- W2336341421 abstract "When the complete text of Oscar Wilde’s crie de coeur “De Profundis” was at last made available to the public sixty-five years after it was written, the poet W. H. Auden was unimpressed by its artistic manifesto but fascinated by its treatment of Wilde’s doomed romance with Lord Alfred Douglas. In this paper, we revisit and re-evaluate both, using the late Ruqaiya Hasan’s delicate distinction between “literary text,” in which the primary intention of a text is some act of communication in an extant context of situation, and “literature text,” in which the primary meaning lies in what Barthes calls a secondary order of semiosis-not necessarily a fictional one, but one which is not a communication in an immediate context of situation. Hasan finds that secondary acts of semiosis seem to create, through “symbolic articulation,” e.g. through stylized verbalization and through characterization, a constellation of themes that are supererogatory-a surplus of meaning that creates its own context. We argue that we can read the cuts made to the original manuscript when it was published in 1905 as the first step in transforming Wilde’s letter to his former lover from a literary text into a literature text, and we can read Wilde’s final work, “The Ballad of Reading Gaol,” as a belated but nevertheless successful fulfillment of its manifesto. While this reading foregrounds precisely those elements that Auden finds “childish and boring” and backgrounds those he finds replete with “the insight, the honesty, and unself-conscious style of a great writer,” it has the advantage of relegating the once central figure of Douglas to a position more appropriate to his stature in literary history: neither a tragic hero nor a comical villain, but a trivial footnote in the history of the production of literature texts." @default.
