The Soul of Man Under Socialism
ByPublisher Description
First published in 1891, ‘The Soul of Man Under Socialism’ is an explicitly political essay by Oscar Wilde in which he advance on a libertarian socialist worldview and a review of charity. Wilde was an Irish poet and playwright. After writing in different forms throughout the 1880s, he became one of the most popular playwrights in London in the early 1890s.
It did not initiate a scandal, even though it is devoted to the scandal of man exploiting man at such length and in such a knowledgeable way that it is topical even today. Having seen this scandal with his own eyes in the United Kingdom and Ireland as well as in the United States and France, Wilde cultivated insights nowadays brought forward by thinkers and historians of globalization. It is proclaimed by his profound reflections on socialism and individualism in the context of Christianity.
