  • Johann Georg Faust
    Johann Georg Faust Dr. Johann Georg Faust (approx. 1480 – 1540) was a German alchemist who was born in the village of Knittlingen, Württemberg (it is also claimed in Roda in the province of Weimar, and also in Helmstadt near Heidelberg in 1466). He has alternatively been known by the names “Johann Sabellicus” and “Georg Faust.” In 1507, Johannes Trithemius of Sponheim wrote that Faust was a con-man and a drifter who preyed on the gullible. He said he had fled a teaching position in Kreuznach after molesting several of the boys there. He may have then gone on to the University of Heidelberg to study, obtaining a degree in divinity from Heidelberg University in 1509, and then to Poland where a friend of Martin Luther, Philip Melanchthon, says Faust studied magic at the University of Kraków. Martin Luther and Philipp Melanchthon are said to have alleged Faust’s companionship with the devil. After that, he appears at the University of Ehrfut in central Germany. It is said that when he lectured on Homer he conjured up Homer’s heroes for his students. He was expelled from Ehrfut by the Franciscan monk Dr. Klinge (who was the cathedral preacher from 1520-1556). Dr. Klinge asked for Faust’s repentance. Faust refused the monk’s offer of intervention and admitted having signed a pact with the Devil, and said that he trusted the Devil more than God. In 1523 he is said to have visited Auerbach’s Tavern in Leipzig where he conjured wine out of a table, and rode a barrel of wine.

  • Outros Faustos: As Influências Da Tradição Sobre O Fausto Pessoano
    Outros Faustos: as influências da tradição sobre o Fausto pessoano Rodrigo Xavier*, Daniela Bos** & Carlos Pittella*** Palavras-chave Fausto, Influências literárias, Intertextualidade, Fernando Pessoa, Goethe, Lord Byron, Gomes Leal, Eugénio de Castro, Christopher Marlowe, Eça de Queiroz. Resumo Embora Fernando Pessoa tenha sido indiscutivelmente influenciado por Goethe ao recriar a lenda do Fausto, argumenta-se aqui que uma série de outros poetas e prosadores terão impactado, positiva e negativamente, em maior ou menor grau, o desenvolvimento do Fausto pessoano. Este artigo visa, pois, a reconstruir tais influências, a partir de evidências encontradas no espólio pessoano na Biblioteca Nacional de Portugal e na biblioteca particular do poeta na Casa Fernando Pessoa. Keywords Faust, Literary influences, Intertextuality, Fernando Pessoa, Goethe, Lord Byron, Gomes Leal, Eugénio de Castro, Christopher Marlowe, Eça de Queiroz. Abstract If Fernando Pessoa was undeniably influenced by Goethe to recreate the legend of Faust, here we argue that a series of other poets and prose writers did also impact, positively and negatively, to a greater or lesser degree, the development of Pessoa’s Faust. This article intends, thus, to reconstruct these influences, based on evidence found in the Pessoa archive at the National Library of Portugal and in the poet’s private library at the Casa Fernando Pessoa. * Universidade Federal do Rio de Janeiro, Departamento de Literaturas Vernáculas, Cátedra Jorge de Sena para Estudos Luso-Afro-Brasileiros. ** Universidade Tecnológica Federal do Paraná, Departamento de Letras. *** Brown University, Departamento de Estudos Portugueses e Brasileiros; Universidade de Lisboa, Faculdade de Letras, Centro de Estudos de Teatro.

  • Student Life and Campus Culture at Depaul
    CHAPTER FIVE STUDENT LIFE AND CAMPUS CULTURE AT DEPAUL A Hundred Year History John 1. Rury hroughout DePaul's history, its students have contributed to the institution's distinctive character. Since 1898, as the university has changed and the campus has grown, a vibrant student culture has evolved. This was hardly unique to DePaul. In many respects, the university's students have reflected national trends in their activities and interests. But as an urban institution, DePaul's location and programs have affected the character of its students and their activities. Historically, Chicago has been a city of immigrants, and over the years DePaul has served the city's principal immigrant groups. It has ministered to Chicago's Roman Catholic popula­ tion, to be sure, but it has also provided educational opportunities for others. As constituents of an urban university, DePaul's students have reflected the diversity and vitality one would expect of a major Chicago institution of higher learning. This is an important part of the university's heritage. In coming together at DePaul, these students created a distinctive social world of their own that changed over time, often mirroring broader tendencies in student life. Still, certain features of the DePaul student experience were quite durable and helped to define an institu­ tional identity. While in many respects its students were similar to their counterparts at other institutions, there were aspects of life at DePaul that were unique. In part this was simply structural. Campus life at DePaul has long been divided between its downtown and uptown (or Lincoln Park) locations, with each site acquiring its own atmosphere.
