Horror with a vengeance • • • • • (bewertet mit 4 von 5 Punkten) I once read that "Dr Faustus" by Christopher Marlowe was a prime example of pre-Gothic horror, and I can put my name to that. The play has aspects of suspense, morality and tragedy, all couched in wondrous language. In its bare tragic tone, I think this story is the best one ever retelling the life of Faust. The "hero's" final mad soliloquy before being taken by the fiends is certainly among the strongest poetry I've read. I enjoyed it immensely, since it shook me to the depths of my soul. There is plenty of broad humour in the middle which kind of breaks the plot, but without it the tension might have been unbearable. If I could only write like this!
