| The legend of Faust grew up in the sixteenth century, a time of transition between medieval and modern culture in Germany. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) adopted the story of the wandering conjuror who accepts Mephistopheles’s offer of a pact, selling his soul for the devil’s greater knowledge; over a period of 60 years he produced one of the greatest dramatic and poetic masterpieces of European literature. David Luke’s recent translation, specially commissioned for The World’s Classics series, has all the virtues of previous classic translations of Faust, and none of their shortcomings. Cast in rhymed verse, following the original, it preserves the essence of Goethe’s meaning without sacrifice to archaism or over-modern idiom. It is as near an `equivalent’ rendering of the German as has been achieved. Faust – Part One de Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe descarcă cartea.

Faust: Part Two, which focuses on the larger-scale, philosophical impact of evil, was published posthumously in 1832, just after Goethe’s death. I see you, and my pain diminishes, I grasp you, and my struggles grow less, My spirit’s flood tide ebbs, more and more, I seem to be where ocean waters meet, A glassy flood gleams around my feet, 700. New day invites me to a newer shore. A fiery chariot sweeps nearer. Faust: Part One (Oxford World’s Classic) Goethe’s „Faust” is arguably the most important milestone in Romantic literature. Taking the famous medieval legend of Dr. Faustus and his pact with the devil, Goethe adapted the tale of old, and transformed it into a great love story, and a probing poetical tract on the nature of good and evil, salvation and damnation, failing and striving, the innate Part One is concerned mainly with highly personal experience, while Part Two treats society as a whole, and Faust develops from a single individual into a symbolic figure who represents the striving spirit of man in the modern world. | ||
