Answer:
- Identity versus role confusion.
Explanation:
'Identity versus role confusion' is illustrated as the fifth stage or phase of Erik Erikson's theory of 'psycho-social development' among the adolescent kids aging between 12 to 19 years of age. At this stage, adolescents tend to develop a recognition/sense of their 'selves' and affiliate it to their identity. In this phase, they experience a 'determinative' conflict as at this stage the success is affiliated with a tendency to stay faithful to their selves(identity) while the failure ends up in 'role confusion'.
As per the question, Joanne would likely be in this phase as she is going through the phase of 'developmental conflict' and suffers 'role confusion' as reflected by 'her revaluation of religious and political beliefs'. She tends to hold her 'self' and 'identity' over the confusions. Thus, she is going through '<u>Identity versus role confusion</u>' crisis stage of adulthood.
1. The Pope thinks Faustus is a ghost.
Faustus and Mephastophilis have become invisible and they came to the Pope to play tricks on him. They started flinging the dishes around the room and the Pope and his friars got scared and though there is a ghost in the room, which is why he started crossing himself.
2. Faustus tells the Pope to stop crossing himself because the sign of the cross has no effect on Faustus.
Faustus realizes that religion is a fraud, especially when he didn't see God or knows of his existence, whereas the Devil is next to him playing tricks on mortals and taking their souls. He isn't frightened or offended by those symbols - he just knows that they are future and have no effect whatsoever.
