`splendid edition ... rich commentaries ... choice of texts, along with the old spelling and careful, minimally intrusive editorial alterations, make this first and foremost an edition for scholars. It is also, though, quite useful for all kinds of readers because of the substantial "Commentary" that Gill provides for each of the works ... Each text is preceded by both a "General Introduction" and a "Textual Introduction". These are of excellent quality and great value ... Roma Gill has given to the world of Marlowe scholarship a first-rate set of texts and commentaries which firmly establish Marlowe, like Ben Jonson, as a poet and playwright intimately identifiable with the classical tradition and one who must be reckoned with on those terms.'
