Christopher Marlowe, also known as Kit Marlowe (26 February 1564 - 30 May 1593), was an English playwright, poet and translator of the Elizabethan era. Modern scholars count Marlowe among the most famous of the Elizabethan playwrights; based upon the "many imitations" of his play Tamburlaine, they consider him to have been the foremost dramatist in London in the years just before his mysterious early death. Some scholars also believe that he greatly influenced William Shakespeare, who was baptised in the same year as Marlowe and later succeeded him as the pre-eminent Elizabethan playwright. Marlowe was the first to achieve critical notoriety for his use of blank verse, which became the standard for the era.

Doctor Faustus or, The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustusis an Elizabethan tragedy by Christopher Marlowe, based on German stories about the title character Faust. It was written sometime between 1589 and 1592, and may have been performed between 1592 and Marlowe''s death in 1593. Two different versions of the play were published in the Jacobean era, several years later. The 1604 quarto, printed by Valentine Simmes for Thomas Law; this is usually called the A text. The title page attributes the play to "Ch. Marl.". A second edition (A2) of first version was printed by George Eld for John Wright in 1609. It is merely a direct reprint of the 1604 text. The text is short for an English Renaissance play, only 1485 lines long. The 1616 quarto, published by John Wright, the enlarged and altered text; usually called the B text. This second text was reprinted in 1619, 1620, 1624, 1631, and as late as 1663. Additions and alterations were made by the minor playwright and actor Samuel Rowley and by William Borne (or Birde), and possibly by Marlowe himself. The 1604 version was once believed to be closer to the play as originally performed in Marlowe''s lifetime, simply because it was older. The 1616 version omits 36 lines but adds 676 new lines, making it roughly one third longer than the 1604 version. Among the lines shared by both versions, there are some small but significant changes in wording; for example, "Never too late, if Faustus can repent" in the 1604 text becomes "Never too late, if Faustus will repent" in the 1616 text, a change that offers a very different possibility for Faustus''s hope and repentance.

This reader is accompanied with a CD that contains the full audio of the text in MP3 format. Doctor Faustus is a clever man who is greedy for knowledge and power. After he signs an agreement with the Devil, in his own blood, his new skills are admired around the world. But there are two sides to an agreement with the Devil. There is a price to pay.

Die tragische Historie vom Doktor Faustus ist ein Drama des englischen Renaissance-Schriftstellers Christopher Marlowe. Das Stück entstand in Anlehnung an die ins Englische übersetzte Historia von D. Johann Fausten, die später unter anderen auch Goethe inspirierte. Die Figur des Dr. Faustus stellt den macht- und wissensgierigen Menschen dar, der keine Grenzen kennt und sich sogar mit dem Teufel verbündet, um seine hoch fliegenden Wünsche zu befriedigen, der die menschlichen Grenzen zu überschreiten und die tief sitzenden Begierden und Sehnsüchte zu verwirklichen sucht. Das Stück kennzeichnet die Sprengung des engen gesellschaftlichen und geistigen Korsetts der Zeit und die Suche nach dem Absoluten, das bei Goethe später weiter differenziert wird. Marlowes Geschichte vom besessenen Faustus ist gleichermaßen ein Volksstück mit reichlich plastischer Moral als auch ein Drama mit erheblichem philosophischen Tiefgang. Die Tragödie Edward II reflektiert ein Drama, in dem nicht mehr das Panorama der historischen Hintergründe vorrangig ist, sondern der Charakter des Herrschers selbst. Ihn herauszuarbeiten sind alle Szenen arrangiert. Zugleich wird ein Frauencharakter, Königin Isabella, die Ehefrau Edwards, in seiner Wandlung zum Bösen begründet. Marlowe zeigt einen Staat, der auf seinen Untergang zutreibt, in dem Macht und Recht nur leere Floskeln sind und der in seiner Willkür grausam und absurd erscheint. Christopher Marlowe (1564-1593), Spitzname "Kit", war ein englischer Spion, Dichter, Dramatiker und Übersetzer des elisabethanischen Zeitalters. Manche Literaturwisssenschaftler nennen Marlowe ein "Shakespeare ebenbürtiges Genie" und "den Vater der "englischen Tragödie"
