摘要

As the only tragedy written by Oscar Wilde, Salome enjoys a unique status among all the works of Wilde. It is the repre-sentative work of aestheticism and has faced as many controversies as its author since the day it came out . Through the careful anal-ysis of the conflict revealed both inside the play and outside the play, and based on Aristotle's tragedy theory to interpret the causes of these conflicts, it can be concluded that the design of the conflict in Salome is in accordance with the tragedy theory. Fur-thermore, interpreting Salome from the perspective of Aristotle's theory has attached this play with more intricate meaning and dif-ferent understanding.
