«Reminiscences de “Robert le Diable”» by F. Liszt in the Aspect of Mephistopheles Symbolism by N. S. Zolotaryova

“…Liszt’s heritage, it has been revealed that the Faustian-Mephistopheles theme is a cross-cutting in his work: the «Faust Symphony», the “Mephisto Waltzes” (The Dance in the Village Inn) from Lenau’s Faust, the “Second Mephisto Waltz”, the “Third Mephisto Waltz”, the “Fourth Mephisto Waltz “(Bagatelle without tonality), the “Mephisto Polka” and others; and the embodiment of the infernal origins from the perspective of dance-waltz is a characteristic feature of the piano creativity of the romantic composer and has turned out to be close for F. …”

Fausto en tiempos de don Porfirio by José Ricardo Chaves

Don Juan: eine Tragödie. Faustian intertextuality and tragic rewriting in E. T. A. Hoffmann's tale by Francesco Marola

“…The purpose of the paper is to highlight the presence in the Don Juan of many intertextual references to Goethe’s Faust, not fully noticed by critics so far, through which it is possible to read such tragic rewritingas a declared synthesis of the two myths, where don Juan takes the role of Faust-Mephistopheles and donna Anna that of Gretchen. The rewriting of the myth culminates in the final mirroring of the narrator in Anna-Gretchen. …”
