Faust: Dramatisch dichtstuk van Goethe [deel 1]
"Faust: Dramatisch dichtstuk van Goethe [deel 1]" by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe is a tragic play first published in 1808. When the Devil's agent Mephistopheles wagers he can lead the scholar Dr. Faust astray, a cosmic bet begins. Disillusioned with science and knowledge, Faust signs a blood contract trading his soul for earthly pleasures. What follows is seduction, tragedy, and death as Faust pursues the innocent Gretchen, leaving destruction in his wake while Mephistopheles schemes to claim his prize.
