“Into the Exquisitely Obscure”: Aestheticism and Fragmentation in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray
Published 2022-04-01“… This paper aims at tracing a link between early literary works, namely via French Décadence, the notion of Art for Art’s Sake and the trope of doubleness, concepts that intertwine both independent self-assertion and the defeat of Man by Nature as these come to be represented in Oscar Wilde’s The Picture of Dorian Gray (1890). The dialogue between coeval aesthetical movements and the complexity of such an oeuvre unveils instances of undeniable influence; on the other hand, it also ascertains the uniqueness of Wilde’s provocative take on beauty and life. …”

The Picture of Dorian Gray : la passion du réel/la passion du semblant
Published 2006-12-01“…Slavoj Zizek has recently argued that the 20th century is characterized by the « passion for the real, » which is an exact inversion of the passion for semblances : beneath our modern passion for virtual reality there lurks a longing for « the experience of the real world of material decay ». The Picture of Dorian Gray was written in a period of transition between the 19th century and the 20th, and my point is that Wilde’s aestheticism must be re-appraised in the light of Zizek’s thought. …”

Seeking an immortality through love : the reading of Oscar Wilde’s the picture of Dorian Gray and Angela Carter‘s the passion of new eve as appropriations of platonic ideals
