As the archetypal angry young man on the Elizabethan stage, so the story goes, he died tragically at a young age from hubris, ambivalent sexuality, or other self-inflicted wounds. His budding genius was eclipsed by that of his exact contemporary, William Shakespeare, whom Ben Jonson extolled as as “Soul of the Age,” the “Sweet Swan of Avon,” and “the Starre of Poets,” and whom many consider to have been the most glorious writer of all time.1 Another main character in our drama will be Queen Elizabeth, who pre- sided over this golden age of literature, culture, and exploration, and is one of the most revered monarchs—and best known women—in history. During her long forty-five-year reign, England adroitly maintained its independ- ence, narrowly avoided civil war between Protestants and Catholics, and evolved from a small, insular island nation into a mighty power, competing for supremacy with Spain, the richest empire in the world. Then there is John Whitgift, the third leading actor in our drama, who almost no one today has heard of. But at the time, he was the most loathed and feared man in England. For the first several generations of English set- tlers in America, he was remembered as a tyrant of biblical proportions, whose wave of religious persecution set in motion the Pilgrim and Puritan exodus. The position that he held, archbishop of Canterbury, continues 25 26 Hamlet today, though its occupant only attracts public attention when he upholds some obscure doctrinal point affecting the worldwide Anglican Church. Drawn together in a stormy triangle of competing allegiances and epic visions, the lives and fortunes of these three Renaissance spirits are indis- pensable to understanding Hamlet, the world’s most problematic play. In this titanic struggle, the stakes extended far beyond the courts at Whitehall and Elsinore. They involved nothing less than the soul of England and the modern world. Also central to this story are William Cecil, or Lord Burghley, the lord treasurer of England and the queen’s oldest and ablest adviser, and his son, Robert Cecil, who served on the Privy Council—the queen’s cabinet—for nearly a decade, succeeded his father, and orchestrated the peaceful accession of James VI of Scotland as England’s new king when Elizabeth passed away. Some of the paths and byways that we follow in this section, especially those involving arcane theological doctrines, royal pronouncements, and dialectical word play, may seem like digressions, leading away from the goal. But like pursuing a long, winding thread, they ultimately lead out of the dark labyrinth surrounding the Shakespeare authorship controversy into the light of understanding. 1 When That Fell Arrest But be contented when that fell arrest Without all bail shall carry me away, —Sonnet 74 Good Service he year 1593 began auspiciously, with Marlowe starting work on Hero and Leander. The plague had broken out the previous year and seriously disrupted the London stage. The author of Tamburlaine, Dr. Faustus, The Jew of Malta, and other immensely popular plays turned his hand to narrative poetry while waiting for theatrical life to resume. There was a brief respite from the epidemic at the end of January, and Marlowe’s The Massacre at Paris debuted at the Rose, but then the plague returned and the theaters again closed. The hia- Marlowe’s Ghost 27 tus brought economic hardship to those who earned their living from the stage, and during the last year, Marlowe’s fortunes had ebbed. In Flushing, an English outpost on the Dutch seacoast, he was charged with treason, apostasy (going over to the Catholic cause), and counterfeiting by Richard Baines, a former priest and informer for the Crown. Sent back to England in January 1592 by Sir Robert Sidney, the governor of Flushing, Marlowe was interrogated by William Cecil, Lord Burghley—the lord treasurer, Queen Elizabeth’s principal advisor of state, and for all practical purposes England’s prime minister—and released despite the capital charges leveled against him. Marlowe’s charmed existence has led most historians to conclude that he was a courier, spy, or double agent and that his service to Her Majesty’s gov- ernment went back to his university days at Cambridge.2 The religious wars of sixteenth-century Europe dominated the Elizabethan Age, and Protestant England maintained constant vigilance against Catholic plots, domestic and foreign. In 1587, Mary Queen of Scots was beheaded for conspiring against Elizabeth, her cousin, and the following year, the great Spanish Armada, a naval crusade bent on returning England to the Catholic fold, was turned back. At Cambridge, where he matriculated in 1581 at age seventeen and received his B.A. in 1584, Marlowe may have been recruited by Burghley, who, among his many official duties, was chancellor of the university. Absences of weeks at a time interrupted Marlowe’s studies, and rumors cir- culated that he was visiting Rheims, a town in France east of Paris near the site of an English college that trained and infiltrated Catholic priests into England. As a master’s candidate at Corpus Christi College, Marlowe was expected to take holy orders and become a Protestant divine. In 1531 Henry VIII severed relations with the Catholic Church in Rome, which opposed his divorce. A Protestant Order of Common Service and Prayer was introduced during the short reign of his son Edward VI, but the island realm reverted to Catholicism under his daughter Queen Mary in the early 1550s. Known as “Bloody” Mary, she instituted a reign of terror in which hundreds of Protestants were burned at the stake and nearly a thousand fled to exile on the Continent. The Religious Settlement intro- duced by Elizabeth, her step-sister and successor, in 1559 recognized the supremacy of the Church of England and granted the Crown “Jurisdiction over the State Ecclesiastical and Spirituall,” including the “reformation, order, and correction” of all “errors, heresies, schisms, abuses, offences, contempts, and enormities.” The Act of Uniformity required all subjects to accept the Book of Common Prayer as the foundation of faith and worship and prohibited any “derogation, depraving, or despising” of its contents “in 28 Hamlet any interludes, plays, songs, rhymes, or by other open words.”3 While Oxford University had been purged of Catholics by the early 1580s, Cambridge remained a thicket of discontent. Some professors and seminar- ians privately resisted the Church of England’s new dispensation and sym- pathized with festive Catholic rituals and traditional doctrines that had been observed for centuries. Whatever his true sympathies, Marlowe’s absences and rumors caused university officials to withhold his master’s diploma. In June 1587, the Queen and Privy Council intervened on his behalf: Whereas it was reported that Christopher Morley [a variant on his name] was determined to haue gone beyond the seas to Reames & there to remain, Their Lordships thought good to certifie that he had no such intent, but that in all his accions he had behaued him selfe orderlie and discreetelie wherebie he had done her Majestie good service, and deserued to be rewarded for his faithfull dealinge: Their Lordships request was that the rumor thereof should be allaied by all pos- sible meanes, and that he should be furthered in the degree he was to take this next Commencement: Because it was not Her Majesies pleasure that anie one emploied, as he had been in matters touching the benefitt of his country should be defamed by those that are ignorant in th’affaires he went about.4 Since both Burghley and Francis Walsingham, the secretary of state and chief spymaster, were on the Privy Council at the time, historians conjecture that Marlowe infiltrated Jesuit cells on campus, posed as a Catholic convert on sojourns across the English Channel, or served as a courier to France or Belgium in order to garner intelligence on papal intrigues.

