Oscar Wilde

Oscar Wilde, born in 1854, was an Irish playwright, poet, and author, renowned for his wit, style, and sharp social commentary. Wilde’s works often explore themes of beauty, decadence, and the contradictions within society. His most famous plays, such as The Importance of Being Earnest, An Ideal Husband, and Lady Windermere’s Fan, are celebrated for their clever dialogue, satirical humour, and critiques of Victorian society's morals and conventions. Wilde’s novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, is a dark exploration of vanity, excess, and the pursuit of pleasure in the Gothic fiction canon. Known for his epigrams and brilliant one-liners, Wilde’s writing reflects his belief in the power of art and beauty as well as his disdain for the rigid social norms of his time. Wilde remains a literary icon whose work continues to captivate and provoke discussion for its wit, wisdom, and biting social critique.
