Beware of the ides of March It is not just about literature, It is about history. Julius Cesar was killed on this day 44BC. Et tu brute! On the Julian calendar march 1 was the new year There was a festival that went from march 1 -15 Every month has an ides, most ides fall on the 13 But in march it falls on the 15th. It is said to be the unluckiest day of the year. A Raid on Southern England, march 15, 1360 A French raiding party begins a 48-hour spree of rape, pillage and murder in southern England. King Edward III interrupts his own pillaging spree in France to launch reprisals. Czar Nicholas II Abdicates His Throne, march 15 1917 his family were taken captive and so began bulshavik rule. There are other things that happened on march 15.
No I did not because you called it literature, Implying that it was a masterpiece of written artistic literary work. Et tu brute, Latin for even you, Brutus, was a quote from Shakespeare's play Julius Caesar. I didn't want to read Shakespeare's Julius Caesar again.
