Oscar Wilde was an Irish writer, playwright and poet.

History[edit]

While building a model depicting the inside of Westminster Abbey (a project that Bart was supposed to do), Homer fell asleep and dreamed he met the ghosts of Geoffrey Chaucer and Anne of Cleves. The ghosts gave him contradictory advice about doing Bart's work for him. Chaucer said he was right to do it and it was the best thing for Bart. Anne, however, said that Chaucer's advice was terrible and that Homer's doing everything for Bart meant that Bart would never learn to do anything for himself. Oscar Wilde's ghost then appeared, quoting some of his most famous sayings, which annoyed Homer. Later, at the building contest, when Bart revealed the truth about Homer doing all the work, he told Homer that Oscar Wilde had also come to him in a dream.[1]

Raphael mentioned one of Oscar Wilde's sayings, "Some cause happiness wherever they go, others whenever they go", when Skinner's car was totaled and ended up at the Auto Shop.[2]

In a story told by Homer, Edna Krabappel went to get married to Oscar Wilde, who was in town on a book tour.[3]
