The story of the German scholar Johann Georg Faust has been transformed into a legend which has inspired numerous writers, composers and artists. In this course we will study three famous literary adaptations of the legend: those by Christopher Marlowe (c. 1604), Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1808) and Thomas Mann (1947). We will focus on how the theme has been developed in order to respond to different periods of cultural history.
