About this book

A life of Oscar Wilde is joined here to a survey of his writings. The first part follows the man, noting how he was long known for extravagant poses until he turned to the stage and won quick success. The later parts take his work in turn: the society comedies from Lady Windermere's Fan to The Importance of Being Earnest, the romantic plays including Salomé and Vera, the fairy stories, the poems, the fiction, his philosophy of beauty and, last, De Profundis. It appeared in London in 1907.
