It's interesting to see different aspects of Faust and different perspective. I feel like it really tied a lot of things together and provided new insights. Plus the background information is really useful.
This is a really great overview of the Faust myth! I like how it breaks down the different aspects, like Helen of Troy, to the Faust myth.
ReplyDeleteI also like the outline's emphasis on the Age of Enlightenment's rationality in Faust works, especially since Thomas Mann's Doctor Faustus involves modernism, which includes a rebellion against Enlightenment ideals.
I can't believe this excludes the Faust-based episodes of the Simpsons!
