This article is about Shakespeare's play. For other uses, see Julius Caesar (disambiguation).
Julius Caesar, one of William Shakespeare's plays, may have been written as the first of his plays to be performed at the Globe, in 1599. For it, he turned to a key event in Roman history: Caesar's death at the hands of friends and fellow politicians. Renaissance writers disagreed over the assassination, seeing Brutus, a leading conspirator, as either hero or villain. Shakespeare's play keeps this debate alive.
Julius Caesar was printed in the 1623 First Folio. Sources include North's translation of Plutarch's Lives.[1]
