Julius Caesar In Plain and Simple English: A Modern Translation and the Original Version Paperback – March 16, 2012

This is good for anyone who doesn't speak elizabethan english. So basically everyone. The only caveat is, the plain English might be one sentence, where shakespeare has written a paragraph. If you want more of a line by line translation, I like "No Fear Shakespeare." If you're an English teacher, consider this one or No Fear Shakespeare for differentiated reading or scaffolding.

So easy to follow with this side-by-side Elizabethan and English copy. I read each scene and then watched it. Worth buying, you will get more out of your viewing experience.

I bought this book because I was unfamiliar with Shakespeare's plays and it really helped to have the modern translation.

This book is a great book for dumbing down JC. I wish that the Act and Scenes were indicated on every page in bold letters. This would make referencing a lot easier.

I bought this book in hopes that the formatting would be fixed but I guess not, I would really appreciate if the editors would fix this. I need this for school & this is the only annotated & translated version here.

Great help. Thanks!

I am not a literary reader, so with the translation, I was able to understand this masterpiece much better. Tremendous help to those who can't understand Shakespeare's originals.

You win some, you lose some. This wasn't a hit AT ALL. Although, I suppose you could use it for a literature class. It would go with a study guide if you are in to this type of literature.
