Description

Marlowe's Goethe's Faust, From The German (1889) is a book that contains two plays - Christopher Marlowe's ""Doctor Faustus"" and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's ""Faust"". The book is a translation of Goethe's ""Faust"" from the German language. The plays are about a man named Faust who makes a deal with the devil in exchange for knowledge and power. Marlowe's play was written in the late 16th century, while Goethe's play was written in the late 18th and early 19th centuries. The book is a comparison of the two plays and provides insight into the similarities and differences between them. It also includes an introduction and notes by the translator. The book is a must-read for anyone interested in literature, especially those interested in the Faustian theme.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations. Because we believe this work is culturally important, we have made it available as part of our commitment for protecting, preserving, and promoting the world's literature in affordable, high quality, modern editions, that are true to their original work.
