Faust Part One ~ Johann Wolfgang von Goethe

Medium soft cover
Very good condition

Faust: Part One by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a classic German tragedy that follows the story of Heinrich Faust, a scholar who, dissatisfied with his life and knowledge, makes a pact with the devil, Mephistopheles. In exchange for unlimited worldly pleasures and knowledge, Faust agrees to surrender his soul if he ever finds true satisfaction.

The play explores themes of ambition, temptation, and redemption. Faust's journey leads him to a tragic romance with Gretchen, an innocent young woman whose life is destroyed by his reckless pursuit of desire. As Faust indulges in his newfound power, Gretchen suffers devastating consequences, including the loss of her family and her descent into despair.

The story is structured as a series of dramatic scenes rather than traditional acts, beginning with a prologue in Heaven where Mephistopheles wagers with God that he can lead Faust astray. The narrative then follows Faust's inner turmoil, his encounter with Mephistopheles, and his tragic entanglement with Gretchen.
