At his most heretical, Marlowe is also deeply traditional--precisely because the tradition he simultaneously fulfills and upends is fundamentally Marlovian (it seems relevant to note here that, as the book progresses, we learn that Christian writings repeatedly play with the Latin root of the word tradition, tradere, which means both "to hand over" and "to betray" [110-12]).
The term comes from the Latin verb tradere, meaning to transmit or to give over.
