Copertina di Oscar Wilde: Salome: A Tragedy in One Act (ePUB)

"Salome: A Tragedy in One Act" by Oscar Wilde is a one-act play reimagining the biblical story of Salome, King Herod's stepdaughter, and her seductive dance of the seven veils. Set in King Herod's palace, the play unfolds dramatically, recounting the events leading to the beheading of John the Baptist. Salome's infatuation with the prophet Jokanaan (John the Baptist) drives her to demand his head as a reward for her dance. The play delves deeply into themes of desire, lust, and power, exploring the complex and tumultuous emotions of its characters. Wilde's "Salome" is renowned for its lush and poetic language, as well as its exploration of decadence and forbidden desires. It remains a compelling and provocative work, challenging societal norms and offering a unique interpretation of a biblical narrative through Wilde's distinctive style.
