Produktbeschreibung

Marlow's Jew of Malta - a very popular play in its day, as entries in Henslowe's Diary testify - ranks as one of the most imaginative creations of Elizabethan drama, having no known antecedents for the main events of the plot, and no known counterpart for its protagonist. Here it is presented in a text derived from the 1633 Quarto, with an apparatus of emendations and a full commentary on sources, allusions, and the meaning of difficult passages.

---

This is the latest volume in the acclaimed Oxford English Texts edition of Marlowe--the first complete edition of the works that provides both an original spelling text and detailed commentary. Roma Gill here presents an authoritative text of this great play derived from the 1633 Quarto.
