Faust [première partie] by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe
"Faust [première partie]" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a tragedy published in 1808. The aging scholar Heinrich Faust, dissatisfied with the limits of knowledge and unable to enjoy life's fullness, makes a wager with the devil Mephistopheles. In exchange for his soul, Mephisto promises to free Faust from discontent through constant diversion. Transformed into a young man, Faust is led into a passionate affair with the innocent Margarete, setting in motion
events that bring devastating consequences to all involved. (This is an automatically generated summary.)
