That still comes from near eastern myths of Ishtar and the like.

The other Wilde play I admire apart from <i>Salome</i>. Was it Wilde that first developed the idea of Salome's Dance of the 7 Veils? If so, he must have got it from Islamic story of Joseph and Potiphar's wife Zuleikha who performed a Dance of the 7 Veils too in the Islamic books of lore that relate this story and pre-date Wilde's <i>Salome</i>.Rehan Qayoomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02391797858691917631noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-53131226394315767662010-03-04T16:27:19.231-08:002010-03-04T16:27:19.231-08:00They are good to read but better to see performed....They are good to read but better to see performed.Anastasia F-Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01284602529524462457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-88286507152905545692010-03-04T07:13:55.278-08:002010-03-04T07:13:55.278-08:00I've never seen an Oscar Wilde play, or any pl...I've never seen an Oscar Wilde play, or any play for that matter, but have read a couple of them - Lady Windermere's Fan and The Importance of Being Earnest. I'll be sure to look for this one in a book I own, whether I'll get round to reading it is of course an entirely different matter as I struggle reading books. It's rediculous, I have some compulsion to re-read pages I've already read, the format throws me off. I've spent too long staring at a screen which can't be turned :@.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-76899894041135098062010-03-03T00:07:45.116-08:002010-03-03T00:07:45.116-08:00You must!You must!Anastasia F-Bhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01284602529524462457noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4413130168723738166.post-38773509911566496342010-03-02T20:43:42.389-08:002010-03-02T20:43:42.389-08:00i had read oscar wilde's poems when i was back...i had read oscar wilde's poems when i was back in school , but never ever had the opportunity to see his plays . i don't think there are many groups that do it now. i guess mainly cause there are always soo much of new material being made all the time. i would want to read salome just to see how "Purple and decadent" comes out..Nitinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03067973096892435321noreply@blogger.com
