Dr. Johann Faustus was a German alchemist of the first half of the sixteenth century, whose fame as "the great blacksmith" was so grandiose that folk tales created a bizarre legend about him. This legend became part of European folklore and inspired many writers - both Renaissance and modern - but none of them managed to rise to the heights of Goethe.
Goethe's Faust is not just a man who sold his soul to the devil (although the writer has fully preserved almost all the plot features of the legend), but a great scientist, intellectual and humanist, dreaming of the happiness of all mankind and tirelessly seeking ways to achieve it. He doubts, makes mistakes, fails, but continues his ascetic labor. "Faust" - a work that Goethe wrote almost all his life, with all its complexity, multidimensional, with all the fact that it reflects both ancient myths, and German folklore, and philosophical ideas of different times, and biblical subjects - a surprisingly fascinating reading. And the modern reader, delving into "Faust" and thinking about the meaning of life and even the fate of all mankind, will definitely not be bored.
