De Profundis

De Profundis

Oscar Wilde

Translated by Boutens P. C.

De Profundis is a letter written by Oscar Wilde during his imprisonment for 'gross indecency' in 1897. Addressed to Lord Alfred Douglas, it reflects on Wilde's life, love, and suffering, serving as both a farewell and a profound meditation on his experiences. The work was transcribed from the 1913 Methuen & Co. edition, though later editions contain additional material that remains under copyright in the U.S.A.
