The Shame of Oscar Wilde: From the Shorthand Reports (1906) is a book by Michael William Thomas Howe that provides a detailed account of the infamous trial of Oscar Wilde. The book is based on the original shorthand reports of the trial, which were taken by a court stenographer and later published in the form of a book. The trial, which took place in 1895, saw Wilde accused of homosexual acts and ultimately led to his imprisonment. Howe's book delves into the details of the trial, providing a comprehensive analysis of the evidence presented and the legal arguments made by both sides. The book also explores the social and cultural context of the trial, examining the attitudes towards homosexuality in Victorian England and the impact that the trial had on Wilde's reputation and legacy. Overall, The Shame of Oscar Wilde offers a fascinating insight into one of the most notorious trials in British history and sheds light on the complex and often contradictory attitudes towards sexuality and morality in the late 19th century.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
