De Profundis is a long letter written by Oscar Wilde during his imprisonment in Reading Gaol, to Lord Alfred Douglas. The writer tell about his emotions, his thoughts, obsessions and intellectual evolutions. He begins to retrace all the events of his life, starting from the beginning of his friendship with “Bosie”, nickname with which Lord Douglas was called, until the difficult experience in the prison.
After the imprisonment, Wilde entrusts the manuscript to his faithful friend Robert Ross. At the beginning the letter is known as In Carcere et Vinculis. In 1905 is published with the original title De Profundis. A new edition follows in 1908. In 1947, thanks to the writer's son, the full version of the letter is published.
In the first part of the letter, Wilde, tells about the different characters and behavior between himself and Bosie. On the one hand are described kindness, sensitivity, innate elegance and the genius of Wilde, on the other hand the violent nature and the vulgarity of Lord Douglas, who influenced his artistic production. Bosie took advantage from the fame of Oscar, he used and dissipated the writer’s wealth. The writer reveals his bitterness towards his story with the lover characterized by periods of apparent calm and continuous quarrels. Wilde, also, accuses himself of having succumbed to his weaknesses and of being permissive towards Alfred.
Another figure that torments Wilde is Bosie’s father, the Marquis of Queensberry, who accuses Oscar of the crime of sodomy. Famous is the note left by the Marquis in the club of Wilde: “Oscar Wilde, who posed as sodomite”.
From prison, Oscar realizes how his life was a toy in the hands of Douglas and his father and that the three years he spent with his young lover, were really fatal. However, Wilde continues to love Alfred and can not get out of the abyss where he is.
De Profundis ends with a suggestion to Bosie, encouraging him to go on and not to think about the past anymore, the writer forgives him and forgives himself. At the end the letter is an apparent form of farewell, but in reality hides the desire to see again the young lover.
Douglas will deny having received Wilde's letter, continuing to reciprocate with the usual contempt the love of his “master”.
