Oscar Wilde
Oscar Wills Wilde was an Irish poet and playwright. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of the most popular playwrights in London in the early 1890s. Oscar Wilde is celebrated for his sharp wit, literary brilliance, and unique perspective on society. His works often blend humour with deep social commentary. Beyond “The Picture of Dorian Gray,” his plays like “The Importance of Being Earnest” and “An Ideal Husband” showcase his mastery of dialogue and comedic timing.
Wilde's life was also marked by his flamboyant personality and tumultuous relationships, culminating in his imprisonment for gross indecency due to his sexual orientation. This experience profoundly affected his later works and his worldview.
