Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) was an Irish playwright, poet, and novelist known for his brilliant wit, flamboyant style, and sharp social commentary. A leading figure in the Aesthetic Movement, he is best remembered for his novel The Picture of Dorian Gray and his witty plays such as The Importance of Being Earnest and An Ideal Husband. Wilde's works often satirize Victorian society and explore themes of beauty, duplicity, and identity. Despite his literary success, he faced public scandal and imprisonment for his homosexuality. Wilde's legacy endures through his timeless writing and enduring influence on literature and popular culture.
