This volume presents two powerful tragedies by the Elizabethan playwright Christopher Marlowe. Dido, Queen of Carthage reimagines the classical tale of Aeneas and Dido, exploring themes of love, betrayal, and destiny against the backdrop of ancient mythology. The Massacre at Paris plunges into the brutal historical events of the St. Bartholomew's Day Massacre, offering a stark portrayal of religious conflict and political intrigue in 16th-century France. Both plays showcase Marlowe's distinctive dramatic verse and his profound engagement with human ambition and its tragic consequences.
