«Fausto» is the drama by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, published in paperback (256 pages, in Spanish).
Doctor Faustus, a scholar dissatisfied with his knowledge, makes a pact with Mephistopheles to obtain pleasure, power and experiences that science cannot give him. The work reflects on human ambition, the meaning of knowledge and the limits of existence, within the best tradition of German philosophical drama.
The work was originally published in 1808. This edition belongs to the Literatura universal collection from Ediciones Alba, number 31.
For readers of classics and students of German philology, and for those interested in the Faustian myth.
Johann Wolfgang von Goethe was a German polymath who is widely regarded as the most influential writer in the German language. His work has had a wide-ranging influence on literary, political, Christian views, and philosophical thought in the Western world from the late 18th century to the present. A poet, playwright, novelist, scientist, statesman, theatre-director, and critic, Goethe wrote a wide range of works, including plays, poetry and aesthetic criticism, as well as treatises on botany, anatomy, and colour.
