As Marlowe's plays are Older Than Steam and this one is based on historical events, all spoilers on this page are unmarked.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })The Massacre at Paris, possibly originally known as The Tragedy of the Guise, is a 16th century play by Christopher Marlowe, which only survives to modern times in an modified, patchwork form.The plot is a fictionalised version of the historical 'War of the Three Henrys', with France's Catholic queen mother and the villainous Duke of Guise conspiring to assassinate the Protestant leaders of Navarre and exterminate all those they view as heretics.When the king of Navarre manages to escape and retaliate, France's newly crowned king considers changing sides and allying with Navarre against Guise. But there's much blood on his hands, and it may not be washed away quite so easily.The play is wholeheartedly supportive of Navarre and its Protestant king, with the Catholics depicted as murderous fanatics.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_2'); }) | |

Dead Guy on Display: Gonzago throws the Admiral's body down from his bedroom window into the street below, partly so that Guise can be confident they murdered the right man. Once Guise has checked it the Duke of Anjou decides to cut the head and hands from the corpse and send them to the pope. His body is later hanged from a tree - until Guise is offended by the smell and has it thrown into a ditch. | |
