The Faust Legend and the Human
This seminar invites papers on the Faustian trope throughout
world literature, in particular the concept of the human and
its relation to knowledge, immortality, and magic. Papers
may include analyses of canonical versions of the Faust
story (Christopher Marlowe, Goethe, Thomas Mann) as well as
non-canonical and interdisciplinary approaches.
