    Content: Myrrhina, a courtisane, seeks out a hermit who she has heard is beautiful; she hopes to tempt him from his righteous path into a life of earthly love. However, on beholding the cross for the first time, she finds herself instead converting to a life of virtue, while he, who indeed has fallen for her beauty, hopes to take her away as his lover. Written in 1894, 'La Sainte Courtisane' exists only as a fragment and was never completed. Here, a line of dots in the text indicates where a new fragment begins

    Content: 'Vera' is a tragic melodrama which takes as its heroine a fictionalised account of Vera Zasulich, a Russian revolutionary in the pre-Bolshevik era; a 'Nihilist' as Dostoyevsky and Turgenev would have called her. In Wilde's play, Zasulich is exhorted by her imprisoned brother to join the Nihilist movement in Moscow. There she rises up the ranks to become one of the movement's top assassins. She falls in love with a fellow revolutionary, the brilliant Alexis, who in time will reveal a secret identity so unexpected that it will test to the last Vera's love and commitment to her ideals

    Content: 'Salomé' is a short, but bewitching tragedy based on the biblical story of King Herod in the New Testament. Telling a tale of lustful desire and power, the language of the play is saturated and verbose, and the imagery, decadent and lush. The sequences of seduction and passion are consistently offset by the grotesque, most evident in the sudden suicide of the Young Syrian, and the presentation of Jokanaan's severed head on a silver shield. Wilde wrote 'Salomé' in French in 1891 while residing in Paris. It was translated into English in 1894; despite the Lord Chamberlain's ban dating from the Reformation that forbade the representation of biblical characters onstage, it was given 5 private performances in London between 1905 and 1931. Besides being performed fairly extensively in recent times, it has inspired a multitude of contemporary plays, songs, and films

    Content: 'A Florentine Tragedy' is in blank-verse set in the sixteenth century. It tells the story of the illicit love between a burgher's wife, Bianca, and the young heir to the throne of Florence, Guido. Guido has come to the house of the burgher Simone to claim Bianca for his own. Encouraged by her, Guido promises a fortune to Simone in exchange for her hand. Simone, though greedy for the money, is not to be swayed so easily, and a fight to the death ensues. Written in 1894, 'A Florentine Tragedy' exists only as a fragment, often accompanied for the purposes of presentation by an opening scene commissioned from the Irish poet Thomas Sturge Moore by Robert Ross, Wilde's literary executor. Only Oscar Wilde's work is presented here

    Content: A 'trivial play for serious people', a sparkling comedy of manners, 'The Importance of Being Earnest' is the epitome of wit and style. The play employs and parodies the conventions of farce and melodrama: identities are discovered, long lost family ties reinstated, and coincidences are savoured. The verbal brilliance of its highly self-conscious characters hides deep anxieties about social and personal identity. This neatly constructed satire, with its celebrated characters and much quoted dialogue, turns accepted ideas inside out and is generally regarded as Wilde's masterpiece

    Content: La Chine s’est éveillée au monde. Elle multiplie sans ambages les relations avec les autres sujets de la scène internationale. C’est une nouveauté. La mentalité impériale ne concevait les rapports avec les autres que sous l’angle de l’allégeance ou de la vassalité et non sur le mode du rapport égalitaire. Aujourd’hui, la Chine se projette sur la scène internationale avec, certes, un attachement farouche à la souveraineté étatique, mais en postulant ipso facto une égalité entre Etats. Pékin entre dans le jeu international avec son prisme national, tant pour y tenir un certain rôle que pour veiller à ce que les règles ne soient pas modifiées à son insu ou à son détriment. C’est à cette rencontre singulière de la Chine avec le monde que cet ouvrage est consacré.La première interrogation porte sur l’ascension pacifique de la Chine dans les relations internationales que Pékin préfère présenter désormais comme un développement pacifique. Si, dans cette optique, le discours officiel recycle à bien des égards les principes de la coexistence pacifique, la réalité ne peut toutefois être éludée : quel type de puissance la Chine est-elle et entend-elle être parmi les acteurs déterminants de la scène internationale ? L’influence planétaire revendiquée a-t-elle comme corollaire une responsabilité accrue dans la sécurité globale ?
