SADDLEBACK CLASSICS

NOTES TO THE TEACHER THE PROGRAM

Saddleback Classics were expressly designed to help students with limited reading ability gain access to some of the world’s greatest literature. While retaining the essence and stylistic “flavor” of the original, each Saddleback Classic has been expertly adapted to a reading level that never exceeds grade 4.0. An ideal introduction to later, more in-depth investigations of the original works, Saddleback Classics utilize a number of strategies to ensure the involvement of reluctant readers: airy, uncomplicated page design, shortened sentences, easy-reading type style, elimination of archaic words and spellings, shortened total book length, and handsome illustrations. THE STUDY GUIDES

The Saddleback Classics Study Guides provide a wealth of reproducible support materials to help students extend the learning experience. Features include critical background notes on both the author and the times, character descriptions, chapter summaries, and seven “universal” exercises which may be used to follow up the reading of any Saddleback Classics novel or play. In addition to the universal exercises, 27 title-specific exercises are included to review, test, and enrich students’ comprehension as well as their grasp of important vocabulary and concepts. All reproducible, the worksheets provided 4

for Shakespeare’s plays are designed to be used act-by-act as the student’s reading of the play proceeds. Several exercises are provided for each act. One always focuses on key vocabulary. Others include a simple comprehension check and treatment of an important literary concept such as character analysis, point of view, inference, or figurative language. A three-page final exam is also included in every Saddleback Classics Study Guide. USING THE STUDY GUIDES

Before assigning any of the reproducible exercises, be sure each student has a personal copy of the Glossary and the Facts About the Author and About the Times. Students will need to be familiar with many of the literary terms in order to complete the worksheets. Obviously, the Facts About the Author and About the Times lend themselves to any number of writing, art, or research projects you may wish to assign. The title-specific exercises may be used as a springboard for class discussions or role-playing. Alternatively, you may wish to assign some exercises as homework and others as seatwork during the closing minutes of a class period. All exercises in this Guide are designed to accommodate independent study as well as group work. The occasional assignment of study partners or competitive teams often enhances interest and promotes creativity.

JULIUS CAESAR

FACTS ABOUT THE CHARACTERS Julius Caesar is a Roman statesman

and army general. Octavius is a Roman politician. Later, he is called Augustus Caesar, first Emperor of Rome. Mark Antony is a Roman politician, general, and friend of Caesar. Lepidus is a Roman politician. Marcus Brutus, Cassius, Casca, Trebonius, Ligarius, Decius Brutus, Metellus Cimber, and Cinna are

plotters against Caesar. Calpurnia is Caesar’s wife. Portia is Marcus Brutus’s wife. Cicero, Popilius, and Popilius Lena

Flavius and Marullus are tribunes. Cato, Lucilius, Titinius, Messala, and Volumnius are supporters of

Marcus Brutus. Artemidorus is a teacher of rhetoric. Cinna is a poet. Strato and Lucius are servants to Marcus Brutus. Pindarus is servant to Cassius. The Ghost of Caesar appears to Marcus Brutus. A soothsayer, a poet, senators, citizens, soldiers, commoners, messengers, and servants have

minor roles in the play.

are senators.

SUMMARIES BY ACT ACT 1

Flavius and Marullus are angry. They send home some commoners who are waiting to see Caesar enter Rome and remove banners honoring Caesar. Elsewhere, Caesar and his followers wait to watch a race for the feast of Lupercal. A soothsayer comes out of the crowd, telling Caesar to beware the ides of March. Brutus and Cassius speak about Brutus’s recent bad moods. Cassius hints that Brutus might be a better leader than Caesar. He talks about Caesar’s shortcomings and great ambition. Caesar refuses the crown three times when it is offered to him by Mark Antony. Cassius resolves to change Brutus’s mind about Caesar’s greatness. That night, a terrible storm rages in Rome. Strange sights are reported. Cassius and Casca talk about Caesar in negative terms. Cassius invites Casca to join him and some others in a plot against 6

Caesar. They agree that if Brutus were on their side, their chances of success would be much greater. Cassius and Casca decide to speak to Brutus in the morning. ACT 2

Brutus debates with himself how to best serve Rome. He knows that Caesar’s ambition is dangerous and decides it would be best for Rome if Caesar were dead. The plotters arrive in the morning, and Brutus promises to support them. Brutus rejects their idea of killing Mark Antony, too, saying that Antony is not dangerous without Caesar. At Caesar’s house, his wife, Calpurnia, tries to talk him out of going to the Capitol, as she has had nightmares about it, and she believes the night had been full of omens. To please her, Caesar agrees to stay home. But then Decius Brutus talks him into it, and Caesar leaves with all

the plotters for the Capitol. Artemidorus waits near the Capitol, hoping to have a chance to give a letter to Caesar. The letter warns him about his enemies. ACT 3

Artemidorus is unable to give his letter to Caesar before Caesar enters the Capitol. Shortly after the meeting in the Senate House begins, the plotters stab Caesar to death. Brutus is the last to stab Caesar. The dying Caesar turns to Brutus, saying Et tu, Brutè? (“You, too, Brutus?”) The plotters then start worrying about how they will explain this to the Roman citizens. When Antony wants a meeting to hear why Caesar had to die, Brutus agrees that Antony can come in safety. At the meeting, Antony asks permission to speak at Caesar’s funeral. The others agree that he can do so—but only after Brutus speaks. After the plotters leave, Antony sends a servant to Octavius, who is camping with his army 20 miles outside of Rome. The message is that Rome is too dangerous for Octavius just now, because of what has happened. At the Forum, Brutus speaks to the crowd, telling them the reason for his actions. Then Antony arrives, with Caesar’s body. When Antony gives his speech, the crowd’s sympathies shift from Brutus to Antony, especially after Antony reads Caesar’s will. People in the crowd decide to get revenge for Caesar’s death. Some run off with plans to burn down the houses of the traitors. ACT 4

Some time later, Antony, Octavius, and Lepidus meet and make plans about which conspirators must die. Brutus and

the other plotters have left Rome and are now in Greece with their armies. Brutus and Cassius argue and then make up. Brutus tells Cassius that he has learned that Portia is dead, having committed suicide out of grief. A messenger arrives with news that Octavius and Antony are marching toward them with a mighty army. The plotters make plans for their defense. They decide to march and meet their enemies at Philippi. That night, Caesar’s ghost appears to Brutus in his tent, telling him that he will see Brutus at Philippi. ACT 5

On the plains of Philippi, Octavius and Antony prepare for battle. Cassius and Brutus speak about the possibility of suicide if defeat seems imminent. Brutus says that he will fight to his death rather than commit suicide or be taken prisoner. In another part of the field, Cassius and Titinius discuss the battle. Cassius sends Titinius to another part of the field to find out if troops there are friends or enemies. When Titinius is surrounded by horsemen who are shouting for joy, Cassius thinks that Titinius has been captured. Thinking his side is losing, Cassius asks Pindarus to kill him, which Pindarus does. When Titinius returns with the news that he had met friends on the field, he finds Cassius’s body and realizes that Cassius has misunderstood everything. Titinius then kills himself in despair. Elsewhere, realizing he is losing the battle, Brutus runs onto his own sword as Strato holds it. Antony calls Brutus “the noblest Roman of them all” because he had honorable motives for what he did, and he promises to give him a decent burial. 7
