Who comes out as the actual heroine in Lady Windermere's Fan, Mrs. Erlynne or Lady Windermere?

this is a question which largely depends on the reader but
if you would have seen the sub-title of the play, a play about a good
woman, and compared it with lady windermere's speech in act four, you
will see that the play is all about mrs. erlynne and women of her
character...

               in this speech, lady windermere
has defined herself in the first half (recklessness/sin- going to darlington,
jealousy/assertion- not letting mrs. erlynne be a guest to her)... and has
defined mrs. erlynne in the next half( sorrow/sacrifice- facing shame at lord
darlington's place with no fault of her own, repentance- coming back to the society and
sacrificing for her
daughter)...

                  we will see that
this play that is 'about a good woman' is actually about a woman who is bad in the eyes
of the society but good as a person... she may have a reckless past but the
so-called-goodwoman, lady windermere, is also capable of committing such a
mistake...

                      it is a taunt on the
victorian society and it's blind, prejudiced ideologies by Oscar Wilde.... it's a
comment opn the idea of 'propah' during the victorian society.... th word, 'propah'
originate sfrom that era..... and this play defines
it....

         btu all in all mrs. erlynne is the heroine
of this play because she is the rescuer(of lady windermere), she is the sufferer, she is
the mystory,she is the beauty and she is the topic of gossip all through the play. so if
we compare the play with present day movies then she is the 'heroine'...

("i don't think now that peole can be divided
into good or bad.... What are called good women may have terrible things in them, mad
moods of recklessness, assertion, jealousy, sin. Bad women as they are termed, may have
in them sorrow, repentance, pity, sacrifice...")
