by Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe adapted by ANTHONY VIVIS from the abridged translation by lovis
MACNEICE and E. L. STAHL
The medieval folk-legend of a magus who makes a pact with the devil forms the basis of Goethe's famous work.
Disenchanted with the limitations of his academic knowledge. Dr Faust decides to study the arts of magic and to master the supernatural. Mephistopheles appears and offers Faust renewed youth and the power to experience the reality and the mystery of life and all the human suffering it will involve.
Faust signs an agreement with the devil. but his soul will only be forfeited If ever his restless spirit is satisfied and content. Part 1
