ABSTRACT The United States is in the throes of a geopolitical emergency. As our catastrophic situation continues to crystallize, the word soul and an amplification of the dark side have been making headlines. Johann Wolfgang von Goethe’s Faust is an epic poem that is about the loss of soul and its recovery; an analysis of this tragedy in relation to the current American political climate gives insight into what may be occurring archetypally as well as a way for the United States to recover its lost soul.
