It examines appropriate patterns from the mentioned functional styles in A Woman of No Importance. It is a four-act- play. It is a society comedy. We have chosen the first act for analysis. The dialogues chosen from the first act are informal. Though numerous authors have written on the subject of “given” (or old) versus “new” information and topicality, it is hardly applied to drama texts.

Aestheticism was used as a tool by the dandy in his rebellious performances in London, manifesting the contradiction between the spiritual and the material, the aristocracy and the bourgeoisie, and art and nature.

This paper seeks to demonstrate the extent of Freemasonry's impact on Oscar Wilde's penmanship and how it optimally impacted his paradigm, symbolism, and issues of concern. This research looks at the oeuvre, which includes The Picture of Dorian Gray and The Importance of Being Earnest, in illustrating the presence of materialist freemasonry embracing virtue, dualism, and search for knowledge. Their involvement in Freemasonry provided Wilde with the philosophy that encloses his ideas about personal freedom, moral dilemma, and individualism while writing.

Towards the end of the 19th century, Wilde produced the three comedies that I will focus on in this essay. These plays, Lady Windermere’s Fan, A woman of No Importance and An Ideal Husband, are all comedies of manners: intelligent dramatic comedies satirising contemporary fashionable circles of society and its manners, as well as social expectations. This type of comedy is often represented by stereotypical characters, such as the fallen woman, the good woman and the young innocent maiden, all three of which I will investigate in this essay.

Abstract:
The preface to The Picture of Dorian Gray is often dismissed as merely an addendum to the novel intended to detract hostile readers and absolve the text itself of any accusations of immorality. When coupled with the narrative itself, however, the novel shows both the impossibility of producing the new through traditional notions of revolution, as well as the way in which the Deleuzian conception of judgment inhibits Dorian from ever viewing the portrait as insignificantly amoral, as not symbolic of his sins. Yet the preface, coupled with the various aesthetic objects in the text, is producti

In the Victorian age, “Angel in the house” was a perfect icon and was familiar to the women in the Victorian society. Nevertheless, Oscar Wilde, instead of portraying the Victorian stereotype of mother images that are tender, submissive and self-sacrificing in his works, revealed other dimensions of women that are brave and independent with his two fallen women characters.
