Faust, a scholar, finds himself in the midst of despair, realizing that his worldly pursuits and studies have been a farce. It’s then that he makes a pact with Mephistopheles, who promises to serve Faust, grant his every wish, and give him purpose again—a virtual heaven on earth. There’s just one catch: upon Faust’s death, it will be he who will serve—in hell.
In one of the greatest works of German literature, Goethe explores the human need for meaning and the desire for power over one’s own fate, regardless of the consequences.
