Anti-Pamela and ShamelaAuthor :
Paperback
Published : Friday 30 January 2004
Description
Published together for the first time, Eliza Haywoods Anti-Pamela and Henry Fieldings An Apology for the Life of Mrs. Shamela Andrews are the two most important responses to Samuel Richardsons novel Pamela. Anti-Pamela comments on Richardsons representations of work, virtue, and gender, while also questioning the generic expectations of the novel that Pamela establishes, and it provides a vivid portrayal of the material realities of life for a woman in eighteenth-century London. Fieldings Shamela punctures both the figure Richardson established for himself as an author and Pamelas preoccupation with virtue. This Broadview edition also includes a rich selection of historical materials, including writings from the period on sexuality, womens work, Pamela and the print trade, and education and conduct.
