This website offers a lot of good quality links on biographies and works of Marlowe.

If you are looking for an electronic version of one of Marlowe’s works, this is a good place to find it. All his plays and poetry are available. A disadvantage: you can choose between a lot of (slightly) different versions of Marlowe’s texts. Maybe a bit hard to choose the right one for you… This collection of Marlowe’s work is part of the much larger Perseus project. This project also includes other English Renaissance texts and a large collection of ancient Greek and Latin texts (with their English translations).

A website that is made to promote an interesting theory: namely that Marlowe did not die in 1593, but continued to live a secret life and had a very large influence on the works of Shakespeare. Nice theory, but there are few scholars that agree with the author of this website….

Sparknotes is a study guide made for (American) high-school students by students from Harvard University. The website contains a lot of English literature from every period. Each work is discussed in detail, and in many case, there is an online text available. The information itself is very good, but the advertisements make it a bit annoying.
