Description A playwright and poet from England, Christopher Marlowe wrote "The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus" between 1564 and 1593. The drama, which originally appeared on stage in the late 16th century, is about a great scholar called Faustus who strikes a bargain with the devil in return for limitless wisdom and power. As he grows more and more corrupt and immoral, Faustus' ambition and quest for knowledge lead him down a road of vice and ruin. Faustus continues to pursue knowledge despite the cautions of his confidant and buddy Mephistopheles, and finally pays a terrible price for his desire. As one of Marlowe's most well-known works and a standard illustration of Elizabethan tragedy, "The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus" is frequently studied.
Author Biography
English playwright, poet, and translator Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593) lived during the Elizabethan period. He was educated at the King's School and afterwards Cambridge University after being born in Canterbury, England. His plays, such as "Tamburlaine the Great," "Doctor Faustus," "The Jew of Malta," and "Edward II," were well-known and ground-breaking at the time they were written. Marlowe's writings often dealt with themes of power, politics, and religion. His literary style was distinguished by his use of blank verse. Marlowe mysteriously passed away at the age of 29 during a scuffle at a London pub in Deptford. Despite having a brief life and career, he made a big contribution to the growth of drama and English literature.
