With an Introduction and Notes by Anne Varty, Royal Holloway, University
of London. De Profundis is Wilde's eloquent and bitter reproach from
prison to his lover, Lord Alfred Douglas. He contrasts his behaviour
with that of his close friend Robert Ross who became Wilde's literary
executor.
The Ballad of Reading Gaol is a deeply moving and
characteristically generous poem on the horrors of prison life, which
was published anonymously in 1898. This collection also includes the
essay The Soul of Man under Socialism and two of his Platonic dialogues,
The Decay of Lying and The Critic as Artist.
