Autorenporträt
Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) fue un escritor, poeta y dramaturgo británico, famoso por su habitual ingenio y sarcasmo social. Es en Londres donde empieza a producir sus primeras obras de éxito, como su reconocida novela El retrato de Dorian Gray (1890) o, en teatro, El abanico de Lady Windermer (1892), Salomé (1894) -que fue censurada por retratar personajes bíblicos-, o La importancia de llamarse Ernesto (1895), divertida comedia que ha sido llevada al cine en diversas ocasiones. Entre los años 1887-1889 editó una revista femenina Woman's World.
