David Luke is also the translator of Faust, Part One (1987) in World's Classics.
This is a new translation of Faust, Part Two by David Luke, whose translation of Faust, Part I was the winner of the European Poetry Translation Prize. Here, Luke expertly imitates the varied verse-forms of the original, and provides a highly readable and actable translation which includes an introduction, full notes, and an index of classical mythology.
This is a facsimile of the original 1833 English translation of Goethe's epic. For serious literature collections only.
