Christopher 'James Bond' 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 Ovid . 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 Kit's plays include works such as The Famous Tragedy of the Rich Jew of Malta, Edward the Second , and the infamous Dr. Faustus. His most ambitious work was the heroic epic Tamburlaine the Great, a play in two parts of five acts each. This was in poem form, as all plays were then, but it has the added distinction of being the first play written in English blank verse. This may not seem terribly exciting, but bear in mind that it was Kit's pioneering use of blank verse that encouraged Shakespeare to try it

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). Marlowe's dramas have heroic themes, usually centering on a great personality who is destroyed by his own passion and ambition. Although filled with violence, brutality, passion, and bloodshed, Marlowe's plays are never merely sensational. The poetic beauty and dignity of his language raise them to the level of high art. Most authorities detect influences of his work in the Shakespeare canon, notably in Titus Andronicus and King Henry VI.

The nature of Marlowe's service was not specified by the Council, but their letter to the Cambridge authorities has provoked much sensational speculation, notably the theory that Marlowe was operating as a secret agent working for Sir

Two years later (1589), he was present when William Bradley was murder by Thomas Watson (the poet) and both where jailed. Thomas Watson was later acquitted on the grounds of self-defense and Marlowe was released after spending two weeks in the jail. During this time in jail, he may have become an acquaintance of John Poole, who was convicted of counterfeiting. Coincidentally, counterfeiting was one the charges brought against Marlowe by Richard Baines, some years later. It is also interesting to note that Thomas Watson was a friend of Thomas Walsingham, who later employed Marlowe. The Jew of Malta is estimated to have been written around this time. In the following year (1590) the first part of Tamburlaine was published with the authors name omitted. The play was an instant success among the public, but was not very well received among his peers. Two years later (1592) the second part of

12. Christopher Marlowe Christopher Marlowe. (15641593). Christopher Marlowe was born, two months before Shakespeare s birth, in Canterbury, the son of a shoemaker. http://faculty.acu.edu/~appletonl/mb1/marlowe.htm

Christopher Marlowe Christopher Marlowe was born, two months before Shakespeare's birth, in Canterbury, the son of a shoemaker. Although he was probably expected to enter his father's business, he was offered a scholarship by the Archbishop of Canterbury and entered Cambridge University, where he received a bachelor's degree in 1584 and a master's in 1587. Once again, he avoided the course his life was expected to take; instead of entering the clergy, he headed for London and the theatre. He was soon writing plays for an acting company, the Admiral's Men. Although he also wrote light verse, like "The Passionate Shepherd to His Love," his major works were tragedies, for which he is best known. His greatest works are: Tamburlaine (1587-88), in which the hero seeks limitless power; The Jew of Malta (1591), in which the hero seeks limitless wealth; The Tragical History of Dr. Faustus (1592), in which the hero seeks limitless knowledge. All Marlowe's heroes are "overreachers" who refuse to accept human limitations, true representatives of Renaissance humanism. All are humbly born but attain prominence before they die or are overturned by Fortune. Many believe that Marlowe himself shared their lust for attainment beyond the normal scope of man. Undoubtedly, he was a rebel, rejecting first his father's cobbler trade, then life as a cleric-even scoffing at religion and earning a reputation of being an atheist during a time when atheism was a state offense.

Welcome to the the Marlowe Society website Society News How to Join Encomium Marlowe's Work ... Links Detail from the 1585 portrait, believed to be of the 21-year-old Christopher Marlowe , at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge. The Objects of The Marlowe Society are to present Christopher Marlowe in his true light as a great poet and playwright, the innovator of blank verse drama; to encourage the performance of his plays; to discuss and study Elizabethan and Jacobean literature with particular attention to Marlowe's place in it; and to publish historically valid information about him based on research. The Marlowe Society is a registered charity whose objects are to provide develop and encourage the advancement of education for the public benefit in the field of Elizabethan literature and that of Christopher Marlowe in particular. The Marlowe Society is NOT devoted to proving that Marlowe was the true author of the Shakespeare canon. It is devoted to promoting the generally accepted works of Marlowe as the founder of English drama and the perfecter of dramatic blank verse. Without Marlowe as guide and leader, Shakespeare and the other Elizabethan poets and dramatists would not have achieved the reputation they enjoy today. There are, however, serious doubts about the record of Marlowe's death at Deptford in 1593, doubts recognised by the question-mark in the Marlowe memorial window unveiled in Poets' Corner of Westminster Abbey on 11 July 2002.
