Goethe Johann Wolfgang
Summary
Johann Wolfgang Goethe: Faust
This visionary poetic drama, one of the peaks of world literature, is the author's main work. The process of creation covers, partly in unrelated stages, sixty years, and during this long period, the idea and the text changed their centers of gravity and stylistic determinants. The bet is the flywheel of all the events that take place in the First and Second Parts. Faust and Mephisto, paradoxically united opponents but also allies, on their magical journey through spaces and time periods, touch on essential human experiences, among which eroticism stands out in the First Part, and politics, economy, utopian myths in the Second. It is a journey, which with its symbols encompasses European cultural history from antiquity to the Renaissance and the 18th century, and is also the scene of constant dramatic illumination of two contrasting characters: Faust's unusual combination of rapture and skepticism, the sharpness of Mephisto's socially critical mind, which uses the dazzling seductiveness of nihilism.
