fWotD Episode 2760: The Importance of Being Earnest Welcome to Featured Wiki of the Day, your daily dose of knowledge from Wikipedia’s finest articles.The featured article for Sunday, 24 November 2024 is The Importance of Being Earnest.The Importance of Being Earnest, a Trivial Comedy for Serious People is a play by Oscar Wilde, the last of his four drawing-room plays, following Lady Windermere's Fan (1892), A Woman of No Importance (1893) and An Ideal Husband (1895). First performed on 14 February 1895 at the St James's Theatre in London, it is a farcical comedy depicting the tangled affairs of two young men about town who lead double lives to evade unwanted social obligations, both assuming the name Ernest while wooing the two young women of their affections. The play, celebrated for its wit and repartee, parodies contemporary dramatic norms, gently satirises late Victorian manners, and introduces – in addition to the two pairs of young lovers – the formidable Lady Bracknell, the fussy governess Miss Prism and the benign and scholarly Canon Chasuble. Contemporary reviews in Britain and overseas praised the play's humour, although some critics had reservations about its lack of social messages.The successful opening night marked the climax of Wilde's career but was followed within weeks by his downfall. The Marquess of Queensberry, whose son Lord Alfred Douglas was Wilde's lover, unsuccessfully schemed to throw a bouquet of rotten vegetables at the playwright at the end of the performance. This feud led to a series of legal trials from March to May 1895 which resulted in Wilde's conviction and imprisonment for homosexual acts. Despite the play's early success, Wilde's disgrace caused it to be closed in May after 86 performances. After his release from prison in 1897 he published the play from exile in Paris, but he wrote no more comic or dramatic works.From the early 20th century onwards the play has been revived frequently in English-speaking countries and elsewhere. After the first production, which featured George Alexander, Allan Aynesworth and Irene Vanbrugh among others, many actors have been associated with the play, including Mabel Terry-Lewis, John Gielgud, Edith Evans, Margaret Rutherford, Martin Jarvis, Nigel Havers and Judi Dench. The role of the redoubtable Lady Bracknell has sometimes been played by men. The Importance of Being Earnest has been adapted for radio from the 1920s onwards and for television since the 1930s, filmed for the cinema on three occasions (directed by Anthony Asquith in 1952, Kurt Baker in 1992 and Oliver Parker in 2002) and turned into operas and musicals.This recording reflects the Wikipedia text as of 00:30 UTC on Sunday, 24 November 2024.For the full current version of the article, see The Importance of Being Earnest on Wikipedia.This podcast uses content from Wikipedia under the Creative Commons Attribution-ShareAlike License.Visit our archives at wikioftheday.com and subscribe to stay updated on new episodes.Follow us on Mastodon at @wikioftheday@masto.ai.Also check out Curmudgeon's Corner, a current events podcast.Until next time, I'm long-form Patrick.

We explore the remarkable journey of Evan Alexander Smith, whose path from Ontario to Broadway—and beyond—has been marked by diverse experiences and significant milestones. Evan's passion for theatre ignited in his early years, catalyzed by a transformative production of "Oliver" and a pivotal audition opportunity presented by a friend for an arts high school. Evan reflects on his tenure with Disney Cruise Line, where he not only honed his craft but also experienced a "showmance" that blossomed into marriage, ultimately guiding him to the vibrant theatre scene of New York City. He discusses his role as an audition reader and how this experience helped him demystify the audition process, thereby alleviating his fears and enhancing his performance skills. Having shared the stage with luminaries such as Daniel Radcliffe, Jonathan Groff, and Lindsay Mendez in the production of "Merrily We Roll Along," Evan emphasizes the centrality of storytelling in his approach to acting. He delves into his current portrayal of George McFly in "Back to the Future: The Musical," a role he approaches with a blend of humor and depth, focusing on George's distinct mannerisms and psychological complexity. Evan concludes with practical advice for aspiring performers: prioritize authenticity and self-belief over concerns about others' perceptions. His insights offer valuable guidance for those navigating the competitive landscape of the performing arts. Evan Alexander Smith is an actor, singer, and voiceover artist hailing from Toronto. A Dora Award nominee and Gemini Award winner, he starred in the original Canadian production of “The Toxic Avenger” musical and spent two seasons at Canada's prestigious Shaw Festival in productions of “Ragtime”, “His Girl Friday”, “Guys & Dolls”, and “Lady Windermere's Fan”. His National Tour credits include “Dirty Dancing” and “The Play That Goes Wrong”. His Broadway credits include “Amazing Grace” the recent revival of “Merrily We Roll Along" and now, “Back to the Future: The Musical” where he is currently starring as George McFly.  Connect with Evan: Website: www.evanalexandersmith.com Instagram: @iamevansmith Connect with The Theatre Podcast: Support the podcast on Patreon: Patreon.com/TheTheatrePodcast YouTube: YouTube.com/TheTheatrePodcast Threads, Twitter & Instagram: @theatre_podcast TikTok: @thetheatrepodcast Facebook.com/OfficialTheatrePodcast TheTheatrePodcast.com My personal Instagram: @alanseales Learn more about your ad choices.

