Salomé
by Oscar Wilde, translated by Matt DiCintio
Synopsis
Inspired by symbolist poetry and the frequent appearance of Salomé in contemporary art and literature, Oscar Wilde wrote SALOMÉ in French during a Paris stay in 1891–92.
The play's sexuality and religious needling — not to mention the final scene in which Salome embraces the decapitated head of a saint — drew censors' ire.
No public presentation was given in England until 1931.
