This monograph presents original research findings concerning Oscar Wilde's membership of a Liberal political club and his

views on Irish Home Rule. It has significant implications for our understanding of Wilde's attitude to Irish nationalism and

British politics, and helps us interpret several political allusions in his writings. Wilde famously 'lived more lives than one', and

had multiple personalities; this book reveals a little-known Wilde - the political activist.
