This paper is a study on De Profundis as a love letter. By proving that this prison letter is a love letter written by Oscar Wilde to Alfred Douglas in Reading Gaol, I want to show that this prison letter subverts the conventional form of the novels. In conventional novels love between man and woman is usual and so erotic heterosexual feelings are common. Hetero-sexuality is a main theme in almost all the traditional forms of novels, poems and dramas. However, in De Profundis Wilde experiments with a new kind of writing when he makes his love for Douglas clear. Erotic feelings for another man is presupposed in this letter.
Wilde started his letter expressing his hatred and despise toward Douglas, who had not written to him for a long time just because Wilde didn’t allow him the dedication of his poetry to Wilde. Wilde found this to be an insufficient excuse for cutting off communication. However, recalling his past life with Douglas before his confinement and reconstructing it in his mind Wilde confessed that Douglas had loved him really and he himself loved him as mother loved her own child. Moreover, he introduces another lover, Robert Ross, into the letter and portrays him as an ideal friend. This must have hurt Douglas. However, this was just a gesture to make Douglas feel jealousy for Ross. Inspiring jealousy for the rival in a lover when the lover doesn’t show enough love is one of the traditional methods of love between man and woman. Wilde here makes use of a triangular relationship of love to get back Douglas’ love. Therefore, we can conclude that Wilde regarded homosexuality as the same thing with heterosexuality in its essence.
