    ** Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's Faust is a tragic play in two parts:
    Faust. Der Tragödie erster Teil and Faust. Der Tragödie zweiter Teil - Goethe completed a preliminary version of Part One in 1806. The 1808 publication was followed by the revised 1828–29 edition, which was the last to be edited by Goethe himself. Goethe finished writing Faust Part Two in 1831. In contrast to Faust Part One, the focus here is no longer on the soul of Faust, which has been sold to the devil, but rather on social phenomena such as psychology, history and politics, in addition to mystical and philosophical topics. The second part formed the principal occupation of Goethe's last years. It appeared only posthumously in 1832. - Faust is Goethe's most famous work and considered by many to be one of the greatest works of German literature.
