Beware the Ides of March



 As talked about in class, Caesar decided to make himself dictator of Rome, and had himself honoured in a fashion that was reserved for Gods. This created enemies, and he was warned by a seer (somebody who can see the future) to beware the ides of March.

 Knowing something about how Caesar was acting like a God adds to the enjoyment of this video clip below from the Simpsons.



Et tu Brute-You too Brutus?! What Ceasar famously said to Brutus, who had been like a son to him, as Brutus stabbed him along with all the other Senators.
