"De Profundis" is a poignant letter penned by Oscar Wilde during his imprisonment, reflecting on love, suffering, and spiritual redemption. Addressed to his former lover, Lord Alfred Douglas, Wilde laments the heartbreak caused by their tumultuous relationship and his fall from grace. Through poetic prose, he explores themes of sacrifice, the nature of art, and the quest for personal meaning amid despair. The work serves as both a personal confession and a broader meditation on human experience, ultimately revealing Wilde's resilience and search for forgiveness in the face of profound sorrow and isolation.
