AESTHETIC ALLURE: BEAUTY AND SENSUALITY IN THE WORKS OF OSCAR WILDE
Аннотация
Beauty as a Reflection of the Soul is to explore the philosophical implications of beauty in the novel, particularly in relation to the concept of the soul. Consider how Dorian's portrait serves as a physical manifestation of his inner corruption, contrasting his outwardly beautiful appearance with the grotesque transformation depicted in the painting. This article identifies how this duality reflects Wilde's commentary on the nature of beauty and its connection to inner virtue or vice.
