What does the character Dr.Faustus suggest about the idea of the Renaissance Man???

English
1 answer:
sattari [20]3 years ago
6 0

So, Dr. Faustus is an embodiment of curiosity gone wild. His blase attitude towards humanistic science is, however, some kind of a scientific decadence: he casts away philosophy and law, to embrace magic, as a relic of medieval obsession over mysticism. In this regard, he is a subversion of the Renaissance Man. He thinks he has already learned all there was to learn about this world, so now he yearns for another kind of knowledge - esoteric, otherworldly, knowledge that isn't exactly a knowledge because you don't have to study long and hard for it, you just have to sell your soul to Lucifer.

When do you use formal diction
Leviafan [203]

hello there! :)

you can use formal diction when you want to entertain, amuse, inform, or plead someone. words chosen to impart a particular effect on the reader reflect and sustain the writer's purpose. if your purpose is to inform, the reader should expect straightforward diction.
