Hardcover. Condizione: Good. First Edition Thus. First edition thus. No date; circa 1925. Large, 6 1/2" x 10" design. A Fine Art Edition of Goethe's Great Classic. Blue and purple floral marbled motif to boards, red cloth spine wrap with spine titles, some cover, edge wear, rub, toning. Doubleday, Doran at heel of spine. George…H. Doran Co. at title page. Thick, rough-cut deckled pages generally very good; some chip at endpapers. String-bind good; hinges reinforced. Art nouveau illustrator Willy Pogany is exhibited w/sixteen full-page, beautifully coloured, linen plates w/black & white decoration, vignettes and drawings throughout. Truly ntriguing book design and craftsmanship. Fairly worn boards with near very good, clean interior. This edition includes a preface by Roger Ingpen, Goethe's dedication, prologues for the theatre and in heaven, an appendix including Percy Blythe Shelley's translation of works by Goethe, and a special notes section. The Faustian legend has captured the imagination for centuries. In Goethe's Faust, the reader discovers the most famous expression of this old German tale. The classic story of a man who makes the deal with the devil and pays with his soul. The influence of this theme on literature cannot be understated. The second part of Goethe's masterpiece opens with Faust struggling to recover from the death of his beloved Gretchen. The quick-witted demon Mephistopheles soon persuades him to look beyond his sorrow and enter the world of politics and power, but the great scholar is still eager for new sensations, and asks Mephistopheles to reveal Helen of Troy to him in a vision. Overwhelmed by her beauty, Faust demands she be brought back from the underworld - but even this fails to bring him contentment, and his appetite for knowledge remains unsated. Completed a few months before Goethe's death, this rich and allusive work weaves together a wealth of diverse philosophical ideas and influences, reworking the medieval myth of Dr. Faustus and speculating upon the search for truth in the Age of Enlightenment. Made and Printed in Great Britain by Percy Lund, Humphries & Co., Ltd., Bradford. 210 pages. Insured post. Size: 8vo - over 7¾ - 9¾" Tall. Pogany, Willy (illustratore). Book.
