For it, he turned to a key event in Roman history: Caesar's death at the hands of friends and fellow politicians. Renaissance writers disagreed over the assassination, seeing Brutus, a leading conspirator, as either hero or villain. Shakespeare's play keeps this debate alive. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eThis edition includes: \u003cbr\u003e -Freshly edited text based on the best early printed version of the play\u003cbr\u003e -Newly revised explanatory notes conveniently placed on pages facing the text of the play\u003cbr\u003e -Scene-by-scene plot summaries\u003cbr\u003e -A key to the play's famous lines and phrases\u003cbr\u003e -An introduction to reading Shakespeare's language\u003cbr\u003e -An essay by a leading Shakespeare scholar providing a modern perspective on the play\u003cbr\u003e -Fresh images from the Folger Shakespeare Library's vast holdings of rare books\u003cbr\u003e -An up-to-date annotated guide to further reading \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eEssay by Coppélia Kahn \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e​The Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington, DC, is home to the world's largest collection of Shakespeare's printed works, and a magnet for Shakespeare scholars from around the globe.

When he was eighteen, he married Anne Hathaway. The couple had three children--an older daughter Susanna and twins, Judith and Hamnet. Hamnet, Shakespeare's only son, died in childhood. The bulk of Shakespeare's working life was spent in the theater world of London, where he established himself professionally by the early 1590s. He enjoyed success not only as a playwright and poet, but also as an actor and shareholder in an acting company. Although some think that sometime between 1610 and 1613 Shakespeare retired from the theater and returned home to Stratford, where he died in 1616, others believe that he may have continued to work in London until close to his death. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eBarbara A.
