Audiokniha: Pohádky tohoto anglického básníka, dramatika a prozaika irského původu nejsou odvozeny z lidových pramenů, nýbrž jsou tvorbou výlučně literární. Vznikaly v poslední třetině devatenáctého století a projevuje se v nich výraznou měrou secesní zdobnost, ornamentálnost a příklon k symbolismu. Je v nich patrná i určitá míra dekadence, jíž byl autor literárním představitelem - projevuje se melancholií, střetem snového světa s realitou, tématem smysluplného utrpení ve jménu lásky. Nevítězí v nich vždycky dobro a ani zlo není pokaždé ve své skutečné podobě potrestáno. Wildovy pohádky však mají obrovskou sílu mravního přesvědčení o absolutních lidských hodnotách. Do pohádkových příběhů, které Oscar Wilde údajně napsal pro své syny, vložil celé své srdce a vypravěčský um i básnické nadání. Nahrávka je určena starším dětem i dospělým posluchačům.

Born to over achieving parents during the conservative and bourgeois Victorian period, in 1854, Oscar Fingal O’Flahertie Wills Wilde would become one of Ireland’s finest poets and playwrights. The moulding of the real Oscar Wilde was shaped by his formative years, education and experiences, but he would continue to evolve and change as a poet, aesthete, a playwright, political thinker, essayist, husband, father, lover and even while he was prisoner. He was a complex and sometimes contradictory man, and was in many ways, ahead of the times in which he lived in. His professional successes including The Picture of Dorian Gray, The Importance of Being Ernest and A Woman of No Importance, to name but a few, are some of the most quoted works in modern times. But it is his personal life and the Victorian scandal that he caused in 1895 that Wilde is most remembered for today. Just after his second son was born, Wilde started to explore his sexuality. This new personal liberation and happiness would lead to meeting Lord Alfred “Bosie” Douglas. At the height of his success, Wilde’s life and the lives of his wife and children changed forever after a libel suit that lead ... Unknown localization key: "more"

As explanations of the world, fairy stories tell us what science and philosophy cannot and need not. There are different ways of knowing' Jeanette Winterson

Oscar Wilde presents a libertarian socialist view of the economic disparities caused by capitalism, that lead to futile acts of charity instead of definitive solutions. Wilde encourages an overhaul of the structures that allow such inequalities to exist. The Soul of Man Under Socialism is an insightful look into Wilde’s personal and political beliefs. Within the essay he emphasizes individualism over group think, using Jesus Christ as a prime example. He also offers a detailed critique of capitalist societies that revel in charity, instead of eliminating its need. Poverty cannot be fought with kindness; it requires genuine compassion backed by policy. Wilde’s perspective was heavily influenced by the writings of Peter Kropotkin, a Russian anarchist and socialist. In The Soul of Man Under Socialism, Wilde invokes powerful ideas that call for accountability and drastic change. It’s a raw declaration of his contemporary anarchist views.With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Soul of Man Under Socialism is both modern and readable.

He wrote tender fairy stories for children employing all his grace, artistry and wit, of which the best-known is The Happy Prince.
