On the day of the feast of the Lupercal, Caesar walks among the people, receiving the glory from recent triumphs in battle. He lusts for power and has recently indicated his desire to be the emperor of Rome. There are many factions that do not want this kind of ruler.
Cassius encounters Brutus outside of the arena where the celebration is happening. Brutus appears troubled which seems the perfect time for Cassius to lay his plan before Brutus. He tells Brutus that he has been worried about him. Brutus answers that he is “at war with himself.”
When Brutus hears the crowd cheering, he states that he is afraid that they are offering Caesar the crown. This inspires Cassius to share his feelings with Brutus.

There is, however, another side to the question. The English stage was most flourishing in the time of Queen Elizabeth.

Their aim was to ennoble and elevate the audience, and imbue it with their own philosophy, by presenting noble characters working out their destiny amid trials and temptations, and their pictures, being essentially true to nature, acted as powerful incentives to the cultivation of morality.
Shakespeare stands preeminent among them all, because by his wealth of inspiring thought he gives food for reflection to the wisest, and yet charms all by his wit and humour and exhibits for ridicule follies and absurdities of men.
It is a great testimony to the universality of his genius that, even in translations, he appeals to many thousands of those who frequent Indian theatres, and who differ so much in thought, customs and religion from the audiences for which he wrote.