  • John Penry: the Martyred Prophet
    John Penry: The Martyred Prophet On the back road from Llangammarch Wells to Tirabad, about two miles south of the former an ancient white longhouse can be found. It's hidden off the road up a farm track, and tucked in below the steep northern scarp slope of Mynydd Epynt. From the track which leads up to it are broad views over the Dulais valley and across the small village of Cefn-gorwydd towards Llanwrtyd Wells and the Cambrian Mountains. It is a very quiet spot where literally all that can be heard is birdsong and the baaa-ing of sheep. This is celebrated Cefn-brith, the old farmhouse reputed to be the birthplace of one of Wales's greatest sons, John Penry. The first time I visited the farmhouse, it was during a wet spring a few years ago, and the farmyard was awash with mud and manure. It was difficult in town shoes to pick a way across the slurry to take some pictures, at the invitation of the old farmer who lived there. More recently I revisited the place and the yard was bone meal dry. It was strangely deserted, and seemingly empty, even timeless. I felt I had suddenly stepped back several hundred years, and was seeing the place as it would have been in the time it was occupied by the Penry family, although then the long, low farmhouse would have been thatched, rather than roofed with slate from North Wales. Only the old letter box on the gatepost, fashioned out of a Second World War ammunition box, suggested anything remotely like modernity - that and the bronze plaque on the porch which indicated it was a special birthplace.

