- More about In Praise of Disobedience: The Soul of Man Under Socialism and Other Writings
In Praise of Disobedience is a collection of works from Oscar Wilde's most creative year, including his political philosophy, essay collection, and children's stories. It explores why Wilde remains a provocative and radical figure, with stimulating annotations by Neil Bartlett.
Format: Paperback / softback
Length: 336 pages
Publication date: 28 November 2020
Publisher: Verso Books
In a captivating exploration, playwright, novelist, and Wilde scholar Neil Bartlett delves into the pivotal year when Oscar Wilde published the majority of his renowned prose, marking his artistic maturity. By the end of 1891, Wilde had already penned his first phenomenally successful play and encountered the young man who would capture his heart, initiating a love affair that would lead to imprisonment and public disgrace.
Bartlett's witty introduction sheds light on why this period in Wilde's life holds such significance in his genius and why he continues to be a provocative and radical figure even today. Within this collection, readers will find the entirety of Wilde's foray into political philosophy, The Soul of Man Under Socialism; the complete essay collection Intentions; selections from The Portrait of Dorian Gray, including its paradoxical and scandalous preface; and some of Wilde's finest works for children. Accompanied by insightful and enlightening annotations, each selection offers a delightful experience for fans of Oscar Wilde, restoring and revitalizing his often misunderstood legacy.
