"I DONT LIKE YOU BECAUSE YOU DONT LIKE ME" - Reason for Cassius killing
Yeah right!😂
this 10 min explain more than a semester of school
BAtube Seriously why can't school be like this..
Utterly agree. So clear. An excellent retelling.
FACTS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
AGREED
we had half of a semester to read this and i did not learn anything
this nine minute video just taught me more than my English teacher ever has
Are there others here that are looking at this video just to get a summary for julius caesar because they did not read the book for a test tmr or is it just me
LMAO
Nope. Me too fam.
CoinSlotto aye I'm the 100th like😂
Test next period oops🙅🏻♂️
Don’t call me out
Shakespeare sure does love making his characters commit suicide...
UnicornMadison2000 same thought
Yeah. I ended up here because of the Christchurch massacre available on Ogrish TV. Heh...
It’s meant to signify their moral corruption as in Shakespeare’s time suicide was a sentence straight to hell. Hence characters kill themselves because their morals or minds are corrupted. It shows that there is something deeply wrong with the character
@@sniper.93c14 do they send themselves to hell because they know they were wrong or....
@@Jakethedogenjoyer in most times the characters are Pagan rather than Christian, it’s just that the audience interprets suicide as a sentence straight to hell (his audience was usually Christian nobility)
gonna nail that Literature test tomorrow
I know right! Me too... this video just explains it so well.
yep
Naomi Sitney theres a lot of detail errors tho so I'd look at other sources too
+Zoë Caldera hii you are in 10
+AshleyAnna hii you are in 10
Decius did more than say that Caesar would look weak if he didn't go to Capitol. He twisted the true meaning behind Calpurnia's dream into a way that would please Caesar (essentially telling him something he'd want to hear because he loves to be flattered). That's when Caesar makes the final decision that he is going to the Senate and then feels stupid about believing what Calpurnia had said.
Yes, Caesar's wife's dream was of Caesar's STATUE pouring blood and THE ROMANS BATHING IN IT. Then Decius twisted the dream's meaning by saying the blood bathing represented the Roman's being revived in Caesar's good blood! That part was left out for all of you with crazy teacher's, like mine, that make crazy hard tests everyone fails!!
I like how Decius we basically mansplaining Calpurnia. "Here's what her dream REALLY means..."
“It be your own squad. “ my short answer for my test 😂
Lmaooo
“Thy homies be fake bitches for they art jealous of thy”
beautiful
Like 111
Who else is here for a English exam??
Because of you I will hopefully have a great exam
same
I'm scared to have the final
damn finals lol
Howd it go
@@BonnieAnneFox was it great ?
Watching this the night before my test 😂😓
Norma Cruz lol me too. What’s up 😙
i got a test tmmrw aswell, a semster exam 120 min
I've noticed a couple of loopholes. There was no mention of how Antony pretended to praise the conspirators and seemed scheming in his soliloque. The will of Caesar during Antony's speech was doubted to be forged by Antony to trick the populous, as he asks to "bring me Caesar's will" to a servant after he has read it. Also, the point of Antony and Octavius arguing with each other to foreshadow future conflicts between the two, and to make the two seem ambitious and fighting over power and the last word.
it’s a SHORT summary. I don’t get why you expect everything to be mentioned...
@Khanyani Khumalo loop holes? plot holes?
Stuff like this is mad helpful when you have trouble reading literally everything and Shakespearean works have me falling asleep
i passed my test without actually sitting down and really reading this book. and for that i thank you greatly.
can you explain what the test was like please
@@xoxo8321bro commented 11 years later😭
Excellent summary. I hope that you guys get video summaries like this one for all the books you summarize. The video helps to see the story unfold. very helpful
Read this in grade 9 and loved it and still remember every dialogue of play. I guess Jon Snow's assassination in Night Watch was inspired from this where his each Night's watch brother stabs him and he is most surprised at Olly who stabs him last, bringing "Et tu Brute" moment !!!
This video is a life saver! Thank you soo much, this is going to be great in my drama homework!
this is literally the best channel i have ever discovered
THANKYOU. I CAN NOW PASS ENGRISH
exactly! so true!