Man kan aldrig vara överklädd eller överutbildad sade Oscar Wilde som lade ner lika mycket möda på sina kläder som på sin kulturella bildning och blev en av tidernas första och största stilbildare. Lyssna på alla avsnitt i Sveriges Radio Play. Oscar Wildes stil har aldrig upphört att fascinera och inspirera. Men så var förstås denne irländske författare och dramatiker en hejare på personlig marknadsföring, väl medveten om hur iögonfallande kläder kan väcka uppmärksamhet och skapa en persona.Och det gjorde han så väl att han, ända sedan sin död år 1900, har fått mången ung man att bära sammetskavajer och mjuka skjortor med rosett i halsen i försök att framstå som känsliga konstnärssjälar med intressanta sexliv. Och nu är det dag igen, att döma av flera modemärken vars herrkollektioner för vintern 2024 är fyllda av siden, sammet och löst knutna scarves i halsen.Oscar Wilde var, förstås, känd för långt mer än bara sitt sätt att klä sig på. Hans romaner, som Dorian Grays porträtt och teaterpjäser som Lady Windermere's fan och The Importance of Being Earnest är klassiker som fortfarande läses och spelas. Och många av hans aforismer är lika sanna och salta idag som när han skrev dem under det sena 1800-talet.I programmet reder vi ut vad konstriktningen esteticismen handlar om tillsammans med filosofiprofessorn Sven-Olov Wallenstein. Vi berättar också om skådespelaren Rupert Everetts besatthet av Oscar Wilde och att göra en film om hans liv (något han själv berättar om i sin bok To the End of the World: Travels with Oscar Wilde). Och så tar vi en kyrkogårdstur och pratar om så kallad gravturism tillsammans med författarna Bo Hedin och Arne Norlin, aktuella med boken Bland berömda svenskar: 62 promenader på Stockholms begravningsplatser.Gäst i studion är Stefan Ingvarsson, kulturskribent och utrikespolitisk analytiker.

The Picture Of Dorian GrayThe Picture Of Dorian Gray Full Book Introduction This novel recounts the story of a handsome, aristocratic youth by the name of Dorian Gray. He wished a spell on his portrait that he would retain eternal youth – a wish that ultimately came true. Thereafter, he indulged without restraint in his sensual desires. Time passed, and Dorian's beautiful looks were unchanged by time. Meanwhile, his portrait grew more hideous day by day. Finally, aiming to destroy the traces of his life of sin contained in the portrait, Dorian stabs the canvas with a knife, resulting in his own mysterious death. In death, Dorian's corpse transforms, becoming hideous and old. His painted portrait has its beauty restored. Author : Oscar WildeOscar Wilde was an Irish born writer, dramatist and poet. He was one of the greatest talents to emerge on the British literary scene since Shakespeare. He was a spokesperson for Aestheticism. From an illustrious background, Wilde was extraordinarily gifted. His works ranged from plays to novels to poetry to fairytales. He moved effortlessly between literary genres. His works for children and adults have been celebrated through generations. Fairytales, such as The Happy Prince and A House of Pomegranates, have been included in the annals of British Children's Literature, while his plays, such as Lady Windermere's Fan and An Ideal Husband, are masterpieces, remaining without parallel to this day. Overview | Chapter 1Hi, welcome to Bookey. Today for you, we will unlock the book The Picture of Dorian Gray. The book was the only full-length novel written by Oscar Wilde, the Irish dramatist and writer who settled in Britain. Oscar Wilde was born in Dublin, Ireland, into a prestigious family. His father was a surgeon, and his mother a poet and writer. Wilde was renowned for his flamboyant dressing style and his words of wit. He lived by his own rules and adopted a fearless lifestyle, restlessly moving between scandalous homosexual lovers and his respected family. Finally, due to his refusal to disavow his homosexuality, he ended up