Differentiated book- It has a historical context with research of the time-Children in Prison and Other Cruelties of Prison Life, was published by the novelist and poet Oscar Wilde as an attempt to discover what he considered the scandal of child prisoners incarcerated in British prisons. The pamphlet, first published in the form of a letter to the editor of the Daily Chronicle in 1897, was written after Wilde was released from Reading prison: he had served a sentence for sexual offenses. During his time as a prisoner, Wilde had observed many young men locked up with adult criminals, whose corrupting influence he believed would lead children to a life of greater crime. For young people, adult jails were the cause of "sheer terror." Many children were locked up in the dark for 23 hours each day, feeding only on water and 'poorly baked' bread.Wilde was particularly outraged by the treatment received by a prison guard, Thomas Martin, who was fired from his post for offering a cookie to a boy who was "crying with hunger." In Wilde's opinion, such treatment was inhumane, and he advocated that no child be incarcerated for any reason if he was under the age of 14. Oscar Wilde (October 16, 1854 - November 30, 1900)

"Children in Prison and Other Cruelties of Prison Life" by Oscar Wilde is a letter that was written by the author to the editor of the London Daily Chronicle. Wilde states about child cruelty in prison and makes the argument that children under the age of 14 must not be imprisoned, implying that there were children under the age of 14 in prison with him. He writes a few stories about the gentleness of the recently fired prison guard. He explains why cruelty is tolerated in prison but kindness is not.

Excerpt from Children in Prison and Other Cruelties of Prison Life The present treatment of children is terrible, primarily from people not understanding the peculiar psychology of a child's nature. A child can understand a punishment inflicted by an individual, such as a parent or guardian, and bear it with a certain amount of acquiescence. What it cannot understand is a punish ment inflicted by Sopiety. It cannot realise what Society is. With grown people it is, of course, the reverse. Those of us who are either in prison or have been sent there, can understand, and do understand, what that collective force called Society means, and whatever we may think of its methods or claims, we can force ourselves to accept it. Punishment inflicted on us by an individual, on the other hand, is a thing that no grown person endures or is expected to endure.

Unlike some other reproductions of classic texts (1) We have not used OCR(Optical Character Recognition), as this leads to bad quality books with introduced typos. (2) In books where there are images such as portraits, maps, sketches etc We have endeavoured to keep the quality of these images, so they represent accurately the original artefact. Although occasionally there may be certain imperfections with these old texts, we feel they deserve to be made available for future generations to enjoy.
