Hm... interesting. So basically the sum-up seems to be, hell is everywhere, and heaven is beyond your imagination. Which I think goes on to explain the bettering image of Faust over time - he's trying to reach for understanding of the universe, what is heaven, what is hell, while every immortal being he asks just prances around insisting that he's too dumb to get it even if they explained. It has the smack of Frankenstein about it, if you think hard on it, of man overreaching his boundaries and getting smacked down for sheer hubris. (Although Svankmajer, I think, went for the "power corrupts" angle quite admirably.)
