Oscar Wilde was born in 1854, in
Dublin. He was born to a middle class and eccentric
family, which first introduced him to the arts. In
1971, Wilde attended Trinity College on a
scholarship, and next went to Magdalen College in
Oxford. In 1884, he married Constance Lloyd, but it
did not last. Wilde did most of his successful
writing following 1889. Unfortunately, he also began
experimenting in homosexuality. Wilde was given a
three year sentence for sodomy, and his reputation
was ruined. Wilde died in Paris in 1900.
