Abstract
|
:
|
Park Honan's exciting new biography highlights Christopher Marlowe's dangerous career as a part-time spy, as well as his evolving relations, especially with Shakespeare. We see how his creative imagination helped to save him even among thugs, and brought him a brief, dazzling success. His street fights, friendships, so-called homosexuality, talk, and personal habits are in close focus. The book includes an ongoing murder-mystery, and sheds new light on Marlowe's killer and the fight. at Deptford. - ;Christopher Marlowe: Poet & Spy is the most thorough and detailed life of Marlowe since John Ba.
