Synopsis "Intentions"

Intentions is a groudbreaking work of criticism, in four parts, by the inimitable Oscar Wilde. The book is important; Oscar Wilde is a genius. Throughout each of the four parts, Wilde advocates for originality. For Wilde, all virtues are subservient to Art. The first part, "The Decay of Lying", consists of a dialogue between Cyril and Vivian that takes place in "the Libarary of a country house in Nottinghamshire." The dialogue begins with Cyril walking into the library and encouraging Vivian to go outside.
