| Summary | "The Tragedy Of Caesar's Revenge" by Frederick S. Boas is a dramatic play written in the early 20th century. The work explores the themes of ambition, betrayal, and the tragic consequences of civil strife, focusing on historical figures such as Julius Caesar, Pompey, and Brutus. As a reprint of a work that reflects the stylistic elements of the late Elizabethan era, it delves into the complexities of power dynamics in ancient Rome. At the start of the play, the prologue introduces a sense of catastrophic conflict, heralded by the character of Discord, who articulates the chaos of civil war and the downfall of heroes. The opening scenes unfold with the aftermath of the battle at Pharsalia, showcasing the despair of Brutus and Pompey as they grapple with defeat and the loss of their glorious reputation. Characters express their grief in vivid poetic language, highlighting the personal and moral dilemmas they face in the wake of their ambitions and the shifting tides of fortune. Pompey’s lamentation reveals his sense of betrayal and hopelessness as he confronts his imminent doom, setting the stage for the interplay of fate and free will that will drive the narrative forward.
