I remember that #Faust were such anarchists that they sort of split and both groups kept the name, so I ended up seeing both live

Faust: Unraveling the Great Enigma – S2 E5 The Wager

THE LORD

Enough! What thou hast asked is granted.
Turn off this spirit from his fountain-head;
To trap him, let thy snares be planted,
And him, with thee, be downward led;
Then stand abashed, when thou art forced to say:
A good man, through obscurest aspiration,
Has still an instinct of the one true way.

MEPHISTOPHELES

Agreed! But ’tis a short probation.
About my bet I feel no trepidation.
If I fulfill my expectation,
You’ll let me triumph with a swelling breast:
Dust shall he eat, and with a zest,
As did a certain snake, my near relation.

From Johann Wolfgang von Goethe, Faust, translated by Bayard Taylor (1870).

Before Faust enters his study. Before despair overtakes him. Before a pact is ever spoken. There is a conversation. In the “Prologue in Heaven,” Goethe stages a remarkable exchange between the Lord and Mephistopheles. It is here that we encounter one of the boldest ideas in all of literature that human striving, even when confused, is not condemned, but trusted.

This is not a simple battle between good and evil. Mephistopheles appears as a spirit of contradiction, a force that denies and unsettles. Yet he is permitted to test Faust, not because humanity is doomed, but because it is believed in.

While Man’s desires and aspirations stir, He cannot choose but err.”

Error, Goethe suggests, is the natural companion of aspiration. In this episode of Faust: Unravelling the Great Enigma, I explore the wager and the extraordinary confidence Goethe places in the searching soul. You are welcome to read alongside me, to pause with the lines, and to consider what it means to be trusted in our striving.

If something in this reading stays with you, I invite you into the Faust Salon, a quiet space for reflection, where we return not for answers, but for deeper questions. The door is always open.

On Easter Sunday, I often used to read "Osterspaziergang" ("Easter Walk") from Faust I (1808), by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe (1749-1832): "Hier bin ich Mensch, hier darf ich's sein!" ("Here I am and here I may be human!") I often also re-read "The Moon and the Yew Tree", by Sylvia

Schon gewusst, .. 😆

die #Faust ist eine Zusammenballung von #Hand einhergehend mit der entsprechenden Rudelbildung der #Finger. Gut für schlagkräftige Argumente und sogar kompakt genug, um #Dichter zu inspirieren – sei es bei der Namenswahl der Hauptfigur oder beim abendlichen Kneipenbesuch –, aber außerstande, die Grätenfrage zu beantworten. Davon berichtet selbst der #Teufel nur in Versen. 😜
