Оскар Уайльд (1854-1900) - британский драматург, писатель и поэт. Он с 12 лет носил цилиндр и умел очаровать любого собеседника. Современники вспоминали, что его разговоры были так же полны остроумных афоризмов, как и его пьесы. И стенограммы этих разговоров не уступили бы драматическим произведениям или сказкам Оскара Уайльда. Сам он говорил, что для него писать пьесы - не больший труд, чем разговаривать. На каждую из своих самых знаменитых комедий Уайльд тратил по две недели. "Идеальный муж" - одна из самых известных пьес Уайльда. Комментарии и небольшой словарик помогут в полной мере оценить красоту и афористичность языка, парадоксальность и вместе с тем логичность высказываний и мягкий юмор великого эстета.

"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 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.

An Ideal Husband is an 1895 comedic stage play by Oscar Wilde which revolves around blackmail and political corruption, and touches on the themes of public and private honour. The action is set in London, in "the present", and takes place over the course of twenty four hours. The Importance of Being Earnest, A Trivial Comedy for Serious People is a play by Oscar Wilde. It premiered on 14 February 1895 at the St. James's Theatre in London.
