Money and magic a critique of the modern economy in the light of Goethe's Faust

Although Faust is widely celebrated as a literary classic few readers have appreciated its penetrating insights into the enduring social problems of the modern economy. Faust is permeated with financial allusions; Goethe, who was finance minister at the Weimar court, was as intrigued by the alchemy of creating boundless wealth through paper money as he was troubled by the social and cultural consequences of the Industrial Revolution.
