Christopher Marlowe

The Jew of Malta Christopher Marlowe Classic Illustrated edition

*LARGE PRINT EDITION* * The Jew of Malta is an original story of religious conflict, intrigue, and revenge, set against a backdrop of the struggle for supremacy between Spain and the Ottoman Empire in the Mediterranean that takes place on the island of Malta. It is considered to have been a major influence on William Shakespeare's The Merchant of Venice.* Just as accessible and enjoyable for today's readers as it would have been when first published, the play is one of the great works of English literature and continues to be widely read throughout the world.