in jail. A pioneering voice in the field of Aestheticism, at the close of the 19th century ,Wilde was England's most maverick genius. Oscar Wilde flourished in a British society that was governed by strict proprieties, moral and ethical codes. Everything that anyone said and did was subject to harsh restrictions. Art and literature were subject to even greater scrutiny. Slight deviations from the norms were deemed perverse, unorthodox and unacceptable. At the time, society's prevailing view was that the value of literature and the arts lay entirely in their ability to affect people's values through their thoughts and emotions. Consequently, art would influence people's behavior. Fundamentally, literature and the arts were a tool for moral instruction. As such, the arts were deemed to command great educational utility. Wilde felt deep resentment towards this artistic ethos. He felt that this type of artwork crushed the artist's imagination and destroyed the pure beauty of art; it violated art's essence. The Picture of Dorian Gray is precisely a retaliation against such a utilitarian view of art. The novel tells the story of an aristocratic youth Dorian Gray, who is handsome in his appearance and pure at heart. But, under the seduction of a hedonist, Lord Henry Wotton, he makes a pact, trading his portrait image for his soul in exchange for eternal youth. Blessed with youth without consequence, Dorian Gray descends into an abyss of sin and evil. On account of its evocation of moral issues, the...

El director teatral y dramaturgo Ramón Paso se ha criado rodeado de grandes nombres de la comedia y de una libertad y apertura, “sin tabús”, que destaca por encima de todo. Se podría decir que Paso estaba predestinado a la comedia, pero, lejos de parecer una maldición, nuestro protagonista se siente orgulloso y privilegiado por dedicarse a una profesión vocacional: “Desde que era niño sabía que me quería dedicar a hacer reír”, asegura el director en Madrid Directo. “Desde que era niño sabía que me quería dedicar a hacer reír” No todo son flores. El dramaturgo pone sobre la mesa la dificultad del género: “Cuando termino una comedia siempre digo, nunca más. Al contrario que en el drama, en la comedia, cuando tienes argumento no tienes nada, hay que empezar a hacer chistes”, explica. Litus estrena en Madrid 'Chakapum' un teatro musical rumbero “Si hay algo más difícil que escribir comedia, es dirigirla, y aún más interpretarla”, continúa diciendo. “El actor dramático hace un horror y el público al final se va y aplaude por educación, pero en la comedia, si el público no se ríe es tremendo: nada suena tan desagradable como 400 personas calladas… El infierno es eso”, asegura. "Nada suena tan desagradable como 400 personas calladas" “La comedia no se premia y encima las instituciones la desprecian porque creen que es más fácil, más comercial… Vivimos en un país tan hortera que confundimos éxito con vulgaridad”, sentencia. A pesar de ello, para el director el teatro goza de una “mala salud de hierro”. También personalmente. Paso cuenta con un buen número de obras en cartel ('El secreto', 'BlaBlaCoche'...), incluida una nueva adaptación “más gamberra” del clásico de Wilde, ‘El Abanico de Lady Windermere”, en el Teatro Lara.

After graduating from Oxford University, he lectured as a poet, art critic and a leading proponent of the principles of aestheticism. In 1891, he published The Picture of Dorian Gray, his only novel which was panned as immoral by Victorian critics, but is now considered one of his most notable works. As a dramatist, many of Wilde's plays were well received including his satirical comedies Lady Windermere's Fan (1892), A Woman of No Importance (1893), An Ideal Husband (1895) and The Importance of Being Earnest (1895), his most famous play. Unconventional in his writing and life, Wilde's affair with a young man led to his arrest on charges of "gross indecency" in 1895.

