nach der Bestellung gedruckt Neuware -Oscar Wilde (1775-1817) was an Irish poet, novelist, dramatist, and bon vivant. In his time, he was as well known for his colorful life as for his writing. That life, however, was rather too colorful for the time. In 1895, Wilde was sentenced to two years' hard labor for homo- sexuality. Prison broke him emotionally and physically; he died three years after his release. 'The Picture of Dorian Gray' (1891) is Wilde's only novel. It contrasts hedonism with respec- tability using the Victorian belief that one's appearance was a reflection of one's soul. It was controversial when originally published- largely because of its homoerotic subtext-but is now considered one of the great classics of Gothic literature. This book is in the Deseret Alphabet, a phonetic alphabet for writing English developed in the mid-19th century at the University of Deseret (now the University of Utah). 212 pp. Englisch, Books.

The Picture of Dorian Gray is the only novel by Oscar Wilde, first published in 1890. Fearing the story was indecent, prior to publication the magazine's editor deleted roughly five hundred words without Wilde's knowledge. Despite that censorship, The Picture of Dorian Gray offended the moral sensibilities of British book reviewers, some of whom said that Oscar Wilde merited prosecution for violating the laws guarding public morality. Wilde aggressively defended his novel and art in correspondence with the British press, although he personally made excisions of some of the most controversial material. The longer and revised version presented here was first published in 1891, with an aphoristic preface--a defence of the artist's rights and of art for art's sake--based in part on his press defences of the novel the previous year. The content, style, and presentation of the preface made it famous in its own right, as a literary and artistic manifesto.
