Der schlagfertig humorvolle Freimaurer entwickelt sich zu einem berühmt berüchtigten Skandalautor, genießt seinen schlechten Ruf als Dandy und pflegt einen extravaganten Auftritt in samtenen Kniebundhosen mit Seidenstrümpfen. Er wird gehässig karikiert und zugleich für seine Bonmots gefeiert. 30-jährig heiratet der inzwischen weltberühmte Dichter die wohlhabende und bildschöne Kinderautorin Constance Mary Loyd, mit der er zwei Söhne haben wird. 1895 zettelt der Vater seines langjährigen Liebhabers Lord Alfred Douglas einen Prozess wegen der damals schwer bestraften Homosexualität gegen ihn an, der ihn für zwei Jahre ins Zuchthaus bringt. Die menschenverachtenden Haftbedingungen in Isolation und Dunkelheit mit harter Zwangsarbeit ruinieren seine Gesundheit. Nach seiner Entlassung lebt er verarmt, vereinsamt und krank in Paris. Am 30. November 1900 stirbt mit Oscar Wilde ein charismatischer Repräsentant der Dekadenz und eine der schillerndsten Figuren des viktorianischen Englands. 1917 schreibt Alfred Kerr über Oscar Wilde »Seine langsame Hinrichtung bleibt der letzte Akt des Mittelalters.«

The play opens with a group of English aristocrats gathering at the country house of Lady Hunstanton. Among the guests are Lord Illingworth, a charming but morally questionable man, and Mrs. Arbuthnot, a woman with a secret past. Also present are young Gerald Arbuthnot, Mrs. Arbuthnot's son, and Hester Worsley, a young American woman.The central conflict of the play revolves around Mrs. Arbuthnot's desire to protect her son from the influence of Lord Illingworth, who offers Gerald a position as his secretary. Mrs. Arbuthnot's concern stems from her own painful past, as Lord Illingworth is the father of her illegitimate child, Gerald.Throughout the play, Wilde explores themes of social hypocrisy, the consequences of past mistakes, and the importance of moral integrity. The characters engage in witty and satirical conversations, often concealing their true thoughts and feelings beneath a veneer of politeness.As the play unfolds, secrets are revealed, and characters are forced to confront their own moral choices. Mrs. Arbuthnot's steadfast determination to protect her son's future becomes a central focus, leading to a dramatic confrontation with Lord Illingworth.

"A Critic in Pall Mall" is not a work by Oscar Wilde. Instead, it is a collection of essays and reviews written by Oscar Wilde that was published in 1885 under the title "The Critic As Artist." This collection includes two dialogues: "The Critic As Artist: With Some Remarks on the Importance of Doing Nothing" and "The Decay of Lying: An Observation."In "The Critic As Artist," Wilde explores the role of the critic and the artist in society, arguing that the critic plays an essential role in shaping public opinion about art. He discusses the importance of individualism, aesthetics, and the idea that the critic's subjective response to art is as valuable as objective analysis.In "The Decay of Lying," Wilde satirically examines the relationship between art and reality. He argues that life imitates art far more than art imitates life, advocating for the value of artistic expression and imagination over strict adherence to reality.Both essays are known for their wit, humor, and paradoxical statements, which are characteristic of Wilde's writing style. These essays are considered significant contributions to the fields of literary criticism and aesthetics.

IEra l'ultimo ricevimento di lady Windermere, alla vigilia della primavera. Bentink House, più dell'usato, brulicava di visitatori. Sei membri del ministero eran venuti direttamente dopo l'udienza dello speaker, con tutti gli ordini e le decorazioni. Le belle donne indossavano i più eleganti costumi e, in fondo alla sala dei quadri, la principessa Sofia di Carlsrühe, grossa dama del tipo tartaro, con occhietti neri e stupendi smeraldi, parlava con voce stridente un pessimo francese e rideva senza ritegno di quanto le si dicesse.
