This book offers a lively introduction to all of the plays of Christopher Marlowe and to the central concerns of his age, many of which are still important to us--religious uncertainty, the clash between Islam and Christianity, ideas of sexuality, and the rôle of the marginalised inidividual in society.Each chapter focuses on a specific aspect of Marlowe''s work and its cultural contexts: Marlowe''s life and death; the Marlowe canon; the theatrical contexts and stage history of the plays; Marlowe''s interest in old and new branches of knowledge; the ways in which he transgresses against established norms and values; and the major issues which have been raised in critical discussions of his plays.
