pSeparated into two parts Christopher Marlowes iTamburlaine the Greati follows the conquests of an outlaw who slowly rises to power through extreme displays of aggression. When Mycetes the king of Persia complains to his brother Cosroe about a group of outlaws that were causing trouble Cosroe claimed that Mycetes was weak and that a king shouldnt have such a problem. In response Mycetes sends out a powerful soldier to kill the leader of the outlaws Tamburlaine. Though the soldiers army was twice the size of Tamburlaines the outlaw was hardly discouraged. Using his wit and charm Tamburlaine attempts to convince the soldier to convert to his side merging the two armies. As Tamburlaine grows stronger he gains new allies such as his clever wife Zenocrate. Though he seemed to be just a petty outlaw at first the leaders of prominent Eurasian countries become increasingly concerned as Tamburlaine slowly overcomes armies and nations with force manipulation and unlikely alliances. As his makeshift armies continue to challenge elite armed forces countless lives are at stake as Tamburlaines bloody ambition only grows. p pWhen first released iTamburlaine the Greati both fascinated and disgusted the 16th century audience.
