This PowerPoint lesson guides the class through Act 1 scene 2 of Julius Caesar, exploring in detail the discussion between Cassius and Brutus and Cassius’ persuasive techniques. The conspirators’ views of Julius Caesar are examined along with Shakespeare’s stagecraft in juxtaposing the sound of the crowning ceremony with the discussion of Caesar’s hubris. Students are reminded of some of the core context to the play’s setting - the Roman Republic, the political tensions, and what the terms dictator and king mean to the people. The lesson concludes with an exam-style question on the portrayal of Cassius in this scene with hints and reminders about what to include in a written response. Ideal for GCSE students on the AQA course. 27 slides.
