Marlowe's Republican Authorship: Lucan, Liberty, and the Sublime is the first attempt to situate Marlowe's well-known iconoclastic dissidence within the historical context of Elizabethan republican thought, revealing Marlowe to be the literary pioneer of a new form of republican art.
This book argues broadly that any historical narrative about republicanism needs to place Marlowe at the front of its genealogy, and that his interest in republican ideals is sustained from the beginning to the end of his meteoric career. More specifically, this study will nonetheless argue that it is difficult to discern a clear republican form of government in Marlowe''s works. What we can discern is ''republican representation'', the author''s representational foregrounding of his own republican frame of art. This study is the first to situate the complex Marlowe corpus within the context of the advent of English Republicanism.
