Oscar Wilde
Oscar Wilde, born in Dublin in 1854, was a literary luminary of the Victorian era, renowned for his wit, flamboyance, and profound insights into society. A master of epigrams, Wilde's sharp, often humorous observations on life and love have left an indelible mark on literature and popular culture. His most celebrated works include the philosophical novel "The Picture of Dorian Gray" and the comedic plays "Lady Windermere's Fan" and "The Importance of Being Earnest," which continue to be performed and enjoyed worldwide. Wilde's life was as dramatic as his writings, marked by both critical acclaim and personal scandal, culminating in his conviction for homosexual acts, which led to his imprisonment. Despite the controversies, Wilde's legacy endures, celebrated for his unique voice and unapologetic embrace of aestheticism.