I KNOW RIGHT!!?!! our finals is based on this xD
LOL
Not if u spell English with an r
*english
I came here jst because im lazy to read the whole book :/
+kumar Quiroz same, my teacher made me write an essay on it and im just here summarizing the video
+NNJATV same
+NNJATV lol me too
+kumar Quiroz lol i came here because i didnt want to read the book over and over to understand it
+kumar Quiroz yep, actually have a final with 90 questions on julius caesar. Got the whole story but I don't think this video can take up 90 questions. :/
Thank you very much!!!! Helped me a lot , because I have dyslexia and can't learn as fast as the others . Thanks again.
These illustrations are really fun :D The one with the ghost looks pretty badass, too.
Wow, this was actually really helpful even if I've read the play a couple of times already. Thanks a bunch!
Thank you so much. This is extremely helpful and has helped my understanding of this play.
Thanks for making this video! This helps a ton with English midterms!
OMG!! This is great a help before exams!!who the hell gonna read the complete book..that too Shakespeare's language....
Won't you need to read the book to analyse the speeches...
_Wow... This is awesome_
Yes - it is.
this was so helpful thank u❤️ I have a college audition tomorrow and I forgot I had to know about the entire context of the play if they ask haha
Wow!! Thank you for that. I am strongly drawn to this story.
Its dramatised the real events are even more intresting
I love Julius Caesar and this is my favorite story!!!!
Test tomorrow, this video just saved me. Thank you!
Thank you for this summary.
finally i can write my essay! thank you so much!
Really Thank you.. you don't know how much you help.
thank u for helping me with my homework.
Great work I like it and a very brief and concise summary
What a good story... I loved this book.
I don't think Brutus was a fool but he certainly was an idealist. I think the play shows how the path to hell can be paved with good intentions and how idealists can be manipulated by others for their own personal gain.
this helped me alot with my theatre examination thanks!
This helped a lot, I have a quiz next period THANK YOUUU
Great, Great summary 🙏🏾
Great background info and summary - cool sketches!! Thanks!!! (I'm preparing "Friends, Romans..." for an audition)
thank you so so much, you saved my finals
well this is a really good explanation , great job mate!
this is really wonderful, great work!
It’s 11:00 and I have a test on this in 10 hours. I didn’t even know what this story was about until now. We’ll see how this goes...
I’m a little late but did u pass
@@brianrebechi7724 I forgot I even made this comment BAHAHHAHA
@@brianrebechi7724 I THINK I did but I honestly can’t remember. Good luck man
Marvel fans after FH: "Et tu Steve Rogers?!"
great summary . Helped me a lot
I wouldn't say that Julius Caesar's death was exactly his fault by his"arrogance". It's believed that he actually knew about the conspiracy and went through his death on purpose.I honestly believe this is correct because Julius' life was pretty messed up through a time:He was sent to war a lot, he was old and also suffered from epilepsy.Julius was very VERY smart, yes arrogant a little but still I admit I would go through the assassination.
I am failing to see the logic in your assesment:
>Try to be a king
>Literally attempt to put a Persian Emperor Tiara on your head to check the waters
>Have a change of heart in the final moment because muh cause
>Get your sickly pleb nephew to be your successor
>Pleb nephew is klls your own son and children of your other Side Hoes
>He dies without a successor
>Children of your nephews enemy and the Opium addict guy who does your dirty jobs inherit the throne
>They fk up hard, after bunch of ok to bad Julio-Claudian emperors another civil war starts
>A random exiled senator (who was popular amongst the Senate because he was a funny guy) conquers Rome.
>???
>Profit
very well done, excellent summary

+Joshua de souza I love m English teacher... I have a crush on her
+どうぶつの森ジュリアちゃん * my
SAMEEE. 90% of English teachers are downright awful and anyone that disagrees is NOT in High School in the year of 2017. (I'm not saying all are awful so don't get triggered😂😫)
AshleyAnna now my 11th grade English teacher for 2nd semester is a bitch
Brian Arnold same dude
"Julius Caesar isn't so much about Caesar the character as it is about the assassination and what happened after it." Just like Oliver Stone's JFK.
