The Importance of Being Ernest By Oscar Wilde The Importance of Being Earnest is Oscar Wilde’s famous 1895 comedic play, a witty satire on Victorian society’s absurd conventions, particularly marriage, class, and morality, centered on two bachelors who invent fictional identities (like the name “Ernest”) to escape social obligations, leading to hilarious confusion and romantic entanglements.