  • Christopher Marlowe and the Golden Age of England
    The Marlowe Society Christopher Marlowe and the Research Journal - Volume 05 - 2008 Golden Age of England Online Research Journal Article Michael J. Kelly Christopher Marlowe and the Golden Age of England Poet, spy and playwright, Christopher Marlowe was the embodiment of the Elizabethan Golden Age. Marlowe’s work was the product of his ‘Erasmian,’ or Christian humanist, education, the state of affairs in England and his own ability and readiness to satirize the world around him. Marlowe and his fellow contemporaries were a testament to the development of English drama, its pinnacle at the end of the English Renaissance and its eventual decline and suppression at the outbreak of the English Civil War. Their work is historically important because it illustrates, in addition to the development of English theatre, the dramatic political and social events of the time through the public medium of the playhouse. Specifically, the development of the theatre helps explain key features of the English Renaissance such as the creation of English self-identity, adoption of humanistic ideal, the advancement of English over Latin, the role of religion, the intellectual development of a people and parliament and their gradual alienation from the monarchy, the ultimate assertion of parliamentary power, and Civil War. Furthermore, the development of commercial playwriting, acting, stage management and private investment in theatres, an aspect of life today taken for granted, began during this Golden Age in English drama. The history of English playwriting and performance stretches back to at least the ninth century trope ‘Alle Luia’ sung at Easter masses. However, post-classical Christian ritual performance itself probably developed from the ritualistic repetitions of the Empirical Roman Senate.1 This tradition, established in the Church at some point during the early formation of Roman successor states, likely spread to England from Spain, via Ireland, through missionaries.

  • DISSERTATION-Submission Reformatted
    The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 By Robert Lee Harkins A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate Division of the University of California, Berkeley Committee in charge: Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair Professor Jonathan Sheehan Professor David Bates Fall 2013 © Robert Lee Harkins 2013 All Rights Reserved 1 Abstract The Dilemma of Obedience: Persecution, Dissimulation, and Memory in Early Modern England, 1553-1603 by Robert Lee Harkins Doctor of Philosophy in History University of California, Berkeley Professor Ethan Shagan, Chair This study examines the problem of religious and political obedience in early modern England. Drawing upon extensive manuscript research, it focuses on the reign of Mary I (1553-1558), when the official return to Roman Catholicism was accompanied by the prosecution of Protestants for heresy, and the reign of Elizabeth I (1558-1603), when the state religion again shifted to Protestantism. I argue that the cognitive dissonance created by these seesaw changes of official doctrine necessitated a society in which religious mutability became standard operating procedure. For most early modern men and women it was impossible to navigate between the competing and contradictory dictates of Tudor religion and politics without conforming, dissimulating, or changing important points of conscience and belief. Although early modern theologians and polemicists widely declared religious conformists to be shameless apostates, when we examine specific cases in context it becomes apparent that most individuals found ways to positively rationalize and justify their respective actions. This fraught history continued to have long-term effects on England’s religious, political, and intellectual culture.

  • 74;Iff"TN':T Death"
    74;Iff"TN':T Death" ommenting on J. Leslie Hotson's 1925 discovery of the coroner's inquest into Marlowe's deathl, Professor G. \-,L. Kittredge wrote: "The mystery of Marlowe's death, heretofore involved in a cloud of contradictory gossip and irres_ponsible guess-work, is now cleared up for good and all on the authority of public records of complete authenticity and gratifying fullness." But Hotson's discovery has served only to increase the number of explanations for Marlowe's demise, and even gave rise to claims that Marlowe was not killed at all. As noted in the previous chapter Christopher Marlowe, in answe_r to the May 18 summons by the Queen's Privy Councif made his appearance at the Star Chamber in Westminster two days later, Marlowe's name then disappears from the records until Wednesday, May 30 wher; according to a coroner's re- port, he was killed by one Ingram Ffizei at Deptford, near - Londorg in the home of Eleanor Bull, a widow. One would think that the Reverend Richard Harvey, the rector at Chislehurst, Ken! knew of Marlowe's arrest at the 226 Christopher Marlowe (156+-'1 607 ) 3 227 home of Thomas Walsingham in Scadbury, within his parish, and passed this juiry bit of gossip to his brother Gabriel, but neither Doctor Gabriel Harvey, nor any other of Marlowe's friends or enemies, discovered this fact. And as to Marlowe's manner of death, though the coroner's report lays it to a dag- ger wound, Gabriel Harvey had no doubt that Marlowe died of the plague.

