Angebote / Angebote:

This is the first collection of critical essays that explores Oscar Wilde¿s interest in children¿s culture, whether in relation to his famous fairy stories, his life as a caring father to two small boys, his place as a defender of children¿s rights within the prison system, his fascination with youthful beauty, and his theological contemplation of what it means to be a child in the eyes of God. The collection also examines the ways in which Wilde¿s works¿not just his fairy stories¿have been adapted for young audiences.
