The judicial process to which Oscar Wilde was subjected in 1895 based on the bond he established with the young son of an English marquis, and in which he was found guilty of indecent conduct and sodomy, was brought together for the first time in a book. “The Trials of Oscar Wilde” is the title of the work published by Lumen, in which the trial that meant a fundamental change in the life of the author of “The Picture of Dorian Gray” is accessed for the first time, who scandalized the class media of that time when falling in love with Alfred “Bosie” Douglas, 16 years younger than him, reported the publisher, which is part of the Penguin Random House group. The work brings together the full transcribed text of the trial against Oscar Wilde and considers that the book is revealing, even today, with the culture of cancellation being the order of the day. The trial took place at the height of his career as an author and the successful premiere of his play “The Importance of Being Earnest,” in which he uses the double meaning of English vocabulary to make fun of society.
