I think Shakespeare’s portrayal of the event in the play is the most artful expression of fiction as fact that has ever been designed in all of literature.
I understand. I did a lot of visual and graphic things and artsy-craftsy things instead of just reading and writing with my 11th graders. Taught American history 33 years in Miami, Florida.

I’ll bet it may have been surprisingly like that in the minutes before the assassination.

Presbyterians don’t recognize it. Only 13 Saints, the Disciples and Paul. Besides the Irish piss on Columbus Day.

How clever. I wish I’d had these cartoons when I was teaching Julius Ceasar to 9th graders!
