Which statement is true about the events depicted in Shakespeare's Julius Caesar?

A.
The events are symbolic of the jealous attacks that Shakespeare endured when he first made a name for himself as a writer in London.

B.
The events happened just as Shakespeare depicts them, which means the play is historically accurate.

C.
The events actually took place over the course of several years, not over a short time as Shakespeare suggests.

D.
The events actually happened in Elizabethan England, not in ancient Rome as Shakespeare suggests.

Sagot :

C. The events actually took place over the course of several years, not over a short time as Shakespeare suggests.

Shakespeare's play "Julius Caesar" is heavily based on Plutarch's "Lives of Noble Grecians and Romans." In "Lives of Noble Grecians and Romans", Plutarch shows that the events took place over the course of some years, but that sort of format would have been impossible for a 3 hour play. So Shakespeare had to change it to be over a short period of time.
I agree with C but do you think it is correct?
