Review: Goethe Faust: Part Two - The translation is extremely well done. The introduction is very insightful without spoiling the content of the book. I was very much moved by the translator's descriptions of Goethe's inner world and, by placing it in a historical context, it was not a bit boring, but very interesting. I love the style of translation, which was very creative, poetic, lyrical, and fluent. I read Part Two of Faust when I was in high school, but it is so refreshing to read it again at 65 with this new translation. Thank you very much. Review: A Readable and Witty Translation - I don't know German, so I can't vouch for the accuracy of the this translation. I can say that it is a wonderfully readable work in English. The annotations are very helpful. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #60,712 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #12 in Tragic Dramas & Plays (Books) #68 in European Dramas & Plays #1,992 in Classic Literature & Fiction | | Customer Reviews | 4.7 out of 5 stars 187 Reviews | ## Images ![Faust (Oxford World's Classics) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/81BTw8iw1mL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Goethe Faust: Part Two *by A***R on April 20, 2012* The translation is extremely well done.

I can say that it is a wonderfully readable work in English. The annotations are very helpful. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ A attractive story *by D***A on July 8, 2013* It is Goethe's philosophy of life that I was attracted. Because I thought that it penetrates into the story deeply. I am very interested in knowing whether Goethe believed the soul and a spiritual world. Faust is love with the beautiful woman of Helena in the ancient Greece. Thus Foust let Mephistopheles show in ancient Greece. In other words it is a spiritual world. Otherwise it is the world of the fantasy. Faust meets the animal that the face is a person, and the body is a horse. His name is called Chiron. It is said that he has given Helena a ride on his horseback. So Faust has a ride in his horseback. The scene which comes across Chiron. 【On the earth I hear a drumming As of hurried hoof-beats coming. Far off I see Good luck approaching me. Can this already be My wondorous destny? It is a horseman; I can tell That he is bold and wise as well The steed he rides is gleaming white... I recognize him - I am right- Philyra's great and famous son! Stop, Chiron, stop! I have to speak to you.... 】 Last words of the Faust story is very splendid. All that must disappear is but a parable. This way of thinking resemles Oriental Buddhology. ## Frequently Bought Together - Faust (Oxford World's Classics) - Phillis Wheatley, Complete Writings --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/1695177-faust-oxford-worlds-classics](https://www.desertcart.com.kw/products/1695177-faust-oxford-worlds-classics) --- *Product available on Desertcart Kuwait* *Store origin: KW* *Last updated: 2026-06-18*
