Once idealistic, he is now disillusioned and bitter with despair. He foresakes God and makes a perilous deal with the Devil in which he commits his soul to eternal damnation in return for power and knowledge in this life.
The legend has inspired many great writers, musicians, and other artists. The two most famous works on the Faust theme are Christopher Marlowe's The Tragical History of Doctor Faustus, and Johann Wolfgang Von Goethe's Faust.
