Join us live on Sunday April 7 at 4pm E / 1pm P as Professor Michael Delahoyde casts light upon the Oxfordian dimensions of Julius Caesar.
In this episode of Shakespeare Illuminated, our monthly series of play-by-play live events exploring the Shakespearean dramas, we ask (and answer!):
- Why is Julius Caesar such a staple in secondary school curricula?
- Why is the play focused more on Brutus than on Caesar?
- How do we explain the anachronisms and contradictions concerning time?
- What differences in the last two acts leave most audiences feeling disappointed?
Meantime visit Dr. Delahoyde’s website to brush up on the play. Want extra credit? Read Julius Caesar or watch this film adaptation with John Gielgud, Charlton Heston, and Jason Robards in advance.
On April 7, bring your questions for Q&A following the main Caesar presentation and while waiting don’t miss the Shakespeare Illuminated Much Ado About Nothing episode replay, now on Youtube.
The link to attend will be sent out via our mailing list closer to the actual date. Not on our email list? Sign up here!
We hope to see you there!
