Prohlášení Prohlašuji, že jsem tuto bakalářskou práci vypracoval samostatně, že jsem řádně citoval všechny použité prameny a literaturu a že práce nebyla využita v rámci jiného vysokoškolského studia či k získání jiného či stejného titulu. V Praze dne 15. 8. 2012 …....................................... Alex Lorenzů Souhlasím se zapůjčením bakalářské práce ke studijním účelům. Abstract The thesis deals with the cultural and literary influences that can be traced in the works of Oscar Wilde. Its aim is to map out and elucidate some of the important motifs of the author's work and aesthetics in their own context as well as in the wider cultural-historical one. The methods used will be comparison of relevant materials, analysis of certain expressions typical of the author with their connotations, explaining the intertextual allusions in Wilde's work, and historical sources. The requisite attention will also be paid to Wilde as a representative of a subversive element of Victorian society and how this relates to his sexuality; that is to say, exploring the issue of the tabooing of non-heterosexuality, which may have been a decisive factor in Wilde's criticism of the conventions of his era and to his search of positive role-models in the ancient tradition both for his art and for his personal philosophy.

  • Christabel Lady Aberconway
    CHRISTABEL LADY ABERCONWAY She was born into a distinguished family of Irish Macnaghtens in 1890. I was born into a family of Scottish/Australian McNaughtons fifty years later. It seemed unlikely we would ever meet. But we had some common interests and eventually did meet—in London in the Swinging Sixties. My mother, Lilian May Besant, and my father, Charles Dudley McNaughton, built a double-brick house in Burwood, eight miles from the center of Melbourne, Australia, and moved in when they married in December 1935. When my sister, Eril Margaret, was born on 8 April 1938, she occupied the second bedroom at the back of the house. After I arrived on 22 July 1940 a third bedroom was added by building a “sleep-out” of fibro-cement behind Eril’s room, punching a door through her brick wall and putting a second door from the sleep-out onto the back verandah. Our rooms were not large. Eril had to put up with traffic from inside the house to my room. The sleep-out became a refuge for some difficult-to-place furniture, including my mother’s large foot-operated Singer sewing machine, a large dark-stained secretaire that belonged to my father, and a large sailing-ship print. My father died of a brain tumor in 1944 and when my step-father joined us in 1946, his cedar chest of drawers landed in my room. I lived in this room through high school, college and a two-year master’s degree and never thought about redecorating. The brick wall between our two bedrooms was painted on my side once or twice, and the curtains on the narrow strip of windows to the south were replaced.

  • Perspectives on Fiction in the Nineteenth-Century Novel
    FROM THE PENS OF THE CONTRIVERS: PERSPECTIVES ON FICTION IN THE NINETEENTH-CENTURY NOVEL LAURA CAPPELLO BROMLING B.A.(Hons.), University of Alberta, 2000 A Thesis Submitted to the School of Graduate Studies of the University of Lethbridge in Partial Fulfilment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Arts Department of English University of Lethbridge LETHBRIDGE, ALBERTA. CANADA © Laura Cappello Bromling, 2003 Abstract This thesis investigates the way that moral and aesthetic concerns about the relationship between fiction and reality are manifested in the work of particular novelists writing at different periods in the nineteenth century. Chapter One examines an early- century subgenre of the novel that features deluded female readers who fail to differentiate between fantasy and reality, and who consequently attempt to live their lives according to foolish precepts learned from novels. The second chapter deals with the realist aesthetic of W. M. Thackeray, focusing on the techniques by which his fiction marks its own relationship both to less realistic fiction and to reality itself. The final chapter discusses Oscar Wilde's critical stance that art is meaningful and intellectually satisfying, while reality and realism are aesthetically worthless: it then goes on to explore how these ideas play out in his novel.

