De las treinta y siete obras atribuidas al autor inglés William Shakespeare, seis de ellas tratan sobre temas relacionados con la antigua Roma. En esta oportunidad nos ocuparemos de La tragedia de Julio César que escenifica la muerte del líder romano (44 a.C.) a manos de Bruto y Casio. El propósito del presente trabajo será, pues, revelar el modelo romano shakespeareano escenificado durante la época premoderna. El análisis de la obra incluirá breves comentarios histórico-revisionistas de la Inglaterra isabelino-jacobina; y se abordará desde el andamiaje idiosincrático del drama histórico romano de Shakespeare, según los postulados de Robert Miola (2002, 2004). En varios trabajos dedicados al estudio de la antigua Romarepresentada en los escenarios renacentistas, el profesor Miola pone de manifiesto las tensiones de una antigüedad clásica caracterizada, en la modernidad temprana, por lo distinto o diferente (violencia) y la identidad o similitud (retórica) en relación con la construcción histórica, ideal y estereotipada de ese pasado.
