Christopher Marlowe in fiction information


Anonymous 16th century portrait, suggested to be Christopher Marlowe

Christopher Marlowe (1564–1593),[1] English playwright and poet,[2] has appeared in works of fiction since the nineteenth century. He was a contemporary of William Shakespeare,[3] and has been suggested as an alternative author of Shakespeare's works, an idea not accepted in mainstream scholarship.[4] Marlowe, alleged to have been a government spy and frequently claimed to have been homosexual, was killed in 1593.[3]
