Winner of the Roma Gill Prize 2015, Marlowe's Literary Scepticism
re-evaluates the representation of religion in Christopher
Marlowe's plays and poems, demonstrating the extent to which his
literary engagement with questions of belief was shaped by the
virulent polemical debates that raged in post-Reformation Europe.
Offering new readings of under-studied works such as the poetic
translations and a fresh perspective on well-known plays such as
Doctor Faustus, this book focuses on Marlowe's depiction of the
religious frauds denounced by his contemporaries. It identifies
Marlowe as one of the earliest writers to acknowledge the practical
value of religious hypocrisy, and a pivotal figure in the history
of scepticism.
