Description

Faust and Marguerite: A Magical Drama is a play written by Charles John Kean in 1854. The play is based on the famous German legend of Faust, a scholar who makes a deal with the devil in exchange for knowledge and power. In Kean's version, Faust falls in love with Marguerite, a young woman who is innocent and pure. The play follows their tragic love story, as Faust's deal with the devil comes back to haunt him and Marguerite suffers the consequences. The play is a mix of drama and fantasy, with supernatural elements and magical effects. It explores themes of love, temptation, and the consequences of making deals with the devil. Kean's play is a unique interpretation of the Faust legend, and is considered a classic of Victorian theatre.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
