In this book, Jane K. Brown offers an original reading of Goethe's complex masterpiece in the context of European Romanticism. Looking at the two parts of Faust in sequence, she views the second part as an elaboration of what was implicit in the first, and she clarifies the patterns of thought and organization underlying the play. In Faust, she argues, Goethe not only situates German culture within the wider European literary tradition, but also demonstrates that all literature is by its nature allusive―that it exists only as part of a tradition.

Goethe has long been enshrined as the greatest German poet, but his admirers have always been uneasy with the idea that he did not produce a great epic poem. A master in all the other genres and modes, it has been felt, should have done so. Arnd Bohm proposes that Goethe did compose an epic poem, which has been hidden in plain view: Faust. Goethe saw that the Faust legends provided the stuff for a national epic: a German hero, a villain (Mephistopheles), a quest (to know all things), a sublime conflict (good versus evil), a love story (via Helen of Troy), and elasticity (all human knowledge could be accommodated by the plot). Bohm reveals the care with which Goethe draws upon such sources as Tasso, Ariosto, Dante, and Vergil. In the microcosm of the "Auerbachs Keller" episode Faust has the opportunity to find "what holds the world together in its essence" and to end his quest happily, but he fails. He forgets the future because he cannot remember what epic teaches. His course ends tragically, bringing him back to the origin of epic, as he replicates the Trojans' mistake of presuming to cheat the gods. Arnd Bohm is Associate Professor of English at Carleton University, Ottawa.

Together they embark on the journey from heaven through the world to hell.Johann Wolfgang von Goethe finished the first part of his brilliant drama in 1806. Taken from the Middle Ages, Goethe reinterprets the material in a humanistic, enlightened way. The striving for knowledge of his hero is determined by Goethe as a deep human beings. His drama he described as „world poetry“. He specifically has determined it for the whole world.

It is a hardcover book published with a dust jacket price of $15.00 in 1976 as a First Printing by Farrar, Straus and Giroux, New York. Faust Part One takes place in multiple settings, the first of which is Heaven. The demon Mephistopheles makes a bet with God: he says that he can lure God's favourite human being (Faust), who is striving to learn everything that can be known, away from righteous pursuits. The next scene takes place in Faust's study where Faust, despairing at the vanity of scientific, humanitarian and religious learning, turns to magic for the showering of infinite knowledge. He suspects, however, that his attempts are failing. Frustrated, he ponders suicide, but rejects it as he hears the echo of nearby Easter celebrations begin. He goes for a walk with his assistant Wagner and is followed home by a dog. In Faust's study, the dog transforms into Mephistopheles. Faust makes an arrangement with him: Mephistopheles will do everything that Faust wants while he is here on Earth, and in exchange Faust will serve the Devil in Hell. The translator, Randall Jarrell (1914 -1965) was an American poet, literary critic, children's author, essayist, and novelist. He was the 11th Consultant in Poetry to the Library of Congress-a position that now bears the title Poet Laureate of the United States. Among other honors, Jarrell was awarded the National Book Award for Poetry, in 1961.

Excerpt from Goethe's Faust, Vol. 1: A CommentaryIn such universal sense the periphery Of the Faust legend broadens out into the twilight Of History, reaching far back into Asia and taking in the very origin of the long human discipline. Goethe has not omitted this far-reaching sug gestion; in the Prologue in Heaven we shall see him calling up the grand dualism in its two persons, the Lord and Mephisto, who exist, as it were, before the human beginning, and talk together about the terrestrial being, Man, and his destiny.Indeed, the very form and conception of this dialogue carries us back to the book of Job, one Of the Oldest Of Asiatic books. Thus at the start of the poem, and underlying it, we find the spiritual or Hebraic strand; in the same Prologue we shall have a hint of the natural or Aryan strand, in that cosmical song of the Archangels, singing Of Sun and Earth, of Light and Darkness, of the conflicts of the elements, as their image of the grand struggle, which struggle, however, has not yet deepened in them to the spiritual denial of Mephisto. Perhaps this thought did not lie in the conscious intention of the Poet; but he is a seer, beholding realities and if we would compre pend him, we must follow up his vision with our thought and knowledge.About the PublisherForgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
