This article presents a list of the historical events and publications of literature during 1593. ==Events== *Ongoing - The London theatres remain closed for almost the entire year, due to the outbreak of bubonic plague that began the previous year. In the summer, Edward Alleyn and other actors tour the towns and countryside beyond the city. Since plague tends to abate in winter, some performances take place then; Lord Strange's Men act a play called ''Titus'' — perhaps Shakespeare's ''Titus Andronicus'' — three times in January. *May 5 - "Dutch church libel": Bills posted in London threatening Protestant refugees from France and the Netherlands allude to Christopher Marlowe's plays. *May 12 - Arrest of English dramatist Thomas Kyd in connection with the "Dutch church libel". "Atheist" literature found in his home is claimed to be Marlowe's. *May 18 - A warrant for the arrest of Christopher Marlowe is issued. On May 20 he presents himself to the Privy Council. *May 29 - Execution of the Welsh-born Protestant John Penry for involvement with the Marprelate Controversy. *May 30 - Marlowe is stabbed to death by speculator Ingram Frizer in a dispute over the bill at a lodging house in Deptford kept by the widow Eleanor Bull. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「1593 in literature」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
