Hello, I was never a big fan of Shakespeare (shocking, I know) until I read Julius Caesar last winter. As a child, Shakespeare actually grew up receiving a rigorous education in history, Latin, and many other subjects. When writing Julius Caesar, Shakespeare had to ensure that it was somewhat historically accurate, as well as exciting enough to entice viewers whom were already familiar with this part of history. Being the history nerd that I am, I was very intrigued by Julius Caesar and would now consider it my favorite play. After reading John Green's infamous, The Fault in Our Stars, I wondered where Green really got the idea for the title from. Once I read Julius Caesar, I immediately made a connection. Cassius says, "The fault, dear Brutus, is not in our stars, But in ourselves, that we are underlings." An extremely modern and widely-read novel somewhat inspired by a Renaissance-era tragedy; anyone else make the connection? I didn't find the right solution from the Internet.
