Mannfred vs Faust Anonymous Tue Mar 24 03:32:44 2020 No.14940351 [Reply] [Original]

After writing Mannfred, Byron was accused of plagiarizing Goethe's Faust. Goethe, in retaliation for alleged plagiarism, accused Byron of hypochondria. In response, Byron claimed that he never read Fast, which I think was a lie.

Nietzsche on Mannfred and Faust:
"I must be profoundly related to Byron's Mannfed: all these abysses found in myself; at the age of thirteen, I was ripe for this work. I have no word, only a glance for those who dare pronounce the word "Faust" in the presence of Mannfred. The Germans are incapable of any notion of greatness.

Both deal with the guilt of the extremely intellectual protagonist who doomed their women, Astarte and Gretchen respectively. I find the idea that Byron did not read Faust before writing Mannfred to be difficult to believe

Also both make deals with the ones from the hell.

Goethe never invented Faust. Faust was a real person.

Mephistopheles wasn't an invention by Goethe either.
Please stop shitting up this board.

>>	Anonymous Tue Mar 24 04:31:53 2020 No.14940539 what? wasn't the character Euphorion in Faust part II literally a homage from Goethe to Byron, who was already dead and who Goethe admired?

>>	Anonymous Tue Mar 24 04:34:00 2020 No.14940544 >>14940539 i guess he could still have plagiarized part I, but seems like Goethe quite admired Byron too
