S2E29: Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare by Unknown Friends

Shakespeare's tragedy about the assassination of Julius Caesar taps into timeless questions about honor, justice, pride, and wisdom, and the play ultimately requires audience members to interpret its characters and themes for themselves.

Pro tip! If you want to experience the play Julius Caesar for yourself, listen to the Folger Shakespeare Library's unabridged audio dramatization of the play (www.folger.edu/julius-caesar-audio-edition), available from Audible, Scribd, and other audiobook sources. It's a great production that helps make sense of some of Shakespeare's difficult diction and syntax, but I'd recommend following along in the text to make sure you keep track of who's speaking, as it can get a little confusing if you're just listening.
