Instructions:

1. Cut out the cover insert, on page 1, around the outer

perimeter. Do not cut along the center.

2. Fold the cover insert in half, with the text on the outside.

3. Insert the cover insert in the CD case cover.

4. Cut out the tray insert, on page 2, around the outer

perimeter.

5. The right- most long narrow title "tab", on the tray

insert, is for CD case with a transparent tray.
Remove this "tab" if the CD case has an opaque tray.

that "tab" 90 degrees again, away from the title
"tab" next to it. The text should appear around the
exterior of the folded cover, not the interior.

against the case.

A Florentine Tragedy And La Sainte Courtisane

Two short fragments: an unfinished and a lost play.

A Florentine Tragedy, left in a taxi (not a handbag), is Wilde's most
successful attempt at tragedy - intense and domestic, with surprising
depth of characterisation. It was adapted into an opera by the Austrian
composer Alexander Zemlinsky in 1 91 7.

La Sainte Courtisane, or The Woman Covered in Jewels explores one
of Wilde's great idees fixes: the paradox of religious hedonism, pagan
piety. Both plays, Wildean to their core, revel in the profound sadness
that is the fruit of the conflict between fidelity and forbidden love.
Written towards the end of his tragic life, these fragments give us a
glimpse of a genius at his best: visceral, passionate, personal,
poetic. (Summary by Simon Larois)
