Early inTamburlaine Part 1, Marlowe’s protagonist promises that his army’s bullets, “[e]nrolde in flames and fiery smouldering mistes”, will occupy the heavens. Uniting the technological with the supernatural, Tamburlaine is characterized as a warrior who commands the “compasse of the killing bullet”, with the smoky emissions generated by his ordnance complementing his martial ambitions. As Tamburlaine and Bajazeth compete for discursive and material control of the fictional – and theatrical – air, deploying smoke, flying bullets, and airborne contagion, Marlowe’s drama introduces an association between pollution and achievement that Shakespeare would subsequently interrogate inHenry IVandHenry V. While Shakespearean characters such as Hotspur continue to celebrate the fumes of “smoky war” (1 Henry IV), Shakespeare also registers the performative risks of generating environmental pollution: an approach that culminates inHenry Vwhen Henry’s threats conflate bullets with rotting bodies and render the air itself a poisoned weapon that “choke[s]” the atmosphere. Analysing both parts ofTamburlaine,Henry VI Part One,1and2 Henry IV, andHenry V, this article explores the theatrical associations between staging battle and the weaponised use of airborne pollutants, reflecting on the implications for contemporary dramatic representations of the martial and aerial environment.
