Foster) emphasized the satirical aspect of the work, evaluating it as showing a world where true values ​​are reversed and rationality and irrationality are mixed.\u003cbr\u003e Meanwhile, novelist H.

Wells) highlighted the comic elements of the work by commenting that the work uses dramatic devices such as dialogue and reversal in a comical way to create great laughter.” _Page 195\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The theme and material of the play, 'Bunburism', refers to the act of creating a virtual character, another 'self', and living as a completely different being depending on the location or the people one meets.\u003cbr\u003e In other words, it is about moving the standards that shape me to another place, breaking free from social obligations, and experiencing new worlds and relationships.\u003cbr\u003e One reason why \"Ernest? Ernest!\" continues to be reread in modern times and is considered one of Wilde's most important works is that Wilde's perspective on the world remains completely unsung. \u003cbr\u003eEven without any particular moral message or profound theme, you will find yourself being drawn into the story the author unfolds without even realizing it.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The Importance of Seriousness.\u003cbr\u003e In this play, known by titles such as “The Importance of Being Ernest,” “important” values ​​are mocked through characters and dialogue, ultimately leaving one wondering, “What was really important?”\u003cbr\u003e Serious people might find themselves in the world Wilde created, becoming more serious, or leaving in search of something more serious, or appearing to be absorbed in something but quickly becoming childish.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e The title was retranslated to reflect the multi-layered implications of the adjective and proper noun 'Ernest' in this work and to encourage reflection on the work. \u003cbr\u003eBefore publication, we edited and reorganized a separate page of readers' interviews where they shared their thoughts while enjoying the snacks and tea featured in the play.\u003cbr\u003e On the web page linked by QR code, you can find stories of five interesting readers' works, materials about Oscar Wilde's life, and behind-the-scenes stories of the editing process. \u003cbr\u003e\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:95%;padding-top:20px;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:16px;font-weight:bold;padding-bottom:20px\"\u003e GOODS SPECIFICS \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"text-align:left;font-size:14px;line-height:1.6em;\"\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eDate of issue:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 4, 2024\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003ePage count, weight, size:\u003c\/strong\u003e 170 pages | 170g | 128*188*170mm\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003cdiv style=\"width:100%;margin-bottom:5px;line-height:1.6em;font-size:14px\"\u003e - \u003cstrong\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9791173070648 \u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003ccenter\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\u003ctr\u003e\u003ctd style=\"height:10px\"\u003e\u003c\/td\u003e\u003c\/tr\u003e\u003c\/table\u003e\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\u003cspan\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e\n\n\n\u003c\/center\u003e","brand":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":43889679597610,"sku":"161270","price":24.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0683\/2750\/5962\/files\/8ea38466868ab31917e8f9a61030884d.jpg?v=1765263473","url":"https:\/\/librairie.coreenne.fr\/en\/products\/161270","provider":"LIBRAIRIE COREENNE","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
