Dr Faustus

Acts 3 Scene 1 - 2

1. Wagner gives an account of Faustus's travels to view the universe and informs us that he has arrived in Rome. Faustus discusses the sights he has seen with Mephistopheles. Why doesn't he travel outside of Europe? Because Europe is the center of everything. There is no world outside of Europe.'To know the secrets of astronomy' - Marlow doesn't even know the word for it and this may also be why he doesn't talk about anything else. The supernatural is involved 'Drawn by the strength of yoky dragons' necks'. 
2. Mephistopheles confirms that, in accordance with Faustus' request, they are now in the Vatican where they can witness - and mischievously participate in - the celebration of 'holy peter's feast'.
3. At the Banquet, Faustus, who is invisible , disrupts the feast by snatching food and wine from the pope and his guests. This is a comedy scene because of how the pope is being mocked by Faustus. Lorraine thinks that Faustus is a soul that's not ready for heaven, 'purgatory'.
4. Believing that they are being haunted by a ghost from purgatory, the Friars ineffectually attempt an exorcism/excommunication and flee when Faustus and Mephistopheles throw fireworks among them.
5. Robin, accompanied by Rafe, has stolen a cup from a tavern and attempts to outwit the furious vinter by sleight of hand and then by conjuring.
6. Robin's incantations in raising Mephistopheles, who angrily turns Robin into an Ape and Rafe into a dog.
7.
