Essays / Response to Doctor Faustus [6]

Hi again,

I've decided to change topics as these two were rather too difficult for me,
so i've decided to do "Is the epilogue's warning to the audience confirmed by the tone and events of the play as a whole?"

I think this topic is much more straight forward but i'm struggling to think of a few main points to focus on. Where do you think I should start?

Thanks alot for your help again,

Peter

PS: I promise i'll stick to this topic!!

Essays / Response to Doctor Faustus [6]

Hi i was wondering how to approach either of these two questions for Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe,

I'm not sure which one to choose either.

Audiences and writers willingly embrace the make-believe of stage drama, because it frees them to construct a version of reality. Discuss how Marlowe uses the beliefs and theatrical experiences of his audience to present a challenge to prevailing morality.

OR

How does Marlowe combine traditional theatrical forms with modern dramatic techniques to challenge his contemporary audiences?

What should i look at for either essays to answer the question properly??

Thanks alot
