About the Author

Arrigo Boito, ne a Padoue en 1842 et mort a Milan en 1918, est le frere de Camillo Boito, l auteur de "Senso" que Visconti a porte a l ecran en 1954. Il est surtout connu pour avoir compose des operas, dont le plus celebre est "Mefistofele" (1868), et plus particulierement pour l ecriture des livrets de quelques grands operas de G. Verdi: "Simon Boccanegra, Otello, Falstaff". On le rapproche de l ecole italienne tardo-romantique de la -Scapigliatura milanese- qui essaie de conferer au romantisme historique italien une dimension fantastique.

Paperback. Condition: New. Print on Demand. This book delves into the timeless tale of Faust, a scholar consumed by a thirst for knowledge and a longing for ultimate fulfillment. Set against the backdrop of 19th-century Romanticism, the author weaves a dramatic narrative exploring the human condition, the complexities of morality, and the eternal struggle between good and evil. The story follows Faust as he makes a pact with Mephistopheles, a charismatic devil figure, who promises to grant him limitless experiences and unearthly powers in exchange for his soul. Through a series of adventures, Faust encounters love, loss, temptation, and the consequences of his choices. The author masterfully employs vivid imagery, lyrical language, and philosophical insights to examine themes of ambition, redemption, and the nature of the human spirit. By interweaving elements of folklore, mythology, and Christian theology, this book offers a profound reflection on the universal search for meaning and the enduring power of the Faustian legend. The author's exploration of morality and the human psyche continues to resonate with readers, inviting contemplation on the choices we make and the legacies we leave behind.
