The interrelationship between literature and cinema is usually reduced merely to the connection between a book and its screen adaptation. Thus, a great many of the viewers of Stanley Kubrick’s The Shining would analyze its relation and fidelity to Stephen King’s novel. The reasoning presented in this essay stands in opposition to this tendency because various minor details of a movie may refer to other literary texts as well. In addition, a link to other works of art is often more meaningful and relevant than a reference to a book which was the basis of an adaptation. Therefore, it can be demonstrated that Kubrick alludes to Johann Wolfgang’s Faust in a variety of ways in The Shining. The comparison of the movie’s protagonist with the eponymous character of the play makes it easier to comprehend the cinematic character’s complex personality. This explains the content of The Shining even though the plot is based upon another literary text.

This article describes the origin of English Faustiana and the way the Faustian motif has been modified and interpreted over time. English Faustiana is viewed as an array of literary works dating from the late 16th to early 21st century concerned with the main Faustus subject – man’s pact with the devil. The selected works are associated with the apprehension of sin as the main implication of the interpretative features: thirst for unlimited knowledge, aspiration for godly power, conjuration and the selling of one’s soul.
