In 1895 Oscar Wilde was put on trial for gross indecency after the details of a homosexual affair were made public. Wilde lived and died as both the artist and the art. What began in the late 1800s over 100 years to take hold, and we still struggle today with some of the ideas raised by this trial. 

Dr. Silvia Solomon is a retired educator who worked in schools, universities, and the Ontario Ministry of Education. Since her retirement, she has presented the Great Trial series at the University of Toronto, Toronto Metropolitan University, the Toronto Reference Library, the 92nd St. Y, the OLLI program in California and the Instituto d'Allende in Mexico.
