Supported by textual notes and featuring modern punctuation and spelling, they include: - Dido, Queen of Carthage - Tamburlaine the Great, Part One - Tamburlaine the Great, Part Two - The Jew of Malta - Doctor Faustus - Edward the Second - The Massacre at Paris With a critical introduction, a chronology of Marlowe’s life, extensive commentary, and a glossary, this will remain the authoritative anthology of Marlowe’s plays for years to come.
