Oscar Wilde's Intentions is a collection of essays written in the late 19th century that explores themes of art, morality, and aesthetics in depth. The opening piece, "The Decay of Lying," takes the form of a dialogue between two characters, Cyril and Vivian, engaging in a clever and philosophical discussion about the nature of lying in art and literature. Wilde emphasizes the transformative and essential role of art in society while critiquing modern realism for undermining creativity and beauty.
The introduction to Intentions presents a lively debate between Cyril, who advocates for an appreciation of nature, and Vivian, who values the comfort and creativity found indoors. Vivian argues that the decline of lying as an art form has rendered contemporary literature dull, insisting that art should reflect imagination rather than mundane reality. Through sharp and humorous exchanges, Wilde critiques societal values surrounding truth and beauty, championing the importance of artistic imagination over factual representation.
This discourse sets an intriguing and thought-provoking tone for the essays that follow, inviting readers to reconsider their perspectives on art and its relationship with lies.
