I remember when I first had Othello and Marlowe's Doctor Faustus in the same semester. While I liked Othello a lot, I felt that Faustus was a much superior piece of literature, both in the lyrical beauty of its prose and the actual plot. I was also fortunate enough to have a professor who was a huge Marlowe fan. So while most professors obsess too much over Shakespeare, my professor spent a good couple of months on Faustus. Highlight of my academic life.
