Was Marlowe murdered?
In the official version of his death, Marlowe was murdered in 1593 after spending the day smoking and playing backgammon with Ingram Frizer, Nicholas Keres and Robert Poley in Deptford, London. Frizer drove the dagger into Marlowe’s head, above the right eye. Death was instantaneous.
Why was Marlowe’s death suspicious?
Frizer murdered him because he envied Marlowe’s close relationship with his master Thomas Walsingham and feared the effect that Marlowe’s behaviour might have on Walsingham’s reputation. Marlowe’s death was faked to save him from trial and execution for subversive atheism.
