Softcover. Condizione: Good. GLD. More than 120 years after Oscar Wilde submitted The Picture of Dorian Gray for publication in Lippincotts Monthly Magazine, the uncensored version of his novel appears here for the first time in a paperback edition. This volume restores all of the material removed by the novels first editor.Upon receipt of the typescript, Wildes editor panicked at what he saw. Contained within its pages was material he feared readers would find offensive-especially instances of graphic homosexual content. He proceeded to go through the typescript with his pencil, cleaning it up until he made it acceptable to the most fastidious taste. Wilde did not see these changes until his novel appeared in print. Wildes editors concern was well placed. Even in its redacted form, the novel caused public outcry. The British press condemned it as vulgar, unclean, poisonous, discreditable, and a sham. When Wilde later enlarged the novel for publication in book form, he responded to his critics by further toning down its immoral elements.Wilde famously said that The Picture of Dorian Gray contains much of me: Basil Hallward is what I think I am, Lord Henry what the world thinks me, and Dorian what I would like to be-in other ages, perhaps. Wildes comment suggests a backward glance to a Greek or Dorian Age, but also a forward-looking view to a more permissive time than his own repressive Victorian era. By implication, Wilde would have preferred we read today the uncensored version of his novel.

Taschenbuch. Condizione: Neu. Neuware - 'The Picture of Dorian Gray', Oscar Wilde's only novel, was first published on both sides of the Atlantic by the American periodical Lippincott's Monthly Review on 20th June 1890. Not only did this text provoke a heated debate in the British press in the same year, it also became notorious for its being quoted and examined in court in Wilde's three trials in the spring of 1895.As a story, the novel shows how a young man in a Faustian situation wishes for his portrait to age rather than himself. Steeped in sin, which, however, is alluded to rather than spelt out, Dorian Gray for Wilde's critics and enemies became an image of the author's own behaviour.Going back to the typescript of the novel, the editor has restored passages to the text that had been excised or censored by Wilde himself and the editorial committee in America. Danny Morrison has provided a preface placing Wilde in the Irish political context of his own day and beyond. 176 pp. Englisch.
