¿Charmides and Other Poems¿ is a 1913 collection of poetry by Oscar Wilde. The poems include: ¿Charmides¿, ¿Requiescat¿, ¿San Miniatö, ¿Rome Unvisited¿, ¿Humanitad¿, ¿Louis Napoleon¿, ¿Endymion (For Music)¿, ¿Le Jardin¿, ¿La Mer¿, ¿Le Panneau¿, ¿Les Ballons¿, ¿Canzonet¿, ¿Le Jardin des Tuileries¿, ¿Pan Double Villanelle¿, ¿In the Forest¿, ¿Symphony in Yellow¿, etc. A fantastic collection of some of Wilde's best poetry not to be missed by fans and collectors of his seminal work. Oscar Fingal O'Flahertie Wills Wilde (1854¿1900) was an Irish poet and playwright who became one of the most popular in London during the 1880s and 1890s. Well-known for his sharp wit and extravagant attire, Wilde was a proponent of aestheticism and wrote in a variety of forms including poetry, fiction, and drama. He was famously imprisoned for homosexual acts from 1895 to 1897 and died at the age of 46, just three years after his release. Other notable works by this author include: ¿Picture of Dorian Gray¿ (1890), ¿Salome¿ (1891), and ¿The Importance of Being Earnest¿ (1895). Ragged Hand is proudly republishing this classic collection of poetry now in a new edition complete with a specially-commissioned new biography of the author.
Autorenporträt
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish poet and playwright who rose to global fame in the 1880s as a larger-than-life public persona with plays such as The Importance of Being Earnest, An Ideal Husband, and Lady Windermere's Fan. The author of countless brilliant epigrams that form part of our popular lexicon, he was sentenced to two years of hard labor in prison for having relations with men, which ruined his reputation and career. Upon his release he exiled himself in France, where he died penniless. Today Wilde is celebrated as a courageous crusader for free expression, gay love, and anyone oppressed by hypocritical conventions.
