What a pleasant New Year's surprise! Seems I won't have to take my diary on the train. |

v.3.5 | Update 21 Aug 2016
I have proofed Reviews against the 1921 Wyman-Fogg edition (which is presumably a straight reprint of the 1908 Methuen edition) and corrected hundreds of mistakes and variants.
This concludes proofing the texts of this edition, so please let me know if you find any mistakes. I will add his letters someday, though. — Next: Thomas Wolfe. |

v.4.0 | Update 16 Apr 2017
I have added The Letters of Oscar Wilde (Rupert Hart-Davis, ed., Harcourt, Brace & World, 1962), which I have ocr’d and proofread myself.
I wasn’t really happy with using Methuen’s posthumous Collected Edition, so I have tried to get scans of the authorised first (or early) book editions and reproofed the following texts: Ravenna, Poems (5th ed., 1882), The Happy Prince and Other Tales, Intentions, Lord Arthur Savile's Crime and Other Stories, A House of Pomegranates, Salomé (French original), Lady Windermere's Fan, A Woman of No Importance, The Ballad of Reading Gaol (2nd ed., Feb. 1898), The Importance of Being Earnest, and An Ideal Husband. As the full text of De Profundis now appears in the context of Wilde’s other letters, I have added the newly-proofed shortened version as it first appeared in the 1905 Methuen edition. “The Portrait of Mr W.H.,” “Poems in Prose,” and “The Soul of Man under Socialism” now follow the first magazine releases. “The Portrait of Mr W.H.” was heavily revised (and doubled in length) by Wilde after its initial release; this text was first published in 1921 and is now included. For Poems and The Ballad of Reading Gaol, variants of the first editions are hidden in the code which appear if you delete “display: none; ” in the stylesheet specifications for the <ins> element. If you do the same for the <del> element, you will get the page numbers for most of the texts (i.e., everything except the letters and reviews). Now I’m a happy prince. |
