Synopsis "Salome"

Inspired by symbolist poetry and the frequent appearance of Salome in contemporary art and literature, Oscar Wilde wrote SALOME in French during a Paris stay in 1891-92. The play's sexuality and religious needling-not to mention the final scene in which Salome embraces the decapitated head of a saint-drew censors' ire. No public presentation was given in England until 1931.from the Translator's Note

Oscar Wilde is considered one of the most prominent playwrights of late Victorian London. Additionally, he was a celebrity of the time due to his great and sharp wit. Today, he is remembered for his epigrams, his short stories, his plays, his only novel, The Picture of Dorian Gray, and the tragedy of his imprisonment, followed by his premature death.
