Goethe’s “Faust” and Freud’s “Civilization and Its Discontents”
[ send me this essay ]
This 5 page report discusses Sigmund Freud’s “Civilization and its Discontents” (1929-30) and applies it to a literary character -- Mephistopheles -- from Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s “Faust.” Both are tangentially based on the real world and real people, however, both are shaped and manipulated by their “founders.” For that reason Mephistopheles serves as one of the most valuable subjects or characters from Faust to consider in light of Freud’s theories in “Civilization and its Discontents.” Bibliography lists 4 sources.

[ send me this essay ]
This 5 page report discusses Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832) and his quote -- “He who cannot draw on three thousand years is living from hand to mouth.” “Sophie’s World,” the recent novel by Jostein Gaarder (which begins with the quotation from Goethe) demonstrates the ways in which modern humanity must be aware of its own history and the ways in which that history has shaped the contemporary world and the fact that a failure to pay attention to such history assures that the same human problems will continuously present themselves. Bibliography lists 2 sources.

Goethe/Faust, Part I
[ send me this essay ]
A 3 page essay that examines Goethe's Faust, Part I and argues that while it is Faust who is the presumed genius, the man of letters and learning and Margaret, his love, is but a simple peasant girl, it is Margaret who has learned from her experiences at the end of Goethe's Faust, Part I, not the learned doctor. This is evidenced by Faust's continued association with the devil, Mephistopheles, while Margaret rejects them both, repents, and is, therefore, taken to heaven. No additional sources cited.
