W 1979 Goethe, Franklin Library Edition

Notes

Faust by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a tragic play that tells the story of Dr. Faust, a scholar who makes a pact with the devil, Mephistopheles, in exchange for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. The play explores themes of ambition, desire, the search for meaning, and the consequences of human striving. Divided into two parts, it is considered one of the greatest works of German literature, blending philosophy, drama, and poetry in its exploration of human nature and morality.
