Joseph Andrews (Paperback). Questo articolo non è disponibile.Joseph Andrews (Paperback)

Paperback. A virtuous footman embarks on a journey through 18th-century England, confronting hypocrisy and moral corruption. Through a series of misadventures, he encounters a range of characters that expose the absurdities of social pretensions and the complexities of human behavior. This work blends humor and social commentary to critique the affectations of the time. Henry Fielding's comic novel "Joseph Andrews" was originally published in 1742 in two volumes. A takeoff on Samuel Richardson's "Pamela," it follows Pamela's brother Joseph in the model of the Tory satirists of the previous generation. Although begun as a parody, it became an accomplished novel and marks the beginning of Fielding's career as a serious novelist.
