Additional Information
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.
This is a useful edition for those teaching or studying the plays of Marlowe. It includes the 1616 edition of Faustus, as used for the A-level, and a brief comparison to the 1604 version. The scripts are well laid out and edited, though the notes are a little sparse. Marlowe is a brilliant playwright and well worth reading, and this is a comprehensive introduction to his work.
