TASK #1: Inquire into the lives of the Conspirators
The objective of Task #1, now that we've successfully completed reading William Shakespeare's Julius Caesar, is to inquire into the lives of the conspirators who assassinated Caesar. During your investigation, you will have to research the lives of the key conspirators highlighted below. Along with this, you will also be asked to complete both the inquiry and sources charts that can be downloaded at the bottom of this page. The information that you compile onto your charts will be used again in Task #2.
To get your search off on the right track, each conspirator has an attached link that will direct you to an initial and reliable website. It will be up to you to strengthen your inquiry by investigating and analyzing different websites and sources for information.
