psychic messages from Oscar Wilde
London 1924 T. Werner Laurie Ltd. Hardcover 1st Edition
Hardcover (imperfections on the covers), 22 x 14 cm, 179 pp., English, 1st Edition, book condition: Very Good, only spotting on the title page. Hester Travers Smith (also known as Hester Dowden), a prominent Irish spiritualist medium, published Psychic Messages from Oscar Wilde in 1923 (or 1924). The work details alleged communications with the spirit of the deceased playwright Oscar Wilde, conducted through automatic writing and Ouija board sessions. rnKey Content and ContextrnThe "Wilde" Voice: The messages are noted for their attempt to mimic Wildes signature wit and aphoristic style. In these scripts, the spirit of Wilde offers caustic literary criticisms of contemporaries, such as James Joyces Ulysses and George Meredith.rnStructure: The book, sometimes titled Oscar Wilde from Purgatory, includes chapters on psychic phenomena like cryptesthesia and subconscious influence, alongside transcripts of the "conversations".rnContributors: It features a preface by Sir William F. Barrett, a physicist and co-founder of the Society for Psychical Research, who analyzed the validity of the scripts while distancing himself from the spirit's literary opinions.rnReception: While spiritualists took the messages seriously, critics often viewed them as an "uncomfortable pastiche" of Wilde's voice or elaborate literary fan fiction.

A Collection of Original Manuscripts, Letters & Books of Oscar Wilde including his Letters written to Robert Ross from Reading Gaol and Unpublished Letters, Poems & Plays formerly in the possession of Robert Ross C.S. Millard (Stuart Mason) and the younger son of Oscar Wilde.
London, Dulau & Company Limited, 1928 In-4 (260 x 195mm) de (1)f., XIpp. (verso bl.), 140pp., (1)f.bl., demi-toile grège d'éditeur, étiquette de titre contrecollée au dos.
"Édition originale de ce catalogue riche de reproductions et d'extraits -parfois en facsimilé- des inédits de Wilde mis en en vente. Un des 105 exemplaires de tête numérotés à la main sur British Millbourn Handmade Paper (seul grand papier, dont 5 hors-commerces); celui-ci n°87. ""We have submitted the letters in this catalogue for examination to Lord Alfred Douglas. Lord Alfred raises no objection to their dispersal in view of their historical and self-revealing interest, and considers that his consent is sufficiently indicative of the attitude he takes up towards the references to himself which they contain."" Cet avertissement précisant que la dispersion des lettres a été préalablement soumise à l'approbation de Lord Alfred Douglas (1870-1945) alias Bosie -on sait que son intimité avec Oscar Wilde fut cause de la tragédie qui frappa ce dernier- est suivie d'un papillon, relié avec l'exemplaire: il y est précisé que les demandes concernant les documents manuscrits sont soumise à une condition suspensive, afin de ménager la possibilité que la collection en soit vendue en bloc. En 1928, Wilde était mort depuis vingt ans mais nombre des témoins de sa vie ne l'étaient pas, et ce sont de précieuses archives qui furent rendues publiques à l'occasion de cette vente, dont beaucoup de textes qu'on découvre dans le catalogue, souvent dans leur intégralité, en première édition. Très bel exemplaire en demi-reliure d'éditeur dont les plats sont d'un jaune évoquant, à dessein, celui de la revue The Yellow Book de Aubrey Beardsley."
