Author Guidelines

We welcome submissions on the plays and poems of Christopher Marlowe. We accept original research articles, theatre reviews and book reviews. There will be no discussion of the so-called authorship question and we will not print ad hominem attacks.

Articles should usually be around 7000 words long, but we are open to pieces of other lengths.  Articles will be subject to double-blind peer review before acceptance.

Please use the Chicago footnote style and include a bibliography.
