Description
The full name- Oscar Fingal O’Flahertie Wills Wilde – was born in Dublin in the year 1854. The famous Irish ear surgeon, Sir William Wilde was his father and his mother was the poetess, Jane Francisca Speranza Elgee. He was the second child of his parents. His schooling was from Potara Royal School in Enniskillen and later at Trinity Collage, Dublin and Magdalen College, Oxford. In 1884, he married to Constance Lloyd, The daughter of an Irish barrister. All his major works appeared during the next ten years. Oscar Wild died in 1900.
Oscar Wilde’s works are suffused with his aestheticism, brilliant craftsmanship, legendary wit and, ultimately, his tragic muse. He wrote tender fairy stories for children employing all his grace, artistry and wit, of which the best known is The Happy Prince. Counterpoints to this were his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, which shocked and outraged many readers of his day, and his stories for adults which exhibited his fascination with the relations between serene art and decadent life.
