hubris in Dr Faustus
I believe that we do not speak about hubris in "Dr Faustus" as often as we should. I'm writing some kind of a term paper concerning this problem and I'd like to learn what do you think about this problem. Do you think that it was pride which made Faustus to sign the Deed of Gift or was it stupidity or sth else?
