Reading The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus | Alexandria
Read The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe. Selling his soul to the devil, Faustus embodies humanity's eternal struggle between knowledge and morality. His fatal bargain reveals the hidden cost of unchecked ambition - not damnation, but the realization that power without purpose leads to emptiness. A Renaissance cautionary tale that eerily mirrors our modern pursuit of progress at any price.
