A Note on the Prison-Scene in Goethe's Faust
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 02 December 2020
Extract
In the Göchhausen manuscript of Faust Margarethe concludes the vision of her own execution as follows: “Es zuckt in iedem Nacken die Schärfe die nach meinem zuckt!” . . . Motley's description of the execution of Egmont contains the words: “A moment of shuddering silence succeeded the stroke. The whole vast assembly seemed to have felt it in their own hearts.” The source of this statement was found, after some search, in Hooft's Neederlandsche Histoorien, Amsterdam, 1642.
