Re: John Nichols on James Weinstein on Oscar Wilde and the Left

"Wilde is in the general tradition of William Morris (NEWS FROM NOWHERE,
etc.)" Jim D.
COMMENT:
Mine is a simple remark, & in the context of the discussion taking place
on the matter- largely irrelevant. But I do object to the simplistic
equation of William Morris (A man deeply involved with forming a Marxist
Party and mass links) & Oscar Wilde (A man representing the highest of
individual courage). I say "largely irrelevant" - since the deeper
purposes & linkages of the men involved, informs the purpose of their
writings.
