Catalogue synopsis

Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:

"Tamburlaine the Great — Part 2" by Christopher Marlowe is a play written in 1587 or 1588. Continuing the story of the Scythian shepherd turned emperor, this sequel follows Tamburlaine as he grooms his sons for conquest while waging relentless war across kingdoms. When his oldest son refuses to fight, family loyalty collides with imperial ambition. As enemies seek revenge and Tamburlaine commits increasingly savage acts, his insatiable hunger for power drives him toward a final, fateful reckoning that will test even his legendary strength.
