Shakespeare also shows the reader the events that take place after Julius Caesar's death. The overall theme of this play is keep your Friends close but your enemies closer.



Assessment:
This Book is great whether you read it as a book or act it out as a play. It was surprising at how Shakespeare dared to word this play, and got away with it because at that time period because most people back then did not speak that way. He dared to defy the mode of what a play was at that time. The message that this book carries with it is that no matter how close you think you are with someone that person could be thinking a whole other thing and there is no way that you could know their mind set. This book affects its readers because it makes them aware of the ability to use symbolization in the simplest text. It changes the way people think in the way that because Shakespeare like to use symbolization it tailors the readers mind to think about symbolization when reading
