Abstract

Doctor Faustus by Christopher Marlowe is a Masterpiece. The auxiliary themes revolved in the story are the lessons of acquaintance, not only to the people of Elizabethan era but also to the present modern generation. It throws light on the seven deadly sins including Pride, lying, wickedness, mischief and Man’s limitations and his mortal potentials. It also talks about the importance of valuing wisdom over knowledge and valuing acts like ‘Mercy’, ‘Redemption’ and ‘Salvation’ of human soul.