O crime de Arthur Savile (1891) é uma história de Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) dotada de ironia, centrada nas revelações de um quiromante, Mr. Podgers. É um conto de seis capítulos que expõe descrições perfeitamente encaixadas no hedonismo - dedicação ao prazer como estilo de vida, por isso a narrativa começa num baile da alta sociedade londrina, tendo como anfitriã a duquesa Lady Windermere. A pedido dela, o quiromante passeia pelo salão lendo as mãos dos convidados até que… chega a vez de Lord Arthur Savile. De súbito, recusa-se a revelar o que leu, até que a história se desenrola numa sequência de ironias. Apesar do título do conto, Lord Arthur assume não ser um crime, mas um sacrifício, para depois poder se casar com a mulher que amava: Sibila Merton, que detinha beleza helênica. O escritor e poeta britânico é um dos principais proponentes do Esteticismo, também conhecido como Dandismo, movimento literário que valoriza a beleza em detrimento de outros valores. Hoje considerado uma figura LGBTQ da história da literatura, Wilde precisou esconder sua homossexualidade, chegou a se casar e ter filhos, deixou um romance “O retrato de Dorian Gray” e a renovação da dramaturgia irlandesa.

Oscar Wilde nació el 16 de octubre de 1854, en Dublín, Irlanda. Dramaturgo, novelista, poeta y ensayista irlandés, portavoz del esteticismo, conocido popularmente por su única novela, El retrato de Dorian Gray, y por las obras de teatro, El abanico de Lady Windermere y La importancia de llamarse Ernesto. Discípulo de Walter Pater y muy influenciado por el pintor Whistler, en 1891 publicó una serie de ensayos (Intenciones) que dieron pie a que se le considerase uno de los máximos representantes del esteticismo, cuyos aspectos más deslumbrantes y exquisitos puso de manifiesto tanto en su obra como en su vida. Wilde siempre hizo gala de un carácter excéntrico, llevaba el pelo largo y vestía pantalones de montar de terciopelo. Su habitación estaba repleta de objetos de arte y elementos decorativos, como girasoles, plumas de pavo real y porcelanas chinas. Sus actitudes y modales fueron repetidamente ridiculizados en la publicación satírica Punch y en la ópera cómica de Gilbert y Sullivan Paciencia. Su primer libro fue Poemas (1881), y su primera obra teatral, Vera o los nihilistas (1882). Tras la publicación de su libro Poemas realizó una gira por América donde dio 140 conferencias en solo nueve meses. Dirigió The Woman's World, revista de marcada tendencia feminista, y dio a la imprenta un texto en abierta defensa del socialismo (The Soul of Man under Socialism). Entre sus primeros cuentos aparecen dos colecciones de historias fantásticas, escritas para sus hijos, El príncipe feliz (1888) y La casa de las granadas (1892), y un conjunto de cuentos breves, El crimen de lord Arthur Saville (1891). Su única novela, El retrato de Dorian Gray (1891), es una melodramática historia de decadencia moral, que destaca por su brillante estilo epigramático. Se convirtió al catolicismo poco antes de morir de meningitis el 30 de noviembre de 1900 en el Hôtel d'Alsace, núm. 13, de la Rue des Beaux Arts de París. (Fuente: buscabiografias.com)

Open - So I have begun to  volunteer at a local Hospital which is also a trauma center.  What separates a  trauma center from a regular hospital?  I look at it the same way you might look at the difference between a four star and a five star hotel.  A five star hotel needs two dining rooms, one formal, and I believe 24 hour room service and concierge service… probably some other stuff. According to https://hospitalmedicaldirector.com/ which is a blog about hospital medical directors:  A level 1 trauma center must have a trauma/general surgeon in the hospital 24-hours a day, along with an anesthesiologist and a full O-R staff available in the hospital 24-hours a day as well as a critical care physician 24-hours a day.   There must also be immediate availability of an orthopedic surgeon, neurosurgeon, radiologist, plastic surgeon, and oral/maxillofacial surgeon. There must be > 1,200 trauma admissions per year.  There are also requirements for the number of hours these surgeons and physicians must have each year.     Finally, These centers must participate in research and have at least 20 publications per year. The main difference between a 1 one and a level 2 trauma center is primarily the lack of research and publication requirements. So, I have just barely started volunteering in one of California's 17 Level I trauma centers.  So far, I go on only one day a week and I shadow one of the current 6 or so resident chaplains.  