Question

1. write an scr predicting whether caesar will heed artemidoruss warning. support your claim with textual evidence and valid reasoning. be sure to include: - tag (title, author, genre) - answer to the question - embedded text evidence with citation example: (ii.3.14-15) - commentary (2-3 sentences) write your response here!

Explanation:

First, identify the core text details (TAG). Then state the clear prediction about Caesar ignoring the warning. Embed direct textual evidence from the play that shows Caesar's dismissive attitude toward warnings, then explain how this evidence proves he will reject Artemidorus's message by linking it to his established pride and disregard for personal threats.

Answer:

• TAG: Julius Caesar, William Shakespeare, Tragedy
• Answer to the question: Caesar will not heed Artemidorus's warning.
• Embedded text evidence with citation: When the soothsayer warns Caesar to "beware the Ides of March," Caesar brushes him off, calling him a "dreamer" (I.2.24-25).
• Commentary: Caesar’s immediate dismissal of the soothsayer’s early warning reveals his arrogant belief in his own invincibility. He views personal warnings as the ramblings of unimportant people, so he will similarly dismiss Artemidorus’s written warning, prioritizing his public image and overconfidence over personal safety. This pattern of ignoring critical, targeted warnings makes it certain he will not act on Artemidorus’s message.
