Episode 18 - The Drained Aesthetics of Imperialism. The Rotten World of Dorian Gray


Listen Later

In this episode we talk about another piece of Gothic Fiction! Oscar Wilde's 1891, "The Picture of Dorian Gray". We have a great discussion on the dreadful Victorian society, how to think about Aesthetics in a not terrible way, the violence of Imperialism and how nobles are horrible! A really fun and a truly Wilde discussion! Hehe (sorry)
