In his essay “The Soul of Man under Socialism,” Oscar Wilde declared that “Charity creates a multitude of sins.” This theme is one of the most prevalent in the tales, and Wilde makes it abundantly clear he is no believer in the virtue's putative merits. ![]() Whether it be romance, friendship, or even simple kinship, Wilde explores the dark side of these relationships, often by having the character who shows true love suffer immensely.

This did not dissuade the critics from vocalizing their issues with the kiss between the Swallow and the Happy Prince or the Giant and the Boy, as they deemed them inappropriate and perverse. Many critics have read homosexual undertones in a few of the depicted relationships, which explains why Wilde felt the need to disclaim these tales as directed to adult audiences rather than children. Love is a recurring theme in the tales of Oscar Wilde. ![]() ![]() When I did sit down at my computer, my head wouldn't cooperate - too much triptephene.