There are some chaplains that are stationed on a particular floor as well, along with another set of chaplains that deal with palliative care, but that's another kettle of fish altogether.  Is it inappropriate to refer to palliative care as a “kettle of fish”?  I hope not, but you know there are always going to be people who are offended by something so… insert expletive.  You may be thinking at this point… “what?  Why?  Why would a moron want to do something like this?”  Great question.  I have no idea.  Actually I do… The thick of the pandemic.  Lost a patient from Covid Case Investigation work.  Not just a case number. I had to write an essay.  So, knowing that i am NOT a religious person, how do I write an essay about being a chaplain, with no religious foundation? What is my faith tradition?  Spiritual tradition:  Catholic High school.  1 year at Catholic College. Studied Buddhism and attended service regularly in Los Angeles (Shin Buddhist) I definitely drank the kool-aid of Improvisational theater.  Don't underestimate this.  In fact, it probably gave me the most valuable tool in doing some of this work so far. CLOSE - In conclusion… I hope to be able to provide some insight, some reflections of my experiences and who knows maybe even a guest or two!  I don't know how long I will be permitted to be a volunteer before they find out I'm a moron and a heathen, but so far it's been a very positive experience. Coming up in future Modern Moron episodes, I will be speaking to my college graduate who has a degree in art history, and we will be discussing a VERY interesting 2018 documentary called “The Price of Everything”.  The film features interviews with people prominently involved in contemporary art and the market for it and it is fascinating.  The title of the film comes from a quote from the 1892 Oscar Wilde play “Lady Windermere's Fan”.  The quote is delivered in the film by art collector Stefan Edlis: "There are a lot of people who know the price of everything and the value of nothing".  Chew on that for a while, right?   Also, in line with The Modern Moron remaining on the cutting edge of technology and pop culture, I just bought an air fryer and I simply must tell you about my favorite dishes.   Until next time, thank you for listening to The Modern Moron, please forward this episode to someone you think would like it, or to someone you think would hate it as a joke.  Thanks.

Naturalmente, no fue Lord Alfred Douglas la primera relación sentimental (ni masculina) en la vida de Oscar Wilde. Pero sí constituyó lo que en términos coloquiales se define como el gran amor de su vida . Y es que Alfred reunió en sí mismo —al menos durante cierto tiempo— cuanto Wilde había ambicionado como ideal . No siempre ocurre (y acaso también en ello Oscar tuvo suerte) ver encarnado un ideal en la vida, ver que en alguna medida las quimeras toman apetecible cuerpo… Desde final de la década de los ochenta. Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) se fue conviniendo, como santón del esteticismo, en centro de atención de muchos jóvenes escritores. Esta situación se agudizó notablemente con la publicación, en 1890 (en revista), de El retrato de Dorian Gray . La polémica provocada por el largo relato, que un año después —ampliado— se convertiría en libro, fue el impulso definitivo que llevó al siempre exhibicionista Oscar al estrellato social y literario. Muchos le detestaban ya, pero otros —y bastantes jóvenes— lo adoraban. Encarnaba para éstos la imagen y el estilo de una nueva literatura, de una nueva sensibilidad, de una visión del mundo, en fin, más refinada, atrevida y bella. En el filo de esos años Wilde había conocido —y mantenido con él una corta relación— a John Gray, un joven y muy bien parecido poeta, al que todos identificaron de inmediato (bien que nada les uniese en carácter) con el Dorian de la novela. Entre los nuevos poetas que por entonces trataron a Oscar, estaban, también, W. B. Yeats, Richard Le Gallienne y Lionel Johnson (1867-1902). Éste, estudiante en Oxford, se había hecho allí amigo de otro estudiante, tres años más joven que él y con idénticas aficiones literarias y líricas. Al poco —y no sabemos por iniciativa de quién de los dos—, Lionel Johnson habló de ese estudiante a Oscar, y le llevó algo después a tomar el té al 16 de Tite Street. El estudiante amigo de Lionel era Lord Alfred Bruce Douglas, tercer hijo del Marqués de Queensberry. Evidentemente, Alfred sintió cariño y admiración por Wilde, pero parece que un amor recíproco y de similar intensidad no lo experimentó nunca. En la época cenital de sus relaciones Oscar era un hombre corpulento, grueso, con la dentadura estropeada, y un físico, resumiendo, poco atractivo. Sin embargo su encanto, el