Story
"Mein Hals wurde trocken, als ich dieses, sich in meine Seele bohrende Wort hörte, und versuchte ihm allen Schrecken zu nehmen, den es gerade auf mich auszuüben begann. Ich wollte mich erheben, mir Flügel wachsen lassen, um der Sonne einen Gruß zu schenken und spürte stattdessen, wie der Boden sich unter meinen Füßen auftat und ich hinabzustürzen drohte, in ein unendliches, schwarzes Loch."

Oscar Wilde is most famous for his satirical plays which he wrote at the time of great literary enlightenment, when all Britons were able to embrace literature previously only available to the wealthy and educated.

Story
Once upon a time, two poor woodcutters were making their way home through a great pine forest. It was winter and a night of bitter cold. The snow lay thick upon the ground and upon the branches of the trees; the frost kept snapping the little twigs on either side of them as they passed; and when they came to the Mountain Torrent, she was hanging motionless in air, for the Ice King had kissed her.

Story
Little Hans spends most of his time gardening and makes a living from sales of his beautiful flowers. Little Hans always treats his neighbours well and even allows the neighbouring rich miller to pick flowers from his garden. But the miller rarely invites Hans into his house or responds in kind. The miller instead has his own philosophy of friendship: 'Lots of people act well, but very few people talk well, which shows that talking is much the more difficult thing of the two, and much the finer thing also'.

Seine Menschlichkeit, Empfindsamkeit und tragisch-komische Romantik heben seine Geschichten auf Sphären der Zeitlosigkeit empor und lassen deren Quintessenzen wie Sterne der Wahrhaftigkeit strahlen. Wer von Oscar Wildes Geschichten nicht berührt wird ist kein Mensch und wer Oscar Wilde nicht kennt, verdient es nicht als... ok sagen wir ist selber schuld.

Gibt es moralische und ethische Werte, die unabhängig von Religionen sind? Selbstverständlich gibt es sie. Was wie eine alltägliche und philosophische Binsenweisheit klingt, scheint bis heute noch nicht selbstverständlich zu sein. In dieser wunderbaren Erzählung wird die Kraft der Liebe charakterisiert und wie diese sich über alle religiösen Vorurteile hinwegsetzt, denn Liebe ist stärker als Religion - an jedem Ort zu jeder Zeit.

Testament artistique d'Oscar Wilde, "La ballade de la geôle de Reading" est un poème réquisitoire contre la peine de mort et les horreurs de la vie carcérale. Mais c'est surtout une ode à la compassion et à l'humanité. En décrivant les derniers jours d'un condamné à mort, Wilde nous fait toucher l'essence de notre humanité, Il fixe la "petite tente de ciel bleu", la paix possible qui suit même les plus grandes tourmentes ; il aborde les grands mystères de la vie : l'amour, la mort et la rédemption.

Thesen und Antithesen, Beweise und Gegenbeweise werden angeführt, aber die zwei schlüssigsten Theorien schließen sich gegenseitig aus.

“You like it darker? Fine, so do I,” writes Stephen King in the afterword to this magnificent new collection of twelve stories that delve into the darker part of life—both metaphorical and literal. King has, for half a century, been a master of the form, and these stories, about fate, mortality, luck, and the folds in reality where anything can happen, are as rich and riveting as his novels, both weighty in theme and a huge pleasure to digest.
