Prison Confession. De Profundis. Wilde O.

Oscar Wilde - the famous Irish poet, playwright and writer. In 1895, he was convicted of “rough obscenity” and sentenced to two years in hard labor. “De Profundis” is a letter from prison to Lord Alfred Douglas, a close friend of Wilde, who played the main role in his conclusion. The text of the message is not only filled with anger and bitterness of disappointment, but also exposes the depth of the feeling that the poet was experiencing for Douglas. In addition, the letter reflects the result of Wilde rethinking his philosophy of pleasure and views on the role of suffering in human life.
