Oscar Wilde's play, Lady Windermere's Fan, was a four acts play that was first performed in 1892 and was published the following year. The reviews of the play were strictly positive and they thought Wilde was nothing unless witty and brilliant. The play is about the jealousy that Lady Windermere faces when she sees her husband fawning over an older woman. When in fact, the older woman is Lady Windermere's mother who was presumed dead 20 years prior and is using her husband as a way to reunite with Lady Windermere. Lady Windermere's Fan was one of Wilde's first "comedies" and used shrewd satire of Victorian high society in order to achieve this. Wilde wrote Lady Windermere's Fan as a way to highlight the Victorian culture and how pretentious it was, he wanted to highlight the impact that had especially on the woman in society.
