{"product_id":"dr-faustus-christopher-marlowe-9781984195579","title":"Dr. Faustus","description":"In this foundational classic play, Christopher Marlowe beautifully retells the legend of Doctor Faustus in a masterful combination of verse and prose. The celebrated moral of the play is about how excessive ambition and unlimited lust for knowledge and power lead to self-destruction and damnation. The protagonist in the story is a talented lower-class man who is obsessed with the study of sciences and the secrets of life. His excessive academic ambition and his reliance solely on logic and reason lead him to cogitate about the nature of the world and its existence and to question the utility of the \"doctrine of Divinity.\" Unsatisfied with the knowledge that pure and experimental sciences can offer, he eventually decides to explore the curious world of Black Magic.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Christopher Marlowe\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1984195573\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781984195579\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Createspace Independent Publishing Platform\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 02\/09\/2018\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 72\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.24lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.02h x 5.98w x 0.15d","brand":"Christopher Marlowe","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":44125869342975,"sku":"9781984195579","price":6.38,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_5c8c668d-b480-4db7-a04e-7fe3d7ccf576.jpg?v=1687445025","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/dr-faustus-christopher-marlowe-9781984195579","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
