| Description: |
Volume V of the Oxford English Texts Complete Works of Oscar Wilde, is the first volume of plays, bringing together The Duchess of Padua, privately published in 1883 and left unpublished until now; Wilde's Salome, written and published in French in 1893; and its first English translation, by Lord Alfred Douglas, which was published in 1894 . |
| Synopsis: |
This is the first collection of plays in the Complete Works of Oscar Wilde series edited by Ian Small. It contains full-dress critical editions, at the high editorial standard of the familiar Oxford English Texts series, encompassing all surviving manuscript material and all other relevant documents, of three of Wilde's plays: The Duchess of Padua, the original French Salome, and the first English translation, by Lord Alfred Douglas. The edition contains comprehensive introductions and editorial introductions, as well as extensive annotations. The Duchess of Padua is one of two early plays by Wilde (the other being Vera; or, The Nihilists) that signify his youthful interest in making his mark on the contemporary theatre. They are imperfect works, but they show the real talent and definite promise that would be fulfilled, in the early 1890s, first with Lady Windermere's Fan (completed 1891, produced 1892) and then, almost simultaneously, with the next play in this volu |
