About this book
Creators: Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) and John Stuart Blackie (1809-1895) [Translator] "Faust: A Tragedy" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a tragic play in two parts, with Part One published in 1808 and Part Two in 1832. When Mephistopheles bets God he can corrupt the scholar Faust, a fateful wager begins. Faust agrees to serve the devil in the afterlife—but only if Mephistopheles can give him a moment so perfect he wishes it would last forever. What follows involves seduction, tragedy, and a journey through earthly and mystical realms, testing the limits of knowledge, desire, and redemption. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
