The Decay of Lying (Philosophy of Art)

A video explaining Oscar Wilde's famous dialogue between Vivian and Cyril on the Decay of Lying, arguing for aestheticism, art that is done for its own sake, not to accurately reproduce the world, over realism. This is the intro video for a longer series exploring Wilde's essay, the viewpoints he is engaging with, and some contemporary issues related to these arguments.
