“Who ever lov’d, that lov’d not at first sight?” The wonder-decade of the English drama was suddenly interrupted in 1592, when serious plague broke out in London, forcing the closure of the theatres.

Marlowe’s poem became more notorious than either of Shakespeare’s, due not only to its homophile provocations but also to the scandal attaching to every aspect of Marlowe’s brief life, violently ...

It is ...

Step into the world of Grigori Aleksandrovich Pechorin, one of the most compelling characters in Russian literature, often dubbed the ultimate superfluous man. This aristocratic rake revels in the art of manipulation, from callously abducting a Chechen teenager to serve as his bride, to risking the life of a relentless gambler in a philosophical game of Russian roulette.
