OSCAR WILDE: THE PICTURE OF DORIAN GRAY

Details: There is no wittier or more insolent upholder of the ‘art for art’s sake’ theory than Wilde,” says Arthur Compton Rickett. Wilde was a versatile genius who dabbled in every literary genre—short stories, fairy tales, essays, drama and novel—The Picture of Dorian Gray. Here he skilfully draws parallels with the story of the protagonist and the Faust legend. In this critical study of wilde’s only novel, an attempt has been made to explore and analyse the text as well as to provide numerous critical and textual problems with answers with a view to making it easily accessible to students in our universities. Shakti Batra has been Vice-principal, Dyal Singh College (University of Delhi), has also taught at the Kabul University and the University of Kyrgyzstan, Bishkek.