manejo de una conversación culta y fulgente, su talento de causeur y su aludida celebridad, podían compensar la otra ausencia. Para Douglas, Wilde fue, ante todo, la imagen viva del arte, la encarnación del artista —anticonvencional y mágico, transgresor , en una palabra— que él mismo soñaba. Si él era el Dorian innegable de la novela, Oscar era una relativa mezcla de Basil, el pintor, y Lord Henry, el mundano. Pero el amor apasionado , el amor plenamente correspondido, no parece que llegara a existir, entre otras cosas, porque a Lord Alfred (como Gide contó en Si le grain ne meurt …) sus tendencias homoeróticas le conducían asimismo al recinto adolescente… A ese pares cum paribus tan raramente alcanzado. De hecho, la relación —o el amor, si se piensa desde el lado de Oscar— entre Wilde y Douglas, tuvo tres claras etapas que ejemplifican un tipo de historia homosexual no infrecuente. La primera (tras el prólogo de sus iniciales encuentros) abarcaría desde fines de 1891 hasta mediados de 1893. En esos casi dos años, la historia se mueve en el terreno más clásico . El creador adulto, el hombre maduro tentado y fascinado por el muchacho hermoso y cautivador. No habrá interferencias ni deslices. Wilde, enamorado de Alfred, es correspondido —en la forma descrita— por éste. Se muestran juntos en publico, y hasta pasan pequeñas temporadas vacacionales unidos. Como casi todos los señoritos , Lord Alfred maneja poco dinero, aunque no concede importancia ninguna al tema. Ello hace que Oscar tenga que correr con sus dispendiosos gastos —los de ambos—, lo cual crea al escritor muy frecuentes problemas económicos. Vivieron en ese período una suerte de bohemia dorada , entre cenas, champagne y visitas a los lugares de moda en Londres… El exitoso estreno (en febrero de 1892) de El abanico de Lady Windermere aportó nuevos ingresos y creciente celebridad a Wilde, que puso todo ello a favor de su relación con el joven aristócrata. Pero (lo sabemos ya) no era un carácter débil, y el idilio lujoso y escandaloso, se veta salpicado —incluso en público— de desplantes y escenas caprichosas, de súbitos enfados, de irritantes mohines, que constituyeron desde entonces para Wilde el lado más odioso del carácter despótico de su amigo. ---- Una producción de Historias para ser leídas ©¡Audiolibros, relatos y ficciones sonoras con los que sumergirte en otra realidad!

Since then the gigs have got rather more glamorous and have led to collaborations with the likes of David McAlmont, Rachel Tucker and Kathy Burke.They discuss Shane’s critically acclaimed oratorio, The Pieta, a beautiful piece set in Manchester and depicting a mother’s devastation at the loss of her son to street crime. Shane talks about some of the techniques he employed in the process of writing and scoring this as well as writing the libretto.Seb and Verity ask Shane about working with Kathy Burke again, writing the music for her West End production of Lady Windermere’s Fan. Included in the score are fan breakbeats and funk bassoon...words you never thought you’d hear together.///Show notesTwitter: @musofunkInstagram: @shanecullinanmusicFacebook: Shane Cullinan MusicShane’s Website Click here to join the Members' Club on Patreon!

Hörspiel nach einer Erzählung von Oscar Wilde I Auf dem letzten Fest der Saison bei Lady Windermere liest ein Chiromant dem jungen Lord Arthur Savile aus der Hand und sieht eine furchtbare Tat voraus: Lord Arthur wird einen Mord begehen. Arthur, der kurz vor seiner Vermählung mit Lady Sybil steht, gerät in Panik: er muss den vorausgesagten Mord noch vor der Hochzeit durchführen, damit kein Makel auf seine Ehe, auf Sybil fällt. Die Zeit drängt, wen kann er unauffällig durch Mord beseitigen? Der Lord hat keinerlei Bedenken zu morden. Für ihn besteht die moralische Pflicht darin, sein Vorhaben noch vor der Ehe auszuführen.

Con “El abanico de Lady Windermere”, Oscar Wilde destacaba la importancia de la labor teatral que habría de marchar paralela con la de su coterráneo George Bernard Shaw. Ambos asumieron una actitud diferente pero igualmente crítica ante la sociedad de su tiempo, cada uno desde sus propias inquietudes y talento. Algunos críticos señalan que “El abanico de Lady Windermere”, que data de 1892, es la mejor obra teatral de Wilde (aún sobre “La importancia de llamarse Ernesto”, tan famosa como celebrada). Es evidente que la comedia posee elementos escénicos muy bien manejados pues, sin desdeñar ciertas cercanías peligrosas con el melodramatismo finisecular, consigue una articulación ágil y elegante, típicamente wildeana. "El abanico de Lady Windermere" se estrenó en el teatro Haymarket de Lóndres con éxito resonante el 19 de Abril de 1892.

