Faust

Dr. Johann Faustus - the German alchemist of the first half of the 16th century, whose glory of the "great warlock" was so grand that folk rumor created a bizarre legend about him. This legend became part of European folklore and inspired many writers - both the Renaissance period and modern ones - but none of them managed to rise to the heights of Goethe. The writer completely retained almost all the plot features of the legend), and the great scientist, the intellectual and humanist, who dreams of the happiness of all mankind and tirelessly seeking the path of its achievement. He doubts, makes mistakes, suffers failures, but continues his ascetic work.

“Faust” is a work that Goethe wrote almost all his life, for all his complexity, multifaceted, with all the fact that they found it in it reflection of ancient myths, and German folklore, and philosophical ideas of different times, and biblical plots are an amazingly fascinating reading.

and the modern reader, delving into Faust and thinking about the meaning of life and even on the fate of everything humanity, certainly will not get bored.
