Study Day: Oscar Wilde

To coincide with the symbolic reinstating of his Reader Pass 130 years after it was revoked, join us for a day of diving into the life and work of Oscar Wilde. We are inviting English and Drama students to deepen their understanding of Wilde's most famous work, including The Importance of Being Earnest, An Ideal Husband and The Picture of Dorian Gray.

Students will explore the context and interpretation of Wilde's work. This will include a unique opportunity to view rare Oscar Wilde archival material held by the Library, including manuscripts and photographs.

Group size: Maximum 30 students per school

Session time: 10.30 – 14.30

Booking is essential via the 'Book Now' button. Please email schools@bl.uk if you have questions or need help with the form.