REFLECTION QUOTES “A cynic knows the price of everything and the value of nothing.” ~Oscar Wilde (1854-1900) in Lady Windermere's Fan “One even wonders whether some current churchgoers might…be resistant were they to encounter a Christianity that is deep, costly, and demanding.” ~David F. Wells in God in the Whirlwind: How the Holy-love of God Reorients Our World “Anyone who has once been horrified by the dreadfulness of his own sin that nailed Jesus to the cross will no longer be horrified by even the rankest sins of a brother.” ~Dietrich Bonhoeffer (1906-1945), theologian who lost his life defying Hitler “The power of just mercy is that it belongs to the undeserving. It's when mercy is least expected that it is most potent—strong enough to break the cycle of victimization and victimhood, retribution and suffering.” ~Brian Stephenson in Just Mercy: A Story of Justice and Redemption “Where there is no longer any opportunity for doubt, there is no longer any opportunity for faith either…. Christian faith does not involve repressing one's anxiety in order to appear strong. On the contrary, it means recognizing one's weakness, accepting the inward truth about oneself, confessing one's anxiety, and still to believe, that is to say that the Christian puts his trust not in his own strength, but in the grace of God.” ~Paul Tournier (1898-1986), the Swiss physician and author “Jesus is a teacher who doesn't just inform our intellect but forms our very loves. He isn't content to simply deposit new ideas into your mind; he is after nothing less than your wants, your loves, your longings.” ~James K.A. Smith in You Are What You Love: The Spiritual Power of Habit “It is like employing a small tool on big constructions, if we use human wisdom in the hunt for knowledge of reality.” ~Gregory of Nazianzus (c. 329-390), Archbishop of Constantinople SERMON PASSAGE Jude (ESV) 1 Jude, a servant of Jesus Christ and brother of James, To those who are called, beloved in God the Father and kept for Jesus Christ: 2 May mercy, peace, and love be multiplied to you. 3 Beloved, although I was very eager to write to you about our common salvation, I found it necessary to write appealing to you to contend for the faith that was once for all delivered to the saints. 4 For certain people have crept in unnoticed who long ago were designated for this condemnation, ungodly people, who pervert the grace of our God into sensuality and deny our only Master and Lord, Jesus Christ. 5 Now I want to remind you, although you once fully knew it, that Jesus, who saved a people out of the land of Egypt, afterward destroyed those who did not believe. 6 And the angels who did not stay within their own position of authority, but left their proper dwelling, he has kept in eternal chains under gloomy darkness until the judgment of the great day— 7 just as Sodom and Gomorrah and the surrounding cities, which likewise indulged in sexual immorality and pursued unnatural desire, serve as an example by undergoing a punishment of eternal fire. 8 Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme the glorious ones. 9 But when the archangel Michael, contending with the devil, was disputing about the body of Moses, he did not presume to pronounce a blasphemous judgment, but said, “The Lord rebuke you.” 10 But these people blaspheme all that they do not understand, and they are destroyed by all that they, like unreasoning animals, understand instinctively. 11 Woe to them! For they walked in the way of Cain and abandoned themselves for the sake of gain to Balaam's error and perished in Korah's rebellion. 12 These are hidden reefs at your love feasts, as they feast with you without fear, shepherds feeding themselves; waterless clouds, swept along by winds; fruitless trees in late autumn, twice dead, uprooted; 13 wild waves of the sea, casting up the foam of their own shame; wandering stars, for whom the gloom of utter darkness has been reserved forever. 14 It was also about these that Enoch, the seventh from Adam, prophesied, saying, “Behold, the Lord comes with ten thousands of his holy ones, 15 to execute judgment on all and to convict all the ungodly of all their deeds of ungodliness that they have committed in such an ungodly way, and of all the harsh things that ungodly sinners have spoken against him.” 16 These are grumblers, malcontents, following their own sinful desires; they are loud-mouthed boasters, showing favoritism to gain advantage. 17 But you must remember, beloved, the predictions of the apostles of our Lord Jesus Christ. 18 They said to you, “In the last time there will be scoffers, following their own ungodly passions.” 19 It is these who cause divisions, worldly people, devoid of the Spirit. 20 But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, 21 keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. 22 And have mercy on those who doubt; 23 save others by snatching them out of the fire; to others show mercy with fear, hating even the garment stained by the flesh. 24 Now to him who is able to keep you from stumbling and to present you blameless before the presence of his glory with great joy, 25 to the only God, our Savior, through Jesus Christ our Lord, be glory, majesty, dominion, and authority, before all time and now and forever. Amen.

