The Picture of Dorian GrayIn the heart of Victorian London, the young and innocent Dorian Gray becomes captivated by his own portrait, painted by Basil Hallward. Under the influence of the cynical and hedonistic Lord Henry Wotton, Dorian makes a desperate wish: that the canvas age and bear the scars of his sins, while he retains his eternal youth. This macabre desire comes true, unleashing a dark spiral of vice, cruelty, and moral decay.

Oscar Wilde - Dandy, Schriftsteller, Star der Londoner Society und gefeierter Bühnenautor des Fin de siècle - nimmt mit Dorian Gray auf geradezu tragische Weise Stationen seines eigenen Lebens vorweg. Der schöne junge Dorian bezaubert den Maler Basil Hallward und erliegt seinerseits dem Einfluss des geistreichen und zynischen Adeligen, Lord Henry. Als Basil ein Porträt von Dorian anfertigt, wünscht er sich selbstverliebt, dass nicht er, sondern das Porträt altern soll. Sein Wunsch wird erfüllt. Dorian führt ein zügelloses Leben, stürzt Menschen in Abgründe und lebt selber alterslos und unbeschadet weiter - zumindest eine Zeit lang.

"The ones who are able to see the high meaning of beauty are cultural people. However, the chosen one is the one who sees only one thing in beauty: the Beauty itself" said one of the most famous English poets, writers, playwrights, a bright and inimitable Oscar Wilde (1854-1900). Oscar Wilde is the author of not only the world famous novel Portrait of Dorian Gray, but also of beautiful fairy tales combining the rich imagination of the writer and the ironic style of narration.

Die Erzählung Das Gespenst von Canterville (englisch The Canterville Ghost) des irischen Schriftstellers Oscar Wilde erschien erstmals im Jahr 1887 in der Londoner Zeitschrift The Court and Society Review – sie war das erste erzählerische Werk des Schriftstellers. Als Gesellschaftssatire beginnend, führt der Autor die Erzählung im Stil einer Burleske weiter, um sie romantisch-sentimental ausklingen zu lassen. Wilde selbst bezeichnete die Erzählung als "hylo-idealistische romantische Erzählung".

¿Qué es la amistad?, ¿hace falta entenderla para ser un buen amigo?

Murder comes in two familiar forms. Whether as a crime of passion with high emotions or a cold dispassionate plot to take life in order to gain in some way, the act strikes us all as somehow inhuman. Beneath us as civilised beings. But however we cloak our animal instincts the need to remove a human being and gain relief from abuse or gain from money, the term is just the same – MURDER. Robert Louis Stevenson, Arthur Conan Doyle, J M Barrie, W W Jacobs and many others bring their literary heft to bear in as calculating a way as any killer could.

The story is about a family who moves to a castle haunted by the ghost of a dead nobleman, who killed his wife and was starved to death by his wife's brothers. The home of the Canterville Ghost was the ancient Canterville Chase, which has all the accoutrements of a traditional haunted house. Descriptions of the wainscoting, the library panelled in black oak, and the armour in the hallway characterise the setting. Wilde mixes the macabre with comedy, juxtaposing devices from traditional English ghost stories such as creaking floorboards, clanking chains, and ancient prophecies.
