El Retrato De Dorian Gray / The Picture of Dorian Gray

El Retrato De Dorian Gray / The Picture of Dorian Gray (Spanish Edition)

En su Ãºnica novela, el divino Oscar Wilde puso al dÃa el mito de Fausto. En este caso, la vÃctima es Dorian Gray, un bello y joven presuntuoso a quien un amigo hace un retrato al Ã³leo. Cuando Dorian trabe amistad con lord Henry Wotton, un cÃnico filÃ³sofo, Ã©ste le convencerÃ¡ de que sus mÃ¡s valiosas posesiones son su belleza y su juventud. Y a partir de ahÃ, su deseo de que su retrato envejezca mientras Ã©l permanezca joven se hace realidad. Estamos, simple y llanamente, ante uno de los libros mÃ¡s bellos e ingeniosos de todos los tiempos. Dorian Gray is the subject of a full-length portrait in oil by Basil Hallward, an artist who is impressed and infatuated by Dorian's beauty; he believes that Dorianâ€™s beauty is responsible for the new mode in his art as a painter. Through Basil, Dorian meets Lord Henry Wotton, and he soon is enthralled by the aristocrat's hedonistic worldview: that beauty and sensual fulfilment are the only things worth pursuing in life. Understanding that his beauty will fade, Dorian expresses the desire to sell his soul, to ensure that the picture, rather than he, will age and fade. The wish is granted, and Dorian pursues a libertine life of varied and amoral experiences; all the while his portrait ages and records every soul-corrupting sin.
