Technology Summary Faustus was born into lowly circumstances. He studies hard and masters all the knowledges known to man, but he is still dissatisfied. Faustus determines to study magic, the one knowledge that can break the limits of all others. He engages two master magicians to teach him. While he awaits their arrival, a good and an evil angel appear. The good angel urges him not to go through with his plans, but Faustus is determined. He learns quickly and for his first act calls up Mephistophilis, Satan's messenger. Faustus is very pleased, thinking he has control over the forces of evil, but Mephistophilis says he only showed up because Faustus had rejected God. Faustus offers to give his soul to Lucifer if Mephistophilis will wait on him for twenty-four years. Lucifer agrees. Faustus is not troubled by this pact because he does not believe in eternal life. With Mephistophilis' help, Faustus makes a great career for himself. He amazes the Pope by becoming invisible and stealing things from his hands. He calls forth the spirit of Alexander the Great for the Emperor. As his twenty-four years draw to a close, he begins to fear Satan and nearly repents. Instead, he asks Mephistophilis to bring him Helen of Troy to be his lover in his final moments. Just before his end, he reveals to his fellow scholars how he gained his powers. He is then carried off by a group of devils.

42. Christopher Marlowe Brief biographical article. http://www.theatrehistory.com/british/marlowe001.html

CHRISTOPHER MARLOWE This biography was originally published in Elizabethan and Stuart Plays . Ed. Charles Read Baskerville. New York: Henry Holt and Company, 1934. pp. 307-308. Purchase Plays by Christopher Marlowe Hero and Leander is the most important example and he became the outstanding dramatist of London, in association chiefly with the Admiral's Company of players. Many details of his life were a source of scandal to some of his contemporaries, and for us are still shrouded in mystery. In May, 1593, a manuscript was discovered in Kyd's Tamburlaine , unanimously accepted as Marlowe's first play, was attracting attention by 1588, when Greene in the preface to Perimedes the Blacksmith Jonson calls it, and made it a fit instrument for the intense and passionate characters created by him. While at times, especially in Tamburlaine , his style approaches bombast, his swelling periods and bold figures contributed greatly to the effectiveness of tragic style in his successors. Doctor Faustus has usually been assigned to the winter of 1588-89, but recent scholars like Tucker Brooke and Boas (in his edition of the play for

Welcome to PETER FAREY's Marlowe Page (Dedicated to the proposition that, had it not been for the 'sudden and fearful end of his life' on 30th May 1593, Christopher Marlowe would have equalled Shakespeare) CONTENTS: ABOUT MARLOWE AND ME A short explanation of who I am, and of how I came to develop this site. THE WORKS OF CHRISTOPHER MARLOWE Although the works of Marlowe can be found on the internet, it is not easy to obtain complete versions on a single file, and with modern spelling. I have now managed to complete modernized editions of all of his works in HTML, with the exception of one or two shorter items. Here are the links for the plays: Tamburlaine the Great, part 1 Tamburlaine the Great, part 2 Edward II The Jew of Malta ... The Massacre at Paris Doctor Faustus is quite a large file (over 300KB) as I have shown both the 'A' and 'B' texts next to each other, so that the differences between them are made clear. These are all intended just for reading, rather than for study, so - other than some translations from Latin - no notes are attached. The links for the poetry are: Hero and Leander Lucan's First Book Ovid's Elegies The Passionate Shepherd to his Love The complete works in the original spelling may be found at the Tufts University website.

45. Math And Culture Lesson April 14 Background information. http://www.dartmouth.edu/~matc/MathCulture/4-14.html

April 14, 1997 Christopher Marlowe's Doctor Faustus Background: Marlowe Christopher Marlowe, the first master of blank verse, was born in 1564, and lived for twenty nine intriguing years The son of a shoemaker, he attended Cambridge University on a scholarship from the Archbishop of Canterbury, where he earned a Bachelor's degree. The scholarship had been given with the understanding that Marlowe would become a minister, but Marlowe seems to have had other ideas. Cambridge awarded him a M.A., but only at the behest of the Queen's Privy Council, possibly as part of his compensation for espionage conducted on the continent. He then left Cambridge to write plays for the blossoming theaters of London. A member of the School of Night, along with Sir Walter Raleigh and the mathematician John Dee, Marlowe was also suspected of homosexuality and atheism, and was actually picked up and questioned about the latter just days before his death in a barroom brawlwhich itself has led to speculation about assassinationin 1593. A sampling of the words others claimed to be Marlowe's: Them that love not tobacco and boys are fools.

