CHRISTOPHER MARLOWE: EDWARD THE SECOND (WITH TEXT)

Christopher Marlowe Edward the Second : Shakti Batra Edward the Second has been hailed as the first history play in English literature and the credit for this goes to Christopher Marlowe. This is a masterly rendition of abdicating royalty while sticking to historical facts and adapting them to Marlowe’s craftsmanship. The present critical study of the play provides an introduction to English Drama before Marlowe and his achievements as a dramatist as well as the text of the play with complete paraphrase, glossary and explanatory notes, and critical problems with answers for the benefit of students in our universities. Shakti Batra has been Vice-Principal, Dyal Singh College (University of Delhi). He has also taught at the Kabul University and the International university of Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek as well as students from the Tibetan Public Service Commission, Dharamsala, and Kiyushu University, Japan.
