Excerpt from Goethes Faust, Vol. 1: Edited With Introduction and Commentary
The present edition of the First Part of Goethe's Faust aims to be a modest contribution on the part of American scholarship to the commemoration of the approaching centenary of the first publication of the drama, one of the most important events in the history of human civilization. Even before the ap pearence of the completed poem, Schelling, one of the foremost thinkers of the time, had with prophetic vision called it a fountain of youth from which the rejuvenation of life and science was destined to flow. Recognizing the deep philosophical meaning of this characteristic German production, Schelling's te marks ushered in at the same time the so-called phil osophical interpretation of the drama which pre vailed during the subsequent long period of the domination of Hegel's Aesthetics.

Excerpt from Goethes Faust, Vol. 1: Edited With Introduction and Commentary
It would thus appear almost impossible to con tribute anything new to the elucidation of a work, the difficulties of which have challenged the penetration' of the leading minds for a whole century. Neverthe less, much of the vast literature which has accumu lated about this work, to-day appears strangely anti quated. Like all the really great productions of literature this world-poem possesses the magic power of appealing in a different way to every new genera tion; and like the fathomless crystal-lake of the high Sierras it re ects only the picture of the beholder.

Paperback. Zustand: New. Print on Demand. This book is a comprehensive analysis of Goethe's Faust, an epic poem that's both a literary and philosophical masterpiece. The author suggests that Goethe's interest in alchemy and theosophy, prominent ideas in the era, profoundly influenced the work. The author argues that Goethe's Faust is not merely a retelling of the medieval legend about a man who makes a pact with the devil. Instead, the author suggests that the work is a complex exploration of human nature, desire, and the search for meaning in life. The book delves into the poem's rich symbolism, its exploration of good and evil, and its insights into the human condition. Through an examination of the protagonist's journey and interactions with Mephistopheles, the author highlights Goethe's nuanced understanding of humanity's potential for both great good and evil. This book is an essential read for anyone interested in Goethe's Faust, German literature, or the broader themes of human existence and the search for meaning. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format.
