一《裘力斯·凯撒》(1599)是莎士比亚四部罗马剧的第一部,也是其中最杰出的一部。尽管在该剧中莎翁采用了他在英国历史剧中某些惯用的手法,但对这一悲剧的历史素材的处理和提高,他却显得匠心独运,与众不同。在诸如《亨利四世》或者《理查二世》这样的英国历史剧中,莎翁通常主要倾向于借用编年史材来进行描述,至剧本终了之时,王权统治的论点大都贯彻始终,很少更改。而在《凯撒》这一悲剧中,他却完全变换了方法。剧 A “Julius Caesar” (1599) is Shakespeare’s first four Roman plays, but also the most outstanding one of them. Although Shakespeare used some of his idiosyncratic practices in British historical plays in this play, he was very different and distinct in his handling of the historical material of the tragedy. In English historical plays such as “Henry IV” or “Richard II”, Shakespeare usually predominantly borrows chronological material for description. By the end of the script, most of the arguments for the reign of monarchy have been carried out, rarely change. In the tragedy of Caesar, he completely transformed the method. drama
