Wilde Oscar Classic Tales of Oscar Wilde
Five stories collected together to show Oscar Wilde at his best; moving, witty and wise. And the Giant's heart melted as he looked out. 'How selfish I have been!' he said; ' ...I will knock down the wall, and my garden shall be the children's playground for ever and ever.' In The Happy Prince , a grand but lonely statue recruits a swallow to help him give to people in need; In The Nightingale and the Rose, a small bird makes a great sacrifice for love; The Selfish Giant is a beautiful story of the triumph of kindness; The Devoted Friend is a morality tale told to a pompous water rat; and The Remarkable Rocket charts the rise and fall of a particularly arrogant firework at a royal wedding. A fantastic addition to the Egmont Heritage range, this collection of Oscar Wilde stories represents the very best in children's literature. This book features the sumptuous artwork of Charles Robinson, renowned illustrator of fairy tales.

Oscar Wilde. Fairy Tales
Оскар Уайльд (1854 – 1900) — знаменитый ирландский поэт, драматург и писатель. Два сборника его сказок "“Счастливый принц” и другие сказки" (1888) и "Гранатовый домик" (1891) были тепло приняты читателями и критиками: Уайльда хвалили как за блестяще воссозданный волшебный дух народной сказки, так и за изысканный стиль повествования. При этом первый сборник отличается внешней простотой и создает ощущение рассказанной — а не написанной — истории. Во втором же сборнике сказки длиннее и сложнее, язык их более витиеватый, а сами они более взрослые — и мрачные.В сборник вошли все сказки Уайльда: "Счастливый принц", "Соловей и роза", "Великан-эгоист", "Преданный друг", "Замечательная ракета", "Молодой король", "День рождения Инфанты", "Рыбак и его душа" и "Звездный мальчик".Все рассказы опубликованы на английском языке без сокращений и адаптации.

Wilde Oscar The Decay of Lying and Other Essays
In 'The Decay of Lying' Oscar Wilde uses his decadent ideology in an attempt to reverse and therefore reject his audiences' 'normal' conceptualizations of nature, art and morality. Wilde's views of life and art are illustrated through the use of Platonic dialogue where the character Vivian takes on the persona of Wilde. Wilde's goal is to subvert the norm by reversing its values. Wilde suggests to us that society is wrong, not him. Calling on diverse examples - from Ancient Greek sculpture to contemporary paintings - Oscar Wilde's brilliant essay creates a witty, paradoxical world in which the only Art worth loving is that built on complete untruths.

Wilde Oscar Oscar Wilde. The Dover Reader
"An excellent collection of some of Oscar Wilde's key works. A useful and representative selection of his writings, ideal for those not already familiar with his trademark wit or his more serious work, but equally valuable for the Wilde devotee." — newbooks magazine Poet and playwright Oscar Wilde (1854–1900) wrote sparkling comedies that were the toast of London's West End in the 1890s. The master of the witty epigram who could resist anything except temptation, Wilde was imprisoned by an unjust society and died in obscurity, but his enduring works continue to enchant readers and audiences. The Irish author's only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, appears in this splendid showcase of his philosophy and wit. Additional selections include Wilde's ever-popular comedies The Importance of Being Earnest and An Ideal Husband; his essay on aestheticism, "The Decay of Lying: An Observation"; his deeply moving prison letter, "De Profundis"; and fairy tales from A House of Pomegranates and The Happy Prince.

Wilde Oscar Collected Poems of Oscar Wilde
Wilde, glamorous and notorius, more famous as a playwright or prisoner than as a poet, invites readers of his verse to meet an unknown and intimate figure. The poetry of his formative years includes the haunting elegy to his young sister and the grieving lyric at the death of his father. The religious drama of his romance with Rome is captured here, as well as its resolution in his renewed love of ancient Greece. He explores forbidden sexual desires, pays homage to the great theatre stars and poets of his day, observes cityscapes with impressionist intensity. His final masterpiece, The Ballad of Reading Gaol, tells the painful story of his own prison experience and calls for universal compassion. This edition of Wilde's verse presents the full range of his achievement as a poet. With an Introduction, Notes and Bibliography by Anne Varty, Royal Holloway, University of London.
