More About The Product

Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593) was born in Canterbury the year of Shakespeare's birth. He wrote seven plays--the dates of which are uncertain--before he was yet again in legal difficulties: he was arrested in 1593, accused of atheism. He was not imprisoned, and before his case could be decided he was dead, having been stabbed in a tavern while quarreling over the bill.
