The Marlowe seminar will explore the work of (arguably) the second most significant playwright in
the language, and certainly one of the most important influences on the greatest playwright in
the language, Shakespeare. The advantage of Marlowe's tragic early death at the age of 29 means
that we will have time to explore all of his seven plays, as well as his most important poems,
including one of the most admired non-dramatic works of the English Renaissance, Hero and Leander.
Assignments will include a shorter paper, a longer paper and a seminar presentation.
