He attended the Portora Royal School, Enniskillen, from 1864 to 1871. In 1874, he graduated from Trinity College, Dublin.Wilde’s first play, Vera: or the Nihilists, did not meet much success. He refined his ideas about art, its purpose and supremacy, and incorporated themes of decadence, duplicity, and beauty into his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). Continuing his interest in theatre he wrote Salome, a play in one act, in 1891.Wilde became one of the most successful playwrights of the late Victorian London after producing four comedies—Lady Windermere’s Fan, A Woman of No Importance, An Ideal Husband, and The Importance of Being Earnest. First performed in 1895 in collaboration with George Alexander at St. James’s Theater, London, The Importance of Being Earnest was considered Wilde’s masterpiece and continues to remain his most popular play. The Ballad of Reading Gaol, published in 1898, was his last work. Wilde died in 1900 at the age of 46, in Paris.","brand":"Fingerprint","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48759464001765,"sku":"NP9789389931006","price":5.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9789389931006.jpg?v=1775598647","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/products\/happy-prince-and-other-tales-the-isbn-9789389931006","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
