he was preparing to campaign against the Parthians to gain control of Mesopotamia and Persia in Alexander's footsteps. He would have surpassed Alexander (as was everyone's dream) as Alexander didn't gain control of the west. However Caesar had made the mistake of being declared Dictator for Life, and that or course invited ending his life.

A Wreath was a symbol of honour in Rome. According to Conn Iggulden book Julius first earnt the wreath on the island of Lesbos, Greece during his days in the legion after he showed bravery when seizing a fort in Mytilene

Antony recognizes Brutus as noble and virtuous.

Julius Caesar was not actually an emperor, but a dictator. His career was such, however, that his very name became short-hand for imperial authority, not only in Latin, but in most of the languages of modern Europe. Other men conquered more land than Caesar did--he only made an expedition to Britain and conquered parts of modern day France. Other men enacted more sweeping legal and moral reforms--he allowed the status quo to continue mostly intact, and only innovated by reforming the calendar. Finally, other men ruled their nations for longer periods--Caesar died after only a few years in office following a bitter civil war with the senatorial faction. So, what's so special about Julius Caesar? He was instrumental in the transition from Republican government to Imperial Autocracy in ancient Rome; his family's eventual one hundred year dominance over the Empire ensured that his name would be remembered forever ("Caesar" as a title, and the month of "July" as an honor to his legacy). He was a witty, eloquent writer who justified his campaigns in his own books. He was usually gentlemanly/chivalrous to those he defeated (though not always). Finally, he was a military genius who won great acclaim on the battlefield against both Romans and non-Romans. In short, Julius Caesar is like a personification of the values of pagan Rome--an ambitious politician who dedicated his life to the pursuit of power and the extension of Roman culture. If Caesar was less personally influential than other rulers (even his own great-nephew, Augustus), his world and the success he found in it have ensured that he will be always treasured as the human face of Western Europe's greatest political success story. Another J. C. betrayed by a close friend would be born a hundred years after Caesar and represent a very different side of classical antiquity--one that would ultimately eclipse even Caesar's legacy.

The only description we have of him (besides his portrait busts) is given by the ancient writer, Seutonius. According to Seutonius, Caesar was tall, fair, well-built and had piercing brown eyes. It is also known that he was balding.

Julius Caesar did not want to be a "king" in the strict sense of the word. King was a nasty word to the Romans. But Caesar did want all the power, so he was satisfied with the title and powers of a dictator. The reasons for his power-grab were because of his impatience with the slow moving senate, the resistance to some of his reforms and his own ego.

Epilepsy and quest to reunite Rome after Diocletian totally ruined it by splitting it into 2 halves. Uh, actually that last was Justinian, about 400 years after Julius Caesar. He did have epilepsy though.

There could have been anywhere from 30 to 40 conspirators in the plot against Caesar. All of them did not actually take part in the physical murder, but they were aware of the plot.

The reasons for Julius Caesar's death were that he had attained too much power and that he was undermining the principles of the republic.

No, he was a military general who fought bravely and got support from back home all by himself without bribery.

Are you out of you mind? He was notorious for bribery. He even bragged about it on multiple occasions. Look at this; "He announced his candidacy for the office of pontifex maximus, resorting to the most lavish bribery. Thinking on the enormous debt which he had thus contracted, he is said to have declared to his mother on the morning of his election, as she kissed him when he was starting for the polls, that he would never return except as pontifex. And in fact he so decisively defeated two very strong competitors (for they were greatly his superiors in age and rank), that he polled more votes in their tribes than were cast for both of them in all the tribes."Seutonius Life of Caesar

pompey the great one time ally of Julius caesor led an army against Julius Caesor to contend who would rule rome. Pompey took his army to Greece where he planned to gain more legions. he was eventualy defeated by Caesor at the battle of pharsulus despite outnumbering Caesor. he fled to Egypt where he was assassinated by the egyptians NOT Caesor.

Casca is terrified by the storm that opens Act 1 Scene 3. He says "never till tonight, never till now, / Did I go through a tempest dropping fire"(9-10). He imagines there must be "civil strife" in heaven to produce such a storm etc

Brutus thinks Cassius as his mirror , who takes his bad habits and reflects them into good habits. As we see in Act I , When Brutus cannot decide that should he join the Conspirators , Cassius tells him about Caesar's physical problems , his political views about Cassius.

So , Brutus feels Cassius as his noble friend , who will always be his mirror to guide him through the darkness.

The story is from Plutarch, though Suetonius also records it.

Caesar is supposed to have made the communication after the battle of Zela, where he defeated Pharnaces II.

There are various theories why Caesar expressed himself so tersely:- one possibility is that he thought the battle against Pharnaces (a minor king of Pontus) was being given more attention than it deserved.
