Christopher Marlowe was one of the most famous playwrights in all of literature.  Marlowe's tragic plays, noted for their blank verse and unique protagonists, were a great influence on the legendary William Shakespeare. Some of Marlowe's classics include Doctor Faustus, Edward II, and Tamburlaine the Great.

Tamburlaine the Great is a play that is loosely based on the life of a 14th-century Asian emperor named Timur. This edition includes a table of contents.
