Christopher Marlowe 
The Complete Plays of Christopher Marlowe 

Support
Christopher Marlowe lived a life that echoed the violence in his plays. He was born in 1564 and was murdered in 1593 in what is speculated to be a political assassination. An educated man, he received both his B. A. and M. A. at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, where it is believed that he wrote Part I of ‘Tamberlaine’, and possibly ‘Dido Queen of Carthage’. Machiavellian themes are present in much of Marlowe’s work, the main characters constantly involved in a tumultuous upward climb toward unattainable infinite success. Marlowe’s perhaps greatest legacy was introducing blank verse into English theatre with ‘Tamburlaine The Great, Part I.’ This collection includes: ‘Dido Queen of Carthage’, ‘Tamburlaine, Parts I & II’, ‘The Jew of Malta’, ‘The Massacre At Paris’, ‘Edward The Second’, ‘The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus’, ‘The First Book of Lucan’, ‘Ovid’s Elegies’, and ‘Hero and Leander’.