CRI Exclusive Interview with Irish President Michael D. Higgins Irish President Michael D. Higgins is urging young Chinese to assert more the legacy of the Chinese civilization, which has a long history and transformation. He also says the world will see China play an important role in a new global order. He made the remarks in an exclusive interview with our reporter Wu You in Shanghai before he winds up his eight-day visit to China. Reporter: As a poet President who values cultural inheritance very much, what aspects of the Irish culture are you proud to share with the Chinese people? Michael D. Higgins: Well, I think that sharing has already started, I mean, I have, during the visit, been speaking about the influence, first of all, of the fourth century Chinese writer on Oscar Wilde, who really, we'll say, Chuang Tzu, with great influence on Oscar Wilde, before he wrote Lady Windermere's Fan (温夫人的扇子)and many plays, that is a very interesting connection. But then some of the contemporary Irish writers, they have been translated into Chinese. I saw presented to me as a gift, the first volume of the translation of Finnegans Wake(芬尼根的守灵夜), James Joyce, and I would like to see Irish visual artists making it into the galleries. Reporter: What part of the Chinese culture are Irish people most interested in? Michael D. Higgins: I think they're interested in, again, is rather similar. And I think China, young Chinese people, maybe need to assert it more, when they come to Europe, is the very long legacy of civilization that stand behind China. I think not enough is often made either of the extraordinary contribution that calligraphy represents in relation to the history of art, but also the different philosophical movements and how they shade into one another, certainly some of the basic principles in philosophy, are ones that come from the moment before Rene Descartes and the enlightenment in Europe as it is called. Reporter: So when Chinese young people go abroad for study or work, Europe is one of their most favorite destinations. What are the policies of Ireland in attracting more Chinese young talents to go there to work or study? Michael D. Higgins: Well, I think first of all it's easier now, because after the establishment of joint fees with Britain let's say for visiting you can in fact get on a single visa you can go to either Britain and Ireland, and it includes all of Ireland. But I think as well there are 2700 Chinese students who are studying at the present time, 2400 who are studying Irish masters here. There's a great advantage that if you are learning English in the cities and in the country of somebody of that 4 Nobel laureates in a language that they took on over just 100 years ago. And that you have the location of some of the principal science and technology companies in the world, and then you have an opportunity after study of spending a year involving yourself. Reporter: In Fudan University of Shanghai, you made a speech on the emergence of a new global order and the importance of the multilateral system. How do you see a new global order and China's role in it? Michael D. Higgins: What I had in mind in the Fudan speech first specifically is that if one looks across the world history and you see governments, you see peoples coming to prominence at a particular time. Very often they have in fact sacrificed that opportunity through building up war, using science and technology for instance a war of aggression. I see a great opportunity for China when history comes to be written in decades to come that China made king to prominence such a time when great global challenges were global warming, global poverty, unfair structured trade, possibility of dealing with eradicable diseases. And if in fact China moves into that space, redefining interdependency, giving a headline in all of these areas that they have a long long legacy being created then and it's something that its benefits are not confined to China, but to humanity that it establishes. I think it removes many misconceptions in relation to the future of the global order and China's role in it. I have no such fear. I believe myself the part of the misunderstanding of the contribution that China can make, is because of the failure to understand the long history. And the many transformations the Chinese people have made and are in the process of making no more than ourselves in Ireland. I'm quite optimistic but I am very convinced of need to have a new architecture for multilateralism. Remember those institutions we've had IMF, World Bank, Brentwood Institutions, they came into existence in a particular set of circumstances, those are not our circumstances now. We've new challenges, and the title of my paper was facing new challenges, building a new multilateralism and the role of China.
