在去论坛的路上发生了一件有趣的事…(A funny thing happened on the way to the Forum…)

我们在罗马论坛，或罗马论坛，为三月的ides，这一天作为朱利叶斯·凯撒遇刺的地点而闻名。虽然莎士比亚的凯撒被警告要“当心三月的末日”，但历史学家从未将这句话归因于那些向真正的凯撒透露了针对他的阴谋的人。我们知道，在公元前44年3月15日之前，凯撒被暗杀。后来，罗马陷入战争，结束了罗马共和国，并导致罗马帝国的崛起。

We're at the Roman Forum, or Forum Romanum, for the ides of March, a day made famous as the site of the assassination of Julius Caesar. While Shakespeare's Caesar was warned to 'beware the ides of March,' historians have never attributed the phrase to those who tipped off the actual Caesar about a plot against him. We do know that before March 15, 44 BCE was over, Caesar was assassinated. Afterward, Rome descended into war, ending the Roman Republic, and leading to the rise of the Roman Empire.
