Summary:	"Spy, troublemaker, homosexual, atheist, University wit? Not in this study. Marlowe and the popular tradition turns aside from these popular stereotypes to consider Marlowe as a popular dramatist who inherited an audience with certain expectations and shared experiences. This book explores Marlowe's engagement with the traditions of the popular stage in the 1580s and early 1590s. It offers a new approach to his major plays on terms of staging and audience response, as well as providing a new account of the English drama in these important but largely neglected years." "Marlowe and the popular tradition discusses Marlowe's plays in relation to some thirty other playtexts, earlier and contemporary, including Shakespeare's early plays. Each chapter treats an aspect - cultural, theatrical, spatial - of how the popular drama told stories and constructed theatrical experience. Marlowe emerges not so much as a precursor of Shakespeare but as an innovator and catalyst of change, the playwright who exploited and transformed the traditional materials of popular drama." "Undergraduate students will find this an approachable introduction to Marlowe's stagecraft. Postgraduates will find it both an authoritative reference work on the playwright and his contemporaries, and an inspiration for new studies in the area."--Jacket.  Read more...
