Dr Faustus Reading Journal: Act 2

In the start of Act 2 we see Faustus seem to have doubts in his plans. This straight away draws resemblance to Macbeth having doubts about his plans. However Faustus quickly throws away such notions'Despair in God, and trust in Belzebub' this make me wonder about Faustus's interpertation of God and whether he sees God as an all powerful being. When Mephistopheles appears the academic nature of Faustus shows with his questioning? The whole point of selling Faustus selling his soul is argubaly down to a curiosity of the unknown. When Faustus attempts to sign away his soul with blood it congeles and when he ventually does the words 'Homo Fuge' appears on his arm  which means 'Man, Fly!' This is a reference to the bible and means 'man fly' in latin. This is a obvious warning and is almost as if Faustus's own body is warning him about his grave decision.
