克里斯托夫 马洛
Dr.Faustus is the greatest of Marlove's plays,in which the old German legend is freely reshaped.Faustus is a great scholar who has a stong desire to acquire all kinds of knowledge.He is bored of his present study on the academic curriculum and turn to black magic.By conjuration he calls up Mephistophilis,the Devil's servant.Faustus makes a bond to sell his soul to the Devil in return for twenty-four years of life in which he may have the services of Mephistophilis to give him everything he desires.With the help of the Devil,Faustus brings his magical art into full play,meanwhile Faustus has experienced much internal conflict,symbolized in the appearances of both Good Angel and Bad Angel.In the final scene,there remains only the terrifying soliloquy in which the anguish of the hero's mind is poignantly pressed.

克里斯托夫马洛的最伟大的代表作是《浮士德博士的悲剧》，它的故事取材于德国传奇，浮士德是一位伟大的学者，渴求各方领域的知识。他对中世纪一成不变的学科深感厌烦，开始转向一种黑色魔术。通过咒语他结识了梅菲斯特，也就是魔鬼的仆从。浮士德与魔鬼签立了协议，他将自己的灵魂卖给魔鬼作为回报，魔鬼则要在此后的二十四年里满足浮士德所有求知的愿望。在魔鬼的帮助下，他尽情施展魔术，与此同时，浮士德还经历了内心的矛盾与斗争，这是通过善天使与恶天使同时出现的情节来表达出来的。在最后一幕，只剩下一段恐惧的独白，生动透彻地揭示了浮士德内心的巨大痛苦。
