Detailed explanation-1: -In Doctor Faustus, higher knowledge should only be obtained by someone if he is wise and capable of using it for the betterment of himself and society. Higher knowledge should be forbidden to those who are foolish and selfish.
Detailed explanation-2: -He desires limitless knowledge largely because of the massive riches and power that come with it. And indeed whatever power Faustus possesses with his magic is due entirely to his knowledge of certain magic incantations.
Detailed explanation-3: -Doctor Faustus, a well-respected German scholar, grows dissatisfied with the limits of traditional forms of knowledge-logic, medicine, law, and religion-and decides that he wants to learn to practice magic.
Detailed explanation-4: -Faustus pursues magic because he wants to live a life unconstrained by laws, a life in which his will is unencumbered and uninhibited. He wants to transcend the laws of physics, to kill with impunity, to glut himself on pleasures, and to dominate other people.
