Reprint of 1892-1897 ed. ; lxxxii, 353, [8] pp. ; blue cloth ; no dustjacket ; OCLC: 829304354; LC: PT1916.A2; PT1916 ; "Goethe's masterpiece and perhaps the greatest work in German literature, Faust has made the legendary German alchemist one of the central myths of the Western world. Here indeed is a monumental Faust, an audacious man boldly wagering with the devil, Mephistopheles, that no magic, sensuality, experience, or knowledge can lead him to a moment he would wish to last forever. Here, in Faust, Part I, the tremendous versatility of Goethe's genius creates some of the most beautiful passages in literature. Here too we experience Goethe's characteristic humor, the excitement and eroticism of the witches' Walpurgis Night, and the moving emotion of Gretchen's tragic fate." ; spots on textblock, pencilings on front endpaper and in a few places in the text ; printed in German Gothic Fraktur type ; copious and detailed notes ; VG.
