Is Goethe’s *Faust* merely a patchwork, a mosaic of content cobbled together from other works that served as a source of inspiration for Goethe? This lecture aims to provide an insight into Goethe’s work on his magnum opus and, using selected passages, to demonstrate how he utilised the knowledge available to him at the time for *Faust*.
Philipp Restetzki was co-editor of the edition *Entstehung von Goethes Werken in Dokumenten* and has devoted himself intensively to the references in Goethe’s *Faust*.
