Requirements: .ePUB reader, 6 MB
Overview: Christopher Marlowe: Poet & Spy is the most thorough and detailed life of Marlowe since John Bakeless’s in 1942. It has new material on Marlowe in relation to Canterbury, also on his home life, schooling, and six and a half years at Corpus Christi College, Cambridge, and includes fresh data on his reading, teachers, and early achievements, including a new letter with a new date for the famous ‘putative portrait’ of Marlowe at Cambridge.The biography uses for the first time the Latin writings of his friend Thomas Watson to illuminate Marlowe’s life in London and his career as a spy (that is, as a courier and agent for the Elizabethan Privy Council). There are new accounts of him on the continent, particularly at Flushing or Vlissingen, where he was arrested. The book also more fully explains Marlowe’s relations with his chief patron, Thomas Walsingham, than ever before.
