More about the book
Focusing on the diverse literary influences on Oscar Wilde, this book explores the range of texts he engaged with from the start of his career to "Dorian Gray." The author contends that existing analyses of the novel's aesthetic and decadent contexts overlook the broader cultural movements that shaped Wilde's distinctive prose. By highlighting this transnational network of literary forms, the book advocates for a more nuanced interpretation of Wilde's work and its inspirations.
