"Faust" calls itself "A Tragedy" right enough, but it might just as
well be described as a musical comedy -- it's ripe with comic
passages, features many songs, and lacks a tragic ending. And Faust
isn't a classic tragic figure, either. In fact, his characteristic
yearning for experience and knowledge created a type for the
romantic age still known as the Faustian hero. The villain of the
piece -- Mephistopheles -- is one of the most likeable characters
in the play. His yearnings draw him toward the heavens, yet he is
also powerfully attracted to the physical world.
