Answer: He noticed that the songs upset Odysseus.

When Odysseus is at the court of Alcinous, the king hosts a banquet and games in honor of his guest. At that banquet, the blind man Demodocus is invited, and he sings about the quarrel between Odysseus and Achilles at Troy. Although everyone seems to enjoy the song, Odysseus is upset because it brings painful memories of the past. The king notices this, and he decides to end the feast.

Can anyone write a one page summary about the julius caesar play pleaseee :)
ANEK [815]

Here is a brief Julius Caesar summary:

The tribunes, Marullus and Flavius, break up a gathering of Roman citizens who seek to celebrate Julius Caesar’s triumphant return from war. The victory is marked by public games in which Caesar’s friend, Mark Antony, takes part. On his way to the arena Caesar is stopped by a stranger who warns that he should beware the ides of March.

Fellow senators, Caius Cassius and Marcus Brutus are suspicious of Caesar’s reactions to the power he holds in the Republic. They fear he will accept offers to become Emperor. Cassius, a successful general himself, is jealous, while Brutus has a more balanced view of the political position. Cassius, Casca, and their allies visit Brutus at night to persuade him of their views, and they plan Caesar’s death. Brutus is troubled but will not confide in his devoted wife, Portia.

On the 15th March Caesar is urged not to go to the Senate by his wife, Calphurnia, who has had dreams that he will be murdered, and she fears the portents of the overnight storms. He is nevertheless persuaded by flattery to go, and as petitioners surround him Caesar is stabbed and dies as Brutus gives the final blow. Against Cassius’s advice Mark Antony is allowed by Brutus to speak a funeral oration in the market place after Brutus has addressed the people of Rome to explain the conspirators’ reasons and their fears for Caesar’s ambition. Brutus calms the crowd, but Antony’s speech stirs them to riot and the conspirators are forced to flee from the city.

I hope it helped : )
