Decadencia De La Mentira

decadencia de la mentira

by Oscar Wilde

"La Decadencia de la Mentira" es una colección de ensayos del escritor irlandés Oscar Wilde, publicada en 1889. En ella, Wilde explora la naturaleza del arte, la verdad y la mentira. Sostiene que el arte es esencialmente estético y que no debe estar sujeto a consideraciones morales o utilitarias. También critica la idea de que la naturaleza es superior al arte, argumentando que el arte es una forma más elevada de realidad que la naturaleza imita. Los ensayos de Wilde son ingeniosos y perspicaces, y ofrecen una valiosa contribución a la teoría del arte.
