Faust - first part of the tragedy

Que faut-il savoir sur ce produit ?

«You two, who oft a helping hand Have lent, in need and tribulation.Come, let me know your expectation Of this, our enterprise, in German land!...» Faust is a tragic play, is Goethe's magnum opus and considered by many to be one of the greatest works of German literature.Faust Part One takes place in multiple settings, the first of which is heaven. Mephistopheles makes a bet with God: he says that he can lure God's favourite human being (Faust), who is striving to learn everything that can be known, away from righteous pursuits. The next scene takes place in Faust's study where Faust, despairing at the vanity of scientific, humanitarian and religious learning, turns to magic for the showering of infinite knowledge. He suspects, however, that his attempts are failing. Frustrated, he ponders suicide, but rejects it as he hears the echo of nearby Easter celebrations begin. He goes for a walk with his assistant Wagner and is followed home by a stray poodle (the term then meant a medium-to-big-size dog, similar to a sheep dog).
