Story0
A nightingale overhears a student complaining that the professor's daughter will not dance with him, as he is unable to give her a red rose; a lizard, a butterfly and a daisy laugh at the student for doing so. The nightingale visits all the rose-trees in the garden, and one of the roses tells her there is a way to produce a red rose, but only if the nightingale is prepared to sing the sweetest song for the rose all night with her heart pressing into a thorn, sacrificing her life.

Story0
Wilde's first collection of verse, published in 1881, contains many poems which had already been published individually. Among the 61 poems can be found four major works, "The Garden of Eros", "The Burden of Itys", "Charmides", and "Humanitad". Although the initial critical reaction was not particularly enthusiastic, Wilde's poetry aroused enough attention for him to become the object of ridicule in the Gilbert and Sullivan comic opera Patience, in which he is characterized as the "fleshly poet", Reginald Bunthorne.

Story0
En 1891, Oscar Wilde aide un jeune étudiant d'Oxford, Lord Alfred Douglas (Bosie), fils du Marquis De Queensberry et entame une relation avec lui. Le père, membre de la chambre des Lords, a besoin de voir son nom réapparaître dans les journaux avec un rôle entièrement nouveau : Celui du père affectueux défenseur de la pureté et de la moralité, protégeant son fils des assauts de l'artiste pervers et dépravé. La loi anglaise, à cette époque, ne badinant pas avec l'homosexualité, il est condamné à deux ans de travaux forcés.

Story0
Oscar Wilde was sentenced to two years in prison, part of which he spent in Reading Gaol. About five months after Wilde arrived at Reading Gaol, Charles Thomas Wooldridge, a trooper in the Royal Horse Guards, was brought to Reading to await his trial for murdering his common-law wife (and promptly presenting himself and confessing to a policeman) on 29 March 1896; on 17 June, Wooldridge was sentenced to death and returned to Reading for his execution, which took place on Tuesday, 7 July 1896 - the first hanging at Reading in 18 years. The poem is dedicated to him.
