The collection features 51 volumes of essential writings from literature, philosophy, history, and mythology, curated by Charles William Eliot, Harvard's longest-serving president.

Dr Faustus is the epitome of Renaissance aspiration- a man with the thirst for knowledge that marked the age in which Marlowe wrote. Faustus envisages a world of power and delight 'which stretcheth as far as doth the mind of man' and turns longing eyes on the magic books that will make him 'a mighty god' - and ultimately damn him forever. Dr Faustus is a very popular text, frequently studied and performed.
