НАЙТИ ЕЩЕHere is Oscar Wilde's most brilliant tour de force, a witty and buoyant comedy of manners that has delighted millions in countless productions since its first performance in London's St. James' Theatre on February 14, 1895. The Importance of Being Earnest is celebrated not only for the lighthearted ingenuity of its plot, but for its inspired dialogue, rich with scintillating epigrams still savored by all who enjoy artful conversation. From the play's effervescent beginnings in Algernon Moncrieff's London flat to its hilarious denouement in the drawing room of Jack Worthing's country manor in Hertfordshire, this comic masterpiece keeps audiences breathlessly anticipating a new bon mot or a fresh twist of plot moment to moment. This finely produced volume is an unabridged, unaltered reprinting of an authoritative early British edition. Unabridged Dover (1990) republication of the standard text (play first published by Leonard Smithers & Co., London, 1899). Publisher's Note.

НАЙТИ ЕЩЕОскар Уайльд - английский писатель, досконально изучивший все подводные камни семейной жизни. В трех самых известных своих пьесах ("Веер леди Уиндермир", "Как важно быть серьезным", "Идеальный муж") он предоставляет читателю право самому ответить на животрепещущие вопросы: следует ли безоговорочно доверять своей второй половине? Надо ли идеализировать спутника жизни или лучше принимать его со всеми недостатками? Прощать за ошибки, совершенные в прошлом, или безжалостно осуждать, сокрушая то, что строилось годами? Красивый язык, парадоксальные, но и логичные высказывания, мягкий юмор, запутанность положений заставят читателя вновь и вновь обращаться к этой книге, а комментарии и словарик помогут ему в полной мере оценить прелесть и афористичность языка. В книге приводится неадаптированный текст на языке оригинала с комментариями и словарем.

НАЙТИ ЕЩЕBetween 1892 and 1895, Oscar Wilde’s drawing-room comedies Lady Windermere’s Fan, A Woman of No Importance, An Ideal Husband and The Importance of Being Earnest made his name as a playwright who fearlessly mocked the hypocrisy and snobbery of Victorian society and took gleeful delight in appearing to trivialize its most sacred institutions. With its premiere on Valentine’s Day 1895, The Importance of Being Earnest – a hilarious comedy of mistaken identities and coruscating language – was a phenomenal success, but its run was cut short prematurely by Wilde’s court case and subsequent incarceration, and the play was not published until 1899, after Wilde had been released from prison. Also including the powerful Salome, originally written in French and banned by the British censor, this collection displays Wilde at his provocative and witty best, and demonstrates why he was a playwright who delighted audiences and infuriated critics in equal measure.

НАЙТИ ЕЩЕOscar Wilde was already one of the best-known literary figures in Britain when he was persuaded to turn his extraordinary talents to the theatre. Between 1891 and 1895 he produced a sequence of distinctive plays which spearheaded the dramatic renaissance of the 1890s and retain their power today. This collection offers newly edited texts of Lady Windermere s Fan, A Woman of No Importance, Salome, An Ideal Husband, and, arguably the greatest farcical comedy in English, The Importance of Being Earnest.
