Kit Marlowe singlehandedly set up like all the gay, devastating stories that have been written for centuries with this one little play

Hmm.... definitely will be thinking about this for a while. Did anyone have the "right" viewpoint? Was there anything that could have reconciled everyone, or is this an example of Rousseau's particular wills at play? If all the characters are driven by love, what does that say about love itself and our human views of it?
