Oscar Wilde: Salome (First Edition) (Original cover design of the 1893 first edition)
Salome, the case of Herod the king of Judea, who beheaded John the Baptist with Herodias his wife's tilling 17th. (Verse 28) Oscar Wilde is a dramatic one, and it's a French-speaking first-word. According to the Scriptures, when King Herod married Herod, his brother's wife, Herodias, John the Baptist accused this of violating Jewish law. With his discontent, Herodias tried to arrest and kill John but could not kill him in the contrary, for fear of the prophet of God. Then one day, when Herod's birthday and the feast were held, Herodias called for her little daughter Salome to dance before the guests and pleased them, and he swore to reward them with anything he wanted. Salome, who was instructed by Herodias, demanded John's head and could not break his oath before many men, eventually beheaded him. Although Salome is a passive figure, under orders from her mother, who demands John's head, in Oscar Wilde's work, it is depicted as a pampatal, with his own will to seduce King Herod with his lips.
