He did this under a secularizing direction, in which the duo of Faust and Mephistopheles loses metaphysical altitude and becomes more earthly and bourgeois, with mundane preoccupations relating to love and artistic triumph, in which there is no blood contract since the devil gives his services without asking for anything in return. |
