Julius Caesar Act 4 scene 3

This full length lesson presentation guides students through the tense scene between Cassius and Brutus before the battle they now face. It considers their relationship in the context of the previous scenes and their position as conspirators who, although presented as nobly defending Rome, now face their inevitable death because of their actions. Dramatic techniques are considered and students are prompted to think about the way that Shakespeare has shaped the drama and brought about the crisis for these two characters.