Christopher Marlowe D ramaturgo y poeta considerado como el primer gran autor de teatro inglés y el más importante del periodo isabelino a pesar de que sólo se dedicó al teatro por espacio de seis años. Sus primeras obras fueron básicamente comedias. Después cultivó el género de la tragedia de una manera novedosa al llevar a escenas personajes arquetipos de pasiones que influirían en el teatro posterior de William Shakespeare. Su obra maestra es La trágica historia del doctor Fausto . Nacido en Canterbury, el 6 de febrero de 1564, Marlowe, hijo de un zapatero, estudió en la Universidad de Cambridge. En Londres se relacionó con la Admiral's Men, una compañía de actores para la que escribió la mayoría de sus obras. Se dice que fue agente secreto del gobierno y que entre sus amigos figuraban destacadas personalidades de la época, como sir Walter Raleigh. Marlowe era ateo simpatizante de Maquiavelo y llevó una vida aventurera y disoluta. En 1593 fue acusado de herejía, pero antes de que fuera posible emprender acciones contra él, en mayo de ese mismo año murió apuñalado en una taberna de Deptford, por negarse, al parecer, a pagar la cuenta de la cena, aunque las circunstancias de su muerte siguen siendo un misterio. Al revelar las posibilidades de fuerza y diversidad expresiva que ofrecía el verso libre, Marlowe contribuyó a su establecimiento como forma predominante del teatro inglés. Escribió cuatro grandes obras de teatro, tres de las cuales se publicaron póstumamente: la epopeya heroica

Besides the poor record keeping of his era and the low esteem in which playwrights were held, the murkiness of his life is further compounded by slanders and disinformation advertised in the wake of his passing by Puritan detractors, rivals, and ideological opponents. However, because his name is usually considered second only to that of William Shakespeare in English drama, it is only natural to want to examine the circumstances that contributed to the formation of his classic literature. Christopher Marlowe was born in Canterbury on 6 February 1564, only a few months before William Shakespeare. He came from a similar tradesman’s background – where Shakespeare’s father was a wheelwright, Marlowe’s father was a tanner. There were also similar histories of the writers’ mothers marrying below theirstation. Shakespeare’s mother, Mary Arden, was a gentleman’s daughter; likewise, Katherine Arthur, probably a clergyman’s daughter, married John Marlowe despite his being of the working class (Bakeless 13).

Resurrecting Marley by Mather Walker November 2000 And those who have true skill in the works of the Lord Verulam, like great Masters in Painting, can tell by the Design, the Strength, the way of Colouring, whether he was the Author of this or the other Piece, though his Name be not to it. -Archbishop Tenison, Baconiana or Certaine Genuine Remains of Sir Francis Bacon W The other man brought light. He flamed across the Elizabethan stage like a comet in the night sky. Marley brought darkness. He appeared for only a moment, emerging from the shadow world of Elizabethan spies. Then he was gone again, stabbed to death by a bawdy serving man who was a rival in his "lewd" love. After his sordid death at the age of 29 on May 30, 1593, Marley, the double-dealer, the deceiver, the denizen of the lower depths of society was swallowed up again in the shadows from which he had appeared. The other man was an immortal. His light will burn as long as men can breathe, or eyes can see. As for Marley nothing of him remains except sometimes his ghost beckons from the past saying, "There is something here that you must see. Follow me if you would see things as they really were."

Born in Canterbury in the same year as Shakespeare, Marlowe was his most significant predecessor as an English playwright who was also a great poet. The son of a cobbler who earned a scholarship to Cambridge, where he received a B.A. in 1584 and an M.A. in 1587, Marlowe pursued a course of study that was designed to culminate in holy orders, yet the most profound result of his education may have been his love of classical literature, especially Ovid, whom he was to translate and whose comic ironies and worldly sophistication were to influence him greatly.
