Why is their a scene between Robin and wagner?
1) To make a comparison between Faustus and Robin highlighting the weakness in Faustus and how Robin understans what is important.
2) Marlow could be making a general point about the difference between people and that Faustus isn't a representation of everyone.
3) The fact that it is a scene with humour can almost be seen as dark humour, as Faustus is tempted in the same way but however gives in. The audience laugh at this scene but infact they are unaware but infact laughing at the critical Faustus situation
4) The light hearted feel makes the rest of the book seem more gloomy.
