Oscar Wilde 
The Collected Newspaper Articles by Oscar Wilde [EPUB ebook] 

Oscar Wilde, the illustrious Irish playwright, poet, and author, was born on October 16, 1854, in Dublin, Ireland. Known for his barbed wit, opulent aestheticism, and a flair for the dramatic, Wilde became one of the most prominent personalities of late Victorian London. His contributions to literature include an assemblage of plays, essays, and the celebrated novel ‘The Picture of Dorian Gray’ (1890), which encapsulates his literary style of decadence, moral ambiguity, and hedonism. Scholarly reflections on Wilde’s work often highlight his exploration of the art for art’s sake philosophy and his cultivation of the dandy persona. Wilde’s command over the English language is further exemplified in ‘The Importance of Being Earnest’ (1895), which is deemed a paragon of high comedy. Apart from his published plays and fiction, Wilde was a prolific journalist, a facet of his career illuminated in ‘The Collected Newspaper Articles by Oscar Wilde’. This compilation provides insight into his lesser-known role as an intellectual commentator and adds depth to our understanding of his literary voice. Despite his tragic demise in 1900, after a much-publicized trial and subsequent imprisonment, Oscar Wilde’s legacy endures through his writing, which remains both a subject of academic intrigue and a treasured component of classic literature.
