Both Satan in Paradise Lost and Doctor Faustus in Doctor Faustus are ambitious and rebellious characters who seek power and knowledge beyond their limits. However, while Satan is portrayed as a tragic figure who falls from grace due to his pride and defiance towards God, Doctor Faustus is depicted as a morally flawed character who makes a pact with the devil out of his own selfish desires. In the end, both characters face consequences for their actions, with Satan being condemned to eternal damnation and Faustus meeting a tragic end.
