Marlowe did not die on May 30th 1593!
The Non-acceptance of the "Marlowe-Shakespeare Conspiracy" led to a fatal interpretation failure of literary sources in the aftermath of "William of Stratford".- Wits Recreations 1640 | 
Epitaph 55 in "Witts Recreations"
(1640 Anonymous Author) |
1640, about 15 years after the appearance of the First Folio an anonymous author in "Witts Recreations" wrote an Epitaph 55 about an "Inne-keeper." [s. Faksimiles, Note the hyphenation ! SOED innkeeper, 1548: one who keeps an inn or puplic house; a taverner]
Therein the author allegorically explains the "strange" situation of his death : It was not him who really died, [it is not I that dye], he but left the inne [at Deptford 1593, alive], where the plot [conspiracy] with his ostensible death occured [where harbour'd was with me all filthy kind of sin!"). In truth he had not died [it is not I that dye], but he "newly" had to restart, . ("I doe but now begin"). For us there would be no reason to "weep" or "lament" ("Why weepe you then my friends"): He didn't loose [his life] but he did win it..-
In 1640 the by far most plausible interpretation of this "bizarre" epitaph 55 is that the author of "Wits Recreations", the "true Shakespeare " (alias Marlowe, read Summary!) was still alive and revealed his fate in a roundabout way. It clearly corresponds to the alleged Death of Marlowe 1593 May 30th in a Taverne because of a brawl about a reckoning.(in Deptford)-
