description: In this erudite and beautifully written book, an eminent scholar meditates on the theological implications of Goethe`s Faust. Jaroslav Pelikan considers Goethe`s statement that he was a pantheist when it came to science, a polytheist in art, and a monotheist in ethics, and he uses it for the first time to analyze Faust`s development as a theologian-thereby enabling us to see Goethe`s masterpiece in a surprising new light.
