His exact date of birth is not known, but he was baptised on 26 February 1564.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAnd with this, Christopher Marlowe, one of the supreme English literary talents, made his entrance into the world. \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eLittle is really known of his life except that from an early age, even at University, he was perhaps working as a spy.  His short life was filled with writing great works of exceptional quality. From the Jew of Malta to Doctor Faustus and Tamburlaine the Great Parts I \u0026amp; II his pen was the tool by which this great mind bequeathed great works to the world.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eAdd to this so many other stories of what Marlowe was or might have been: a spy, a brawler, a heretic, a \"magician\", \"duellist\", \"tobacco-user\", \"counterfeiter\", “atheist”, and \"rakehell\".\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBut certainly add to this; playwright and poet.
