                                                here...FAUST

Faust is the protagonist of a classic German legend; he is a highly too much successful Scholar person, but also he is dissatisfied with his own life, and so he makes a deal with the devil, he exchanging his soul for unlimited knowledge and worldly pleasures. Faust's tale is the basis for many literary, artistic, cinematic, and musical works.

The meaning of the word and name has been reinterpreted through the ages. Faust, and the adjective faustian, are often used to describe an arrangement in which an ambitious person surrenders moral integrity in order to achieve power and success: the proverbial "deal with the devil".

The Faust of early books—as well as the ballads, dramas, movies and pupet-plays which grew out of them—is irrevocably damned because he prefers human to divine knowledge; "he laid the Holy Scriptures behind the door and under the bench, refused to be called doctor of Theology, but preferred to be styled doctor of Medicine"
