This study provides an authoritative overview of all Marlowe's
work. It includes thorough investigations of his major plays,
Tamburlaine, Edward II, The Jew of Malta and Doctor Faustus as well
as a full discussion of The Massacre at Paris, Dido Queen of
Carthage and all his extant poetry. Analysis of Faustus takes full
account of both A and B text versions. Thoroughly researched and
yet presented in an accessible, engaging style, A Preface to
Marlowe reads Marlowe's life and times, as well as his work, in the
light of current critical theory. Consequently, it is a vital guide
for all students of early modern drama. As well as providing sharp
analysis of stage history, Dr Simkin reflects on the wider
significance of a stage-oriented approach. The result is a reading
of Marlowe that re-opens debates about his status as a radical
figure and as a subversive playwright and invites the reader to
experience the plays as immediate, exciting, 'live' documents.
