In January 1882, a twenty seven year-old newly-published poet named
Oscar Wilde embarked on a lecture tour of the United States and
Canada. Wilde was lecturing about the English art movement
Aestheticism in conjunction with the comic opera by Gilbert and
Sullivan called Patience or Bunthorne's Bride, which mocked the
movement. Stretching from the East to West Coast, this was one of
the very first press tours of its kind; made possible by new,
faster train transportation and more press coverage. With his
cunning, witty interaction with the press and his fantastical,
gender-role-defying clothing, Wilde embodied a new cultural
phenomenon; the counterculture artist celebrity. By detailing how
Wilde defied Victorian gender roles while spreading the
counterculture ideals of Aestheticism, this book illustrates the
lasting cultural impact of Wilde's 1882 tour.
