Christopher Marlowe
Christopher Marlowe also known as Kit Marlowe, was an English playwright, poet, and translator of the Elizabethan era. Marlowe is among the most famous of the Elizabethan playwrights. Based upon the "many imitations" of his play Tamburlaine, modern scholars consider him to have been the foremost dramatist in London in the years just before his mysterious early death. A contemporary of William Shakespeare, Marlowe is best known for pioneering the use of blank verse in drama, which significantly impacted English theatre.
