In Julius Caesar, Shakespeare uses Ovidian transformations to emphasize the importance of looking to marginalized figures and victims rather than to violent conquerors for examples of resilience during times of national instability. The key to the play's depiction of such transformations lies in its use of Ovid's Metamorphoses, which is all about transformations of space and bodies. After his death, the play's central character, Julius Caesar, demonstrates a significant affinity with Ovidian women, animals, and landscapes. The non-human and feminine characteristics that Caesar assumes enable him to rise from the dead and participate in the defeat of his assassins. Shakespeare's play uses transformations like Caesar's metamorphosis from a mutilated corpse into a vengeful ghost to explore ideologies of imperialism and patriarchy. Caesar's spectral transgression of the boundaries that divide life and death speaks to the play's larger interest in deconstructing hierarchical divisions of species and gender.
