Hu, Yuzhi. Jin dai wen xue gai guan [ID D27215].
Bonnie S. McDougall : Hu Yuzhi described Oscar Wild as a major dramatist as well as a poet, novelist and writer of fairy-tales. He mentions that The picture of Dorian Gray had already been translated into Chinese, as well as some plays and many fine poems and fairy-tales. According to Hu Yuzhi, Wilde's main contribution to literature was in the theory and criticism, as the founder of the Aesthetic School and major advocate of the separation of art from life. Hu then went on to say that Wilde was a decadent writer who led a dissolute life and was sent to prison for committing an offence against the law. He avoids making explicit the nature of Wilde's offence, but it is unlikely that it would not be known to this group of professional writers. In the puritanical atmosphere of the May Fourth movement, Wilde's flamboyant homosexuality may have been a substantial factor in alienating the more serious-minded of the literary revolutionaries.
