Joseph Bristow and Rebecca N. Mitchell examine Oscar Wilde’s profound intellectual preoccupation with the eighteenth-century poet and forger Thomas Chatterton. By analyzing Wilde’s lectures, essays, and creative works, the authors trace how this historical figure served as a catalyst for Wilde’s developing theories on aestheticism, authorship, and the complex relationship between artistic authenticity and deception in Victorian literature.
