Along with Eric Blackall’s fresh translation of the work, this edition contains notes and an afterword by the translator that aims to put this novel into historical and artistic perspective for twent

Goethe’s most complex and profound work, Faust was the effort of the great poet’s entire lifetime. Written over 60 years, it can be read as a document of Goethe’s moral and artistic development. Faust is made available to the English reader in a completely new translation that communicates both its poetic variety and its many levels of tone. The language is present-day English, and Goethe’s formal and rhythmic variety is reproduced in all its richness.

In 1957 he inscribed Goethe’s motto on the first page of his notebook: "Ohne Hast aber ohne Rast" ("Without haste but without rest"), and from then until his death in 1965 he worked on the masterpiece of his "own favorite daemon, dear good great Goethe."
