Julius Caesar
Act Four Scene Three
At the end of this scene Brutus sees Caesars ghost.
Now this scene puzzles me as I don’t understand the point of this. The Ghost does nothing significant apart from say I’ll see you later (Which we don’t see and is only reported by Brutus
When questioned “Who are you?” it replys “Your evil spirit, Brutus”
Now, could it be all in Brutus’ imagination? He is half asleep at the time and could be at the stage between asleep and awake where dreams seem real. He guilty conscience manifests this apparition to accuse him.
What do you think? Is it the ghost of Caesar or all in his mind?
