In the play, The Tragedy of Julius Caesar, by William Shakespeare, Shakespeare uses the theme of friendship to show how easily people can be manipulated, but in the end, only true friendships cannot be defeated. Shakespeare creates different pairs of “friendships” throughout they play and it’s our job to determine whether these are true friendships or merely political. The theme of friendship is an overall major part of the play and it is what ends up determining some of the characters’ fate. In the end, we see friendships fall, people are murdered and it is an overall tragedy because characters were manipulated and some plotted against each other.
