Interpretation To Books Faust, First Part (Goethe's Faust #1)
Wielki uczony - wciąż spragniony wiedzy o sensie istnienia - zawiera pakt z diabłem. Chce absolutnego poznania i doskonałego szczęścia - jeśli zazna chwili, o której powie „trwaj, jesteś piękna!” szatan będzie mógł wziąć jego duszę do piekła. Mefistofeles ochoczo zgadza się na to - wszak sprawdzić wiarę Fausta pozwolił mu sam Bóg.Faust to dzieło życia Goethego, dramat o możliwościach ludzkiego poznania i sensie istnienia świata.

What is Faust? To me, there is no answer to that question. Faust evades description and assignment. It is many things at once: pure poetry, closet play, classical tragedy, and even comedy. It is irreverent to its own material, changing in focus and mood at whim. Goethe shamelessly cuts into the most dramatic moments of the Gretchen tragedy to include completely spurious epigrams. At a glance, the wager between Faust and Mephistopheles seems almost tacked on to the parts dealing with hisI read Johann Goethe's Faust in English and partially in German during a college course many years ago. It had a huge impact on me as a person and me as a writer. Due to it being somewhat "out there," I held back a full 5 rating; however, I cannot stress how much this book makes you think. Beware, it's a little heavy on the literary side, but it's still worth a read, even if you just read the first portion. That said, 4 out of 5 stars...Detailed Review(about 1/3 of a paper I wrote about it a few
This was assigned reading for university. I was quite confused and disconnected from the play as I read it. Although I did understand and could follow what was happening, I was lost as to the relevance of the play. I did not enjoy reading it. But then I continued on to analysing the play and studying it - and there was where I discovered its worth, the themes it discusses and could appreciate the wit and aim of the play more. But it still couldn't be counted as an enjoyable or very enlightening
Tricksters make this world...Lord to Mephisto: "And never come but finding fault always? Never a thing on earth gives you content?"The first conversation between the Lord and Mephisto begins with Mephisto's discontentment towards people in earth. He cannot understand the disparity between humans. The discontentment isn't really a discontentment but inability to accept the things the way they are. Isn't that ambition all about? He doesn't say that out loud but its given to him as an answer by the
This is not a review.I cannot attempt to write a review of Goethe's Faust. It is a much too personal experience, growing with each time I reread it. Since high school, I have been thinking at least five times: "This is the perfect Goethe moment, his work is written for ME, NOW, it can't get any better, deeper, or any more satisfying."Well, apparently it can. After maybe three or four years, I picked up Faust again, and found that I had finally grown up enough to identify with his most famous
Boythis is very dramatic, isnt it?
Philosophy, blasphemy, sorcery, seduction, murder and orgyoh my!So at the roaring loam of timeI weave the godheads living garment.I didnt have the kind of education in which this book was required reading - not that I ever really bothered to read whatever was required anyway. And failing to remember Goethe in answer to an IQ question 10 years ago has ever since bothered me to some degree or another. But if such things were in the works to ensure that when I did read this book I would be most
