A definitive new collection of Marlowe's plays with a critical introduction by Frank Romany containing- 'Dido Queen of Carthage', 'Tamburlaine the Great Parts One and Two', 'The Jew of Malta', 'Doctor Faustus', 'Edward II' and 'The Massacre of Paris'
Marlowe's seven plays dramatise the fatal lure of potent forces, whether religious, occult or erotic. In the victories of Tamburlaine, Faustus's encounters with the demonic, the irreverence of Barabas in THE JEW OF MALTA, and the humiliation of Edward II in his fall from power and influence, Marlowe explores the shifting balance between power and helplessness, the sacred and its desecration.