Based on the play Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe, Hannah asks what happens when a young girl is offered unlimited power and what guides the decisions she makes when once she understands the implications of the power she holds. Marlowe’s classic story of a man who sells his soul to the devil for supernatural powers translates into a play for a contemporary audience that examines the choices and dilemmas facing us in the 21st Century; What are the things that tempt us, What are the things that hold us back? How could extraordinary power transform us? Writer Chris Thorpe talks about the questions at the heart of his play: What makes us good? Why don’t we go out and just do whatever we want? Because we don’t do that a lot of the time, the vast majority of us don’t do that.

  • In Defence of Kyd: Evaluating the Claim for Shakespeare's Part
    1 In Defence of Kyd: Evaluating the Claim for Shakespeare’s Part Authorship of Arden of Faversham DARREN FREEBURY-JONES Abstract: MacDonald P. Jackson first argued for Shakespeare’s part authorship of Arden of Faversham in his university dissertation in 1963. He has devoted several articles to developing this argument, summarized in his monograph Determining the Shakespeare Canon (2014). Jackson’s part ascription has led to the inclusion of the domestic tragedy in The New Oxford Shakespeare. However, Jackson and his New Oxford Shakespeare colleagues have either dismissed or neglected the evidence for Thomas Kyd’s sole authorship presented by other scholars. This essay focuses primarily on Jackson’s monograph and argues that the evidence for adding the play to Kyd’s canon, encompassing phraseology, linguistic idiosyncrasies, and verse characteristics, seems solid. Contributor Biography: Darren Freebury-Jones is Lecturer in Shakespeare Studies (International – USA) at The Shakespeare Birthplace Trust in Stratford-upon-Avon. His 2016 doctoral thesis examined Thomas Kyd’s influence on Shakespeare’s early plays and he is one of the editors for the first edition of Kyd’s collected works since 1901. He has also investigated the boundaries of John Marston’s dramatic corpus as part of the Oxford Marston project. His recent and forthcoming work on the plays of authors such as Shakespeare, Kyd, Lyly, Marlowe, Peele, Nashe, Marston, Dekker, Fletcher, and others can be found in a range of peer-reviewed journals. The Authorship of Arden of Faversham He was right after all, and the scholars who for a generation now have ignored or sneered at his evidence, sometimes—when they have condescended to mention it—printing the word evidence itself between inverted commas, have not turned out to be our most reliable guides.

  • Kyd and Shakespeare: Authorship, Influence, and Collaboration
    Kyd and Shakespeare: Authorship, Influence, and Collaboration Darren Anthony Freebury-Jones A Thesis Submitted for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Cardiff University 2016 Abstract The aim of this thesis is to establish the canon of Thomas Kyd’s plays and to explore Shakespeare’s relationship with that oeuvre. Chapter One begins by examining Shakespeare’s verbal indebtedness to plays that have been attributed to Kyd for over two centuries, including The Spanish Tragedy (1587), Soliman and Perseda (1588), and The True Chronicle History of King Leir (1589). The first chapter argues that Shakespeare’s extensive knowledge of Kyd’s plays contributed towards the development of his dramatic language. The second chapter provides an overview of some of the complex methods for identifying authors utilized throughout the thesis. Chapter Three then seeks to establish a fuller account of Kyd’s dramatic canon through a variety of authorship tests, arguing that in addition to the three plays above Arden of Faversham (1590), Fair Em (1590), and Cornelia (1594) should be attributed to Kyd as sole authored texts. The fourth chapter examines the internal evidence for Kyd’s hand in Shakespeare’s Henry VI Part One (1592). The chapter contends that Shakespeare’s chronicle history play was originally written by Kyd and Thomas Nashe for the Lord Strange’s Men, and that Shakespeare subsequently added three scenes for the Lord Chamberlain’s Men. The fifth chapter argues that Shakespeare and Kyd collaborated on The Reign of King Edward III (1593) and that Kyd should thus be recognized as one of Shakespeare’s earliest co-authors.
