Each and every student of English literature knows about the literary contribution of University Wits . Among all playwrights of this group of University , Christopher Marlowe is said to be a genius who composed all his dramas in mighty blank verse . Marlowe was the first dramatist who felt that Blank Verse is only the suitable form that can get momentum and will be accelerated by the indigenous writers and readers of English literature . The blank verse of Marlowe is not ordinary , but rather it is energized and high sounding that creates terror , fear , moral boost et al . Now the question can be raised . Why did Marlowe select ' Mighty Blank Verse ' for his tragedies ? The answer is explicit . Since he chose protagonists like Dr Faustus , Tamburlaine , Jew of Malta , and Edward ll , blank verse proved panacea for his plays . His verse style is not only forceful but also elegant . Though Gorboduc is believed to be the first tragedy of English literature , yet the element of tragedy was chiselled by Christopher Marlowe when he jotted down Dr Faustus , and Tamburlaine the Great , Edward ll and The Jew of Malta in the last phase of the Renaissance in England . Shakespeare was much influenced with the theme of revenge , and pelf and power of Marlowe . Truly speaking , Shakespeare is highly indebted to Marlowe for the blank verse and theme of vendetta . Indeed , Marlowe is the father of English drama .
