Contenu du cours

Oscar Wilde’s The Importance of Being Earnest, A Trivial Comedy for Serious People opened to great acclaim in 1895. Less than two months later, Wilde was arrested for “gross indecency” and his name removed from the playbill; the play would soon be closed, and its playwright imprisoned. However, both play and author would prove highly influential. This course will examine Wilde’s masterpiece alongside a variety of works, most notably the short stories of Edwardian author HH Munro, better known as Saki, and the farcical play Loot by 1960’s writer Joe Orton.
