born 1575 died Feb. 28, 1626, Kinsale, County Cork, Ire. English dramatist. His early years were devoted to literature; after 1613 he served in the government. His reputation rests largely on The Atheist's Tragedie (1611), a verse drama rich in macabre imagery. He may be the author of The Revenger's Tragedie (1607), but most recent scholarship attributes it to Thomas Middleton; though earlier than The Atheist's Tragedie, it is more mature in its structure and sombre brilliance. Tourneur also wrote the poetical satire The Transformed Metamorphosis (1600)
