The Life and Death of Doctor Faustus: Made into a Farce by Mr. Mountford is a book written by William Mountfort in 1886. The book is a comedic adaptation of the original play, The Tragical History of the Life and Death of Doctor Faustus, written by Christopher Marlowe in the late 16th century. The story follows the titular character, Doctor Faustus, who makes a deal with the devil in exchange for unlimited knowledge and power. However, as the deal unfolds, Faustus realizes the true cost of his actions and must face the consequences. Mountfort's adaptation adds a comedic twist to the story, turning it into a farce. The book explores themes of greed, morality, and the dangers of making deals with the devil. It is a satirical take on the original play and offers a unique perspective on the classic story.With The Humors Of Harlequin And Scaramouche, London, 1697.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
