No Verão de 1891, Wilde é apresentado ao jovem Lord Alfred Douglas, familiarmente conhecido como Bosie, estudante de Oxford com aspirações literárias, filho do Marquês de Queensberry. Inicia-se então a tempestuosa amizade que culminará no julgamento e condenação de Oscar Wilde a dois anos de trabalhos forçados, em 1895.A longa carta dirigida a Lord Alfred Douglas foi escrita durante os últimos meses que Wilde passou na prisão de Reading. Esta carta não foi enviada a Bosie da prisão, mas confiada a Robert Ross, amigo de Wilde, várias vezes mencionado ao longo do texto, que dela mandou fazer duas cópias, de acordo com a vontade de Oscar Wilde. Uma das cópias teria como destinatário Lord Alfred Douglas, que sempre negou tê-la recebido, a segunda foi deixada em testamento ao filho de Wilde, Vyvyan Holland.
