Excerpt from The Marlowe Concordance Although this concordance is primarily a complete guide to Dyce's edition of Marlowe's works, I have included in it, for various reasons, a like record of the words used in all the early versions of the Henry VI. Plays, as well as of those which occur in the anonymous dramas of Edward and Selimas. Extracts from pieces of doubtful origin, and pieces which Dyce did not accept or believe to be wholly by Marlowe, are distinguished throughout by an asterisk placed at the beginnings of the quotations.

The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, commonly referred to simply as Doctor Faustus, is an Elizabethan tragedy by Christopher Marlowe, based on German stories about the title character Faust, that was first performed sometime between 1588 and Marlowe's death in 1593. Two different versions of the play were published in the Jacobean era, several years later.The powerful effect of early productions of the play is indicated by the legends that quickly accrued around them-that actual devils once appeared on the stage during a performance, "to the great amazement of both the actors and spectators", a sight that was said to have driven some spectators mad.

More than fifty specialists have contributed to this new edition of volume 1 of The Cambridge Bibliography of English Literature. The design of the original work has established itself so firmly as a workable solution to the immense problems of analysis, articulation and coordination that it has been retained in all its essentials for the new edition. The task of the new contributors has been to revise and integrate the lists of 1940 and 1957, to add materials of the following decade, to correct and refine the bibliographical details already available, and to re-shape the whole according to a new series of conventions devised to give greater clarity and consistency to the entries.
