Shakespeare's plays about Roman history were based on North's translation of Plutarch. The elements he adapted were Cleopatra's decision to take refuge in her tomb or monument.
William Shakespeare drew inspiration for his plays about Roman history from North's translation of Plutarch, which also helped shape his idea of the tragic hero. Shakespeare copied entire paragraphs from North's version with just slight changes, which can be used to evaluate the literary quality of the work.
Besides the tone, there are additional differences in the content between Plutarch's work and Julius Caesar's. Shakespeare leaves out numerous important details from his play, like Porcia's attempt to prove her mettle by intentionally cutting herself on her thigh. Brutus and Portia's discussion of his problems, on the other hand, is left out by Plutarch.
