Throughout the 1880s Oscar Wilde devoted a great part of his creative energies to working as a professional journalist and he was prepared to write on a remarkable range of topics. Uniquely witty, intellectually acute, and socially aware Wilde's journalism not only displays the extensive reading and stylistic experimentation that prepared the way for his major works of the 1890s, it provides an essential record of the vibrant and rapidly changing journalistic culture in which he played a major part.
