About the author

Oscar Wilde

1854–1900 · Victorian

Oscar Wilde (1854–1900) was born in Dublin, studied at Trinity College and at Oxford, and became the most celebrated wit of late-Victorian London. The Happy Prince and Other Tales (1888), The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890–91), Lady Windermere’s Fan (1892), An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest (both 1895) made his reputation. In 1895 he was convicted of gross indecency and served two years’ hard labour; De Profundis and The Ballad of Reading Gaol came out of the experience. He died in Paris.
