Mediaeval learning includes the branches of which Faustus is dissatisfied. He
explicitly rejects more learning of logic, medicine, law, religion and seeks the
new branches to satisfy his ambition. as Renaissance values grow, the religious
faith and church power are tarnished. Faustus's reject of faith and sneer at the
pope indicate his turning away from medieval way of thinking. He resolves, in
full Renaissance spirit to accept no limits, traditions, or authorities in his quest
for knowledge, wealth and power.
