Author Description

Louis Ule published 70 copies of this biography of Christopher Marlowe in 1995. The 593-page book is filled with detailed information about Marlowe's life, the writings of his friend Thomas Nashe and how they further illuminate both Marlowe and his father, John, and the connections between Marlowe and other men living in 16th century England. Those who believe that Marlowe was Shakespeare will not agree with all of Ule's conjectures, such as his identification of the Shake-scene alluded to in Greene's "Groatsworth of Wit".
