Those assumptions insist on a fundamental separation of human and earth that devalues earth and enables our exploitative relation to it.

Oscar Wilde es recordado como una de las mentes más ingeniosas, gracias a su estilo y humor provocativo. En la década de 1890, fue uno de los dramaturgos más populares de Londres; sus obras maestras son The Importance of Being Earnest y la oscura y fantástica Picture of Dorian Gray. Sus escritos entrelazan temas de belleza, decadencia y duplicidad, lo que lo convirtió en un más que colorido agente provocador en la sociedad victoriana. Esto llevaría eventualmente a un juicio muy público después de ser acusado de sodomía.
