project day

Faust at a glance – between visual imagery and textual worlds

In this project day, students learn more about the author and his “Faust I.” After an introduction to Goethe's work, the students work in small groups to examine a key scene of their choice in depth and translate it into a comic.

Faust – A Media Legend

Using the example of the Weimar Faust collection, the question of how literary figures become canonical and later elements of pop culture is examined. In a subsequent work unit, the students deal in depth with specific topics such as “Faust in the visual arts” or “Faust in contemporary popular culture.”

Tip! Even more Faust in the evening?

Both the stellwerk – junges theater and the German National Theater Weimar are staging productions of Faust.
