Originally published in 1965, this study examines the concealed
meanings in the second part of Faust, often considered obscure. It
is of value not only to students of literature but also comparative
religions, as it deals with Goethe's knowledge of ancient myths,
mysteries and Hellenistic religions. It is of value too, to those
interested in alchemy as it traces the many alchemical references
in Faust. The book gives a psychological interpretation of elements
of Goethe's personal life and work, which succeeds in making the
man and the veiled references in his most profound work accessible
to the modern reader.

1828. German poet, novelist, playwright, courtier, natural
philosopher, and one of the greatest figures in Western literature.
Throughout his life Goethe was interested in a variety of studies
and pursuits. He made important discoveries in connection with
plant and animal life, and evolved a non-Newtonian theory of the
character of light, which was viewed with suspicion by scientists.
