Synopsis
Un etre vivant peut etre dit beau, de meme qu'une oeuvre d'art. Pour Oscar Wilde, la beaute du premier appelle a la seconde, et l'eros inherent au desir ne prend sa veritable ampleur que dans la creation, qu'elle soit picturale ou litteraire. Cette puissante dialectique se traduit par une architecture conceptuelle d'une rare sophistication philosophique, dont le Portrait de Dorian Gray manifeste les lignes de force dans le prisme chatoyant d'une fiction fantastique. C'est qu'en effet Wilde ecrivain se veut davantage visionnaire qu'analyste: l'experience de la beaute est en elle-meme une vision surnaturelle et mystique dont la magie propre serait au demeurant magiquement naturelle, c'est-a-dire sexuelle. Wilde subit et revendique a la fois sa propre obsession pour la beaute qu'il voit comme le "symbole des symboles "qui" revele tout parce qu'elle n'exprime rien". Cette obsession de toute une vie tient autant de sa personnalite singuliere que de la paranoia farouche de l'epoque victorienne a l'encontre de la chair et du plaisir, qui fait muter le desir en son autre : une rage haineuse, agressive et repressive dont la magie noire se fait encore sentir aujourd'hui. C'est ce qui transparait, a la longue, dans ce portrait delicieusement malefique., Un etre vivant peut etre dit beau, de meme qu'une oeuvre d'art.

- r***r (2961)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseBook arrived today, 2 days before deadline given by the seller. Well-packaged & in good condition. Price was very competitive, & the book was accurately listed. Great communication. I appreciate the seller getting back to me when I was having trouble tracking the book's delivery progress. Apparently there were 2 different tracking numbers - one in Canada & the other in the U.S., since it was initially shipped from Canada. Thank you very much for your quick response & helpful information.Rethinking Investing: A Very Short Guide to Very Long-Term Investing by Charles (#396183075510)
- e***_ (14)- Feedback left by buyer.Past 6 monthsVerified purchaseSeller handles a massive inventory so I give them grace on the slow processing and shipping. They were very communicative and prompt with their response when I messaged in asking about it. Book was in good condition as described. Small ding on the page edges which wasn't mentioned, but that's fairly common even at your typical book store. Still a good value and I'd buy from them again.
- 0***i (5)- Feedback left by buyer.Past monthVerified purchaseThe first item arrived with some damage to the inside back cover, but the seller responded immediately, assuring me they’d provide a replacement, and even told me I could keep the original. They were upfront about a short delay, and gave a clear estimated ship date, and followed up right on time once it shipped. The replacement arrived in perfect condition and exactly as described. I really appreciated their transparency and professionalism. Would definitely buy from them again!
