Caesar is present in the forebodings and superstitions of
the conspirators, and the purpose of the second
triumvirate.
Brutus, Cassius, and Casca all make comments
about Caesar's power beyond the grave, and that his spirit is not at rest. They all
comment on his power when they take their own lives as opposed to being captured by
Octavius, Antony, and Lepidus (as weak as this leg of the Triumvirate is). This all
goes without mentioning the actual appearance of Caesar's ghost to Brutus when he
pledges to be at Philippa with the others.
