Marlowe, Christopher
English dramatist and poet, b. Canterbury. Probably the greatest English dramatist before Shakespeare, Marlowe was educated at Cambridge and he went to London in 1587, where he became an actor and dramatist for the Lord Admiral's Company. His most important plays are the two parts of Tamburlaine the Great (c. 1587), Dr. Faustus (c. 1588), The Jew of Malta (c. 1589), and Edward II (c. 1592). [eng] |

Christopher Marlowe
Christopher Marlowe was born on 6 February 1564, the eldest son of a shoemaker. Apparently he was never really meant to follow in his father's footsteps (sorry), because he was very well educated, which, back then, meant that he could read and translate Ovid1. At 23, he went off to London and became the dramatist for the theatre company owned by Lords Admiral and Strange. Dramatist was a rotten job, really, but Christopher (or Kit, as he was often called) had several outside hobbies, like talking to his friend Sir Walter Raleigh, being an athiest, and getting arrested for an 'unspecified' offense.

Christopher Marlowe
THERE can be no question of the genius of Christopher Marlowe, nor of the far-reaching effect of his work on English drama. He dared disregard the classical unities in favor of a natural unity which comes from centering the action around one great character or great passion. He created an English drama in place of a slavish imitation of Greek and Latin dramas. He was, perhaps, the pioneer who blazed a trail for that still greater English dramatist born the same year, William Shakespeare. [eng] |

Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593)
Born the same year as Shakespeare, Christopher Marlowe was to become the first great poet of the theatre's second great age. His life, much like the lives of his characters, would be short and violent. [eng] |

Christopher Marlowe
Elizabethan poet, dramatist, and William Shakespeare's predecessor in English drama, whose reputation in his lifetime wasn't as good as Shakespeare's. Marlowe was killed at the age of 29 in a tavern broil by Ingram Frizer, and buried at St. Nicholas, Deptford. His dramatic career lasted only six years. And as we all know, English-born mystery writer Raymond Chandler lent Marlowe's name to his own hero Philip Marlowe. [eng] |
