Bøker av Lawrence (Professor of English Danson

Wilde's Intentions is the first extended study of Oscar Wilde in his role of `the critic as artist'. Lawrence Danson shows how Wilde's essays and dialogues sought to create a new ideal of English culture, elevating what he called `lies' above history and ending the sway of `nature' over liberated human desire.

'Oxford Shakespeare Topics' (General Editors Peter Holland and Stanley Wells) provide students, teachers, and interested readers with short books on important aspects of Shakespeare criticism and scholarship, including some general anthologies relating to Shakespeare.