  • 1 Twilight of the Idylls: Wilde, Tennyson, and Fin-De-Siècle Anti
    Twilight of the Idylls: Wilde, Tennyson, and Fin-de-Siècle Anti-Idealism By Elizabeth Carolyn Miller Nowadays, with our modern mania for morality, every one has to pose as a paragon of purity, incorruptibility, and all the other seven deadly virtues – and what is the result? You all go over like ninepins – one after the other. -- Mrs. Cheveley in Oscar Wilde’s An Ideal Husband (1895) Morality is merely an interpretation of certain phenomena, more precisely a misinterpretation. – Friedrich Nietzsche, Twilight of the Idols (1889; pub. in English 1896) IN THE CLIMACTIC FINALE to the first act of Oscar Wilde’s 1895 play An Ideal Husband, Gertrude Chiltern convinces her husband, a Member of Parliament, not to support the construction of a boondoggle Argentinean canal. Gertrude, not her husband, is the ostensibly moral character here, since the canal’s only purpose is to create wealth for its stockholders, but the language she uses in this impassioned speech quotes Guinevere, the contrite fallen wife of Alfred Tennyson’s Idylls of the King. Near the end of the Idylls, recognizing that her infidelity has occasioned war, turmoil, and the end of Arthur’s reign, Guinevere laments: Ah my God, What might I not have made of thy fair world, Had I but loved thy highest creature here? It was my duty to have loved the highest: It surely was my profit had I known: It would have been my pleasure had I seen. We needs must love the highest when we see it (G 649-56)1 Repeating these words and ideas under drastically different circumstances, Lady Chiltern tells her husband in the finale to Wilde’s first act: “I don’t think you realise sufficiently, Robert, that you have brought into the political life of our time a nobler atmosphere, a finer attitude towards 1 life, a freer air of purer aims and higher ideals – I know it, and for that I love you, Robert.

Oscar Wilde was born in Dublin. An abridged version was set for speaking pianist by composer Frederic Rzewski. Contact had lapsed between Douglas and Wilde and the latter had suffered from his close supervision, physical labour, and emotional isolation. Wilde loses his charm and a portion of his literary brilliance with the passage of brutal time in prison. His love for Bosie Douglas is painted patiently, paragraph by paragraph. Wilde was granted official permission to have writing materials in early , but even then under strict control: he could write to his friends and his solicitor, but only one page at a time.

  • On the Rejection of Oscar Wilde's the Picture of Dorian Gray by W. H. Smith
    humanities Article On the Rejection of Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray by W. H. Smith Satoru Fukamachi Faculty of Humanities, Doho University, Nagoya 453-8540, Japan; [email protected] Received: 1 September 2020; Accepted: 26 October 2020; Published: 29 October 2020 Abstract: Wilde’s only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, is widely said to have been rejected by W. H. Smith, but there is no doubt that this did not happen. The letter sent to Wilde by the publisher strongly indicates that W. H. Smith contemplated removing the July issue of Lippincott’s Magazine, but does not go so far as to say that the bookstore did. This letter is the only evidence, however, that this is not absolute. The refusal to sell is mere speculation. The fact that none of Wilde’s contemporaries mentioned the incident of The Picture of Dorian Gray that supposedly happened, while the boycott of George Moore’s Esther Waters, which was much less topical than this one, was widely reported and discussed, provides further evidence that Wilde’s work was not rejected. Given that the censorship of literary works by private enterprises was still topical in the 1890s, it is unbelievable that the rejection of Wilde’s novel would not have been covered by any newspaper. It makes no sense, except to think that such a thing did not exist at all. It is also clear that this was not the case in the 1895 Wilde trial. Wilde’s lawyer argued that the piece was not a social evil because it was sold uninterruptedly, and the other side, which would have liked to take advantage of it in any way, never once touched on the boycott.

    Love, Law and Oscar Wilde by Jerry James At thy martyrdom the greedy and cruel Crowd to which thou speakest will assemble; All will come to see thee on thy cross, And not one will take pity on thee. — James Rennell Rodd, Inscription to Oscar Wilde in Songs in the South, 1880 Oscar Wilde When The Importance of Being Ernest There is no indication Wilde did not opened on Valentine’s Day, 1895, Oscar deeply care for Constance Lloyd when they Wilde was at the pinnacle of his success.
