Their texts fully restored by recent scholarship, Marlowe's astonishing works can now be appreciated as originally written. For the first time, this edition boasts the complete plays - including two versions of Doctor Faustus. Blasphemy, perversion, defiance and transgression ... in a series of compelling tragedies, Marlowe challenged every authority of heaven and earth. From the proud wrath of Tamburlaine, the tyrant of Asia, to the racked anguish of Edward II, himself in thrall to unspeakable desires; from God's own Machiavel, the Duke of Guise, to Barabas, the Jew of Malta, curse of Christianity: all are taboo-breakers, to be broken in their turn. And in the tragedy of Doctor Faustus we perhaps read Marlowe's own: a tale of brilliance and audacity - and of terrible, inexorable punishment. Their texts fully restored by recent scholarship, Marlowe's astonishing works can now be appreciated as originally written. For the first time, this edition boasts the complete plays - including two versions of Doctor Faustus.

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".

Not illustrated. 1912 edition. Excerpt: ... Gav. My lord, these titles far exceed my worth. Kent. Brother, the least of these may well suffice For one of greater birth than Gaveston. K. Edw. Cease, brother: for I cannot brook these words. 160 Thy worth, sweet friend, is far above my gifts, Therefore, to equal it, receive my heart; If for these dignities thou be envied, I'll give thee more; for, but to honour thee, Is Edward pleased with kingly regiment. Fear'st thou thy person? thou shalt have a guard: Wan test thou gold? go to my treasury: Wouldst thou be loved and feared? receive my seal; Save or condemn, and in our name command Whatso thy mind affects, or fancy likes. 170 Gav. It shall suffice me to enjoy your love, Which whiles I have, I think myself as great As Caesar riding in the Roman street, With captive kings at his triumphant car. Enter the Bishop of Coventry K. Edw. Whither goes my lord of Coventry so fast? B. of Cov. To celebrate your father's exequies. But is that wicked Gaveston returned? K. Edw. Ay, priest, and lives to be revenged on thee, That wert the only cause of his exile. Gav. 'Tis true; and but for reverence of these robes, Thou should'st not plod one foot beyond this place, mt B. of Cov. I did no more than I was bound to do; And, Gaveston, unless thou be reclaimed, As then I did incense the parliament, So will I now, and thou shalt back to France. Gav. Saving your reverence, you must pardon me. K. Edw. Throw off his golden mitre, rend his stole, And in the channel christen him anew. Kent. Ah, brother, lay not violent hands on him For he'll complain unto the see of Rome. 190 Gav. Let him complain unto the see of hell; I'll be revenged on him for my exile. K. Edw. No, spare his life, but seize upon his goods: Be thou lord bishop and receive his rents, And...

Excerpt from The Plays of Christopher Marlowe Christopher Marlowe, a Canterbury shoemakers son, was born in the same year as Shakespeare, 1564, ten years after John Lyly, seven after Kyd, six after Peele, four after Greene, and three before Nash. He was at Kings School, Canterbury, and at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge; but we know nothing of him at either place, except that he became Bachelor of Arts in 1583. In the ten years left to him of life he wrote the two parts of Tamburlaine the Great, Doctor Faustus, The Jew of Malta, Edward the Second, The Massacre at Paris, Dido, Queen of Carthage, and may have handled and partly or largely written many other plays, including The True Tragedy, printed in this volume, also the first two cantos of Hero and Leander, a lyric, and another lyric of which only a fragment survives. Probably at Cambridge, or during that period, he translated parts of Ovid and of Lucan, and immediately after leaving Cambridge he may have gone to the wars in the Low Countries where Sidney died in 1586. Certain it is that by 1587 the play of Tamburlaine had been written and performed. Of his contemporaries Lyly had already written Alexander and Campaspe, Sapho, Gallathea, Endimion. Peele sArraignment of Paris had appeared about 1581, when he was of the same age as the Marlowe who wrote Tamburlaine. Greenes Friar Bacon has been also attributed to the year 1587, but 1591 is a more probable date. The first English tragedy in blank verse and of something like the type afterwards to be established, the Gorbuduc of Norton and Sackville, had been performed as early as 1561. It lacked the new life of the Renaissance which had kindled it as much as it did the old life of the past age and the miracle plays. It was written in blank verse of a lifeless regularity and monotony that has a slight charm only occasionally, as in: Are they exiled out of our stony breasts Never to make return? By no exaggeration can it be called a dramatic poem at all. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
