Oscar Wilde plan: Biography

In the early 90s, Oscar Wilde created a number of comedies for the theater stage, which were embodied on the stage of London. These plays include Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman Not Worth Noticing, An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest. In them, the playwright reveals himself as a master of witty dialogue. He is becoming more and more confident in dramaturgy using the technique of paradox.

Oscar Wilde was amorous from his youth. His first crushes were Florrie Balkum and actress Lilly Langtry. Already at a young age, the writer became a visitor to the capital's brothels, which at that time were popular among bohemians. But at the age of 27, Wilde meets Constance Lloyd, the daughter of an Irish lawyer, who, after a whirlwind three-year romance, becomes his wife. Soon, boys of the same age appear in the family of the London dandy - sons Cyril and Vivian.

Personal life

After a few years of marriage, alienation began between the spouses. It is quite possible that the cause of this was the writer’s untreated venereal disease. Oscar Wilde begins to live separately from his wife and children, and then changes his orientation. One of his first male partners is Robert Ross, who worked for a long time as the writer’s personal secretary and confidant. In 1891, an acquaintance took place that played a fatal role in the life of the writer. The young Marquis Alfred Douglas came to visit him and expressed his admiration for the writer’s just published novel. Soon a strong friendship began between the two aesthetes, which grew into passion.
