About the Book

Salomé est une tragédie d'Oscar Wilde dont la version originale de 1891 est en français. Une traduction en anglais a suivi trois ans plus tard. La pièce, en un acte, repose sur l'épisode biblique de Salomé1, belle-fille du tétrarque de Galilée Hérode Antipas, qui, à la consternation de son beau-père, mais au grand plaisir de sa mère Hérodiade, demande qu'on lui apporte la tête de Iokanaan (Jean le Baptiste) sur un plateau d'argent comme récompense pour avoir exécuté la danse des sept voiles. Versions et premières Wilde écrivit cette pièce à Paris, où il s'était retiré après avoir achevé L'Éventail de Lady Windermere.

Le texte de la pièce fut publié pour la première fois en français en 1893. Dans un article intitulé The Censure and Salomé, publié dans la Pall Mall Gazette du 29 juin 1892, interrogé sur la raison pour laquelle il avait écrit Salomé en français, Wilde déclare: I have one instrument that I know I can command, and that is the English language. There was another instrument to which I had listened all my life, and I wanted once to touch this new instrument to see whether I could make any beautiful thing out of it. Of course, there are modes of expression that a Frenchman of letters would not have used, but they give a certain relief or color to the play. A great deal of the curious effect that Maeterlinck produces comes from the fact that he, a Flamand by grace, writes in an alien l
