1)The play directed by Mathew Dumpster for Globe theater ends with this scene (see the image of Lucifer)what does it signify?
Ans.In the last scene of the play directed by Mathew Dumpster for Global theatre it signifies that when Lucifer taking the soul of Dr Faustus he becomes more power ful.we can find large wings of Lucifer.It also signifies that Evil wings against to the God.In the end we see that Lucifer successful to take the soul of Dr.faustus it shows his Evil power,victory against the God.In the end Dr.faustus did not want to go to hell.He wants his soul save from devilish world that is hell.But his own decisions led him to fall in hell.
2)Is God present in the play?if yes ,where and how?If no why?
And. In the play directly God is not present but indirectly God is present.We can see God is present in the form of Good Angles,old man,good friends.God is present mentally of Dr Faustus.There characters are always tell him not give his soul to Mephistopheles.so with this character God is present and continually says that not give the soul to Mephistopheles's but in the end he fall down.
3) What reading and interpretation can be given this image(see the image of Daedalus and lcarus)with the reference to central theme of the play'Dr Faustus'?
Ans.In this scene this image of two Greek Mythological characters Daedalus and lcarus.In this Daedalus was the father of lcarus.
Lcarus wants to fly in the sty his father Daedalus makes waxen wings for his son.But he gives warns him don't fly near sun other wise his wings are melt.But lcarus ignores his father warning and he fall into the sea.so he is responsible for his own fall and do not listen the warning of his father.In the same way in the play good angel,old man,good friend continually warns to Dr.Faustus but he don't listen he also don't listen his unit voice and ignores all this things.And in the end when his death comes near he wanted to repent but it was too late.so in the end his tragic end.This way lcarus ignore all things and Dr.Faustus also ignores good things and leads towards his tragic end.
So this things are same in the image and in the play 'Dr Faustus'.
