Julius caesar

writer- William Shakespeare


This blog has given me a chance to once again read my tenth standard book.".Julius Caesar".
Caesar’s life is captured in prose . We can read the  depth of knowledge and insight into the complex nature of Caesar’s story.The  scholastic work proves useful, as it brings fresh insight into understanding the life and character of this great Roman leader.It is shown the military leadership Caesar undertook and how it can influence our understanding of leadership in those days, as different from ours. Julius Caesar is presented in the context of human relationships he devised and others that shaped his life.The story also narrates cultural, religious and military landscape of the Roman republic in light of Caesar’s journey through life. Marius, Sulla, Pompey, Cicero are shown as partners in progress or dishonor. Sevilia and Cleopatra are accorded the plausible position Caesar gave them. The book contains 155 pages of well constructed account of a roman hero. It is written in well separated chapter properly linked and facilitated with ease of reading. The story of Julius Caesar is an interesting adventure of a bold man whose life is comparable to that of other great people like Alexandra, the Great. “I came, I saw, I conquered” those are his words; they clearly confirm his strength of character and charisma. He lived true to his dream, dedicated to the he wished and vehement in the pursuit of the same. In his pursuit of honor, the influence of his mother cannot be forgotten. He lost his father when he was only sixteen but his mother took him through the painfull lesson of life.

while reading the story i could clearly imagine the kind of spaces it would hav been in real life. The place rome is so well narated by the writer that one feels its presence. the way writer has explained the roman architecture like the pillars , statues and huge public places like the one in collosium, we can actualy understand how it would hav been in those days.
