This volume of poems ranges from some of his earliest works to newer ones, including "E Tenebris" and possibly the most popular of his poems, "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" This range of poems depicts Wilde's growth as an artist and a person, as seen in his choice of subjects- from focusing on sensation and pleasure to moral complexity, from sorrow to death. Wilde's poetry included sonnets, ballads and other forms. "The Ballad of Reading Gaol" was the last work published before his death in 1900. It describes the death of a fellow inmate, hanged for murdering his wife, and his serenity in the face of his impending hanging. It goes on to talk about the terrors conditions, and life at the Reading Gaol. The Picture of Dorian Gray As Dorian Gray descends into a life of crime and excessive sensuality. his body retains perfect youth and vigour. while his recently painted portrait develops into a terrible record of evil, which he must keep hidden. The Picture of Dorian Gray, authored by Oscar Wilde, is a powerful moral allegory, a masterpiece of Gothic literature, and the best representation of the Faustian bargain ever written. It is one of Wilde's most significant works and a pioneering example of its kind. This captivating tale of terror and suspense has been incredibly popular for more than a century De Profundis Edited and published posthumously, "De Profundis" is a letter by Oscar Wilde to his friend and former student, Lord Douglas. Written in 1897, while incarcerated at the Reading Gaol for 'gross indecency", the letter recounts Wilde's relationship with his friend and his imprisonment, lamentations of the infamy and disgrace. He goes on to accept his role in his fall from grace and starts delving into societal problems, quoting many prominent philosophical thinkers. Wilde recounts his spiritual growth in the latter part of the letter and refers to Christ as a symbol of kindness. By the end of it, we see a Wilde who has both accepted his condition, yet firmly believes he was prosecuted unjustly and is seeking to find humility and fulfilment in his ordeal. De Profundis was published by Wilde's literary agent, Robert Ross, five years after his death The Happy Prince and Other Tales First published in 1888, The Happy Prince and Other Tales is an anthology of five magical, yet haunting short stories by Oscar Wilde. The stories, written in the style of fairy tales, teach the reader-young and old- about love, friendship, selfishness, and sacrifice, even if at the expense of one's life.

A Treasury of Works by Oscar Wilde 4 Books Collection Box Set - Ages 14+ - Hardback Wilco Books
Experience Wilde’s sharp wit, dark comedies, and beautifully haunting stories in this four-book collection. Titles in this Set: 1. The Picture of Dorian Gray 2. The Importance of Being Earnest and Other Plays 3. The Ballad of Reading Gaol and Other Poems 4. The Happy Prince and Other Tales Description: The Picture of Dorian Gray Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray tells the cautionary tale of a beautiful young man who remains youthful while his portrait withers with his sins. Exploring themes of hedonism, vanity, and the duplicity of Victorian society, the novel is a lush, philosophical descent into moral decay. The Importance of Being Earnest and Other Plays The Importance of Being Earnest is a glorious comedy of mistaken identity, which ridicules codes of propriety and etiquette. Snobbery and hypocrisy are also laid bare in Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman of No Importance and An Ideal Husband, while in Salomé and A Florentine Tragedy, Wilde uses historical settings to explore the complex relationship between sex and power. The range of these plays displays Wilde's delight in artifice, masks and disguises, and reveals the pretensions of the social world in which he himself played such a dazzling and precarious part. The Ballad of Reading Gaol and Other Poems Thispoem - originally published anonymously, written after Wilde's two year's hard labour in Reading prison - is the tale of a man who has been sentenced to hang for the murder of the woman he loved. The Ballad of Reading Gaol follows the inmate through his final three weeks, as he stares at the sky and silently drinks his beer ration. Heart-wrenching and eye-opening, the ballad also expresses perfectly Wilde's belief that humanity is made up only of offenders, each of us deserving a greater charity for the severity of our crimes. The Happy Prince and Other Tales High above the city, on a tall column, stood the statue of the Happy Prince. He was gilded all over with thin leaves of fine gold, for eyes he had two bright sapphires, and a large red ruby glowed on his sword-hilt. The Happy Prince and Other Tales is a collection of five stories: 'The Happy Prince', 'The Nightingale and the Rose', 'The Selfish Giant', 'The Devoted Friend', and 'The Remarkable Rocket'. The Happy Prince stars the statue of the Prince, who persuades a swallow to deliver his gold and jewels to the poor and needy in his city.
