2 editions published in 1989 in German and held by 360 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

This performance presents the great Leonie Rysanek in one of her most memorable roles--the teenage Judean princess Salome. Obsessed with the prophet Jochanaan, the Biblical John the Baptist (Norman Bailey), she skillfully manipulates her lecherous stepfather Herod (Ragnar Ulfung) until he has no choice but to have the holy man killed for spurning the princess's advances. The legendary Astrid Varnay is Salome's mother, Herodias. Highlights of the score include the Dance of the Seven Veils and Salome's final monologue, one of the supreme dramatic achievements in all of opera

Oscar Wilde and myself by Alfred Bruce Douglas( Book )

30 editions published between 1914 and 2013 in 5 languages and held by 303 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Alfred Douglas, known to many as "Bosie" is remembered mostly for his tumultuous and highly publicized love affair with Oscar Wilde. He is also known for his work as a minor English poet. Born October 22, 1870, Lord Douglas was the third son of John Sholto Douglas, ninth Marquess of Queensberry, and Sibyl, née Montgomery. Douglas met Oscar Wilde through a mutual friend in early summer, 1891, and their relationship is legendary. Douglas wrote this biography in response to Wilde's publication of "De Profundis," a post trial book in which he criticizes his former lover. Though their relationship was strained by the trial, and they ended their affair, the two remained friends. This volume is a fascinating read

Salome by Oscar Wilde( Book )

20 editions published between 1894 and 2015 in English and German and held by 85 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

Salome is Oscar Wilde's most experimental--and controversial--play. In its own time, the play, written in French, was described by a reviewer as "an arrangement in blood and ferocity, morbid, bizarre, repulsive." None, however, could deny the importance of Wilde's creation. Contemporary audiences and reviewers variously regarded Salome as the symbol of a thrilling modernity, a challenge to patriarchy, a confession of desire, a sign of moral decay, a new form of art, and a revolt against the restraints of Victorian society. Less well known than Wilde's beloved comedies, Salome is as enduringly modern and relevant. This edition uses the English translation done by Wilde's lover, Lord Alfred Douglas, and overseen and corrected by Wilde himself. Appendices detail the play's sources and provide extensive materials on its contemporary reception and dramatic productions. --Provided by publisher
