NOTES
"[The translators] have paired their new translation of Plutarch's life of Julius Caesar with Shakespeare's popular play Julius Caesar. With ... annotations on both texts, the Hickses reveal Shakespeare's debt to Plutarch as well as Plutarch's relationship to other classical sources. A truly interdisciplinary work, the annotations note everything from historical context to literary allusions"--Flap page 1 of dust jacket
