      ab: A literary criticism is presented which focuses on the writer Oscar Wilde. The author says that for the first seven or eight years of the twentieth century, publishing Wilde in Europe was almost exclusively the work of two well-established pornographers, Leonard Smithers in London and Charles Carrington in Paris. From the time of Wilde's death in 1900 to the 1908 appearance of the authorized Methuen Collected edition of his works, nearly everything Wilde had ever written was pirated by either Smithers or Carrington. As Wilde's publisher during his post-prison years, Smithers maintained a very elitist view of the production and distribution of literary material, especially if this material was somewhat less than conventionally respectable.
