October 4, 2025 @ 4:00 pm - 6:00 pm

The Great Books and World Classics Discussion Group is a joint project of Northern New Jersey Mensa and Mensa in Georgia. One of the greatest works of German literature, Faust is a two-part play by Johann Wolfgang von Goethe.

Mephistopheles (the devil) makes a bet with God: he says that he can lure one of God’s servants (Faust), who is striving to learn everything that can be known, away from righteous pursuits.

Read the play (German and English, side-by-side translation).
