Abstract in English and German.

Many philologists consider Faust to be an egomaniac and illusionist who, at the end of his life, fails with his new land project. This study shows quite to the contrary and by means of a geographical interpretation how Faust evolves from the initial man of letters into the successful entrepreneur. Through expert regional planning he becomes the originator of a thriving cultural landscape.
