Each chapter focuses on a specific aspect of Marlowe's work and its cultural contexts: Marlowe's life and death; the Marlowe canon; the theatrical contexts and stage history of the plays; Marlowe's interest in old and new branches of knowledge; the ways in which he transgresses against establishednorms and values; and the major issues which have been raised in critical discussions of his plays. | Christopher Marlowe Renaissance Dramatist by Lisa Hopkins, Paperback | Indigo Chapters
