Product Description

Bruce Stovel, University Of Alberta

"This edition is a model of useful scholarship." --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

Book Description

Joseph Andrews, first published in 1742, is in part a parody of Samuel Richardson’s Pamela. But whereas Richardson’s novel is marked by the virtues of female chastity and the triumph of steadfast morality, Fielding’s Joseph Andrews is peopled with lascivious women, thieves, hypocrites, and general fools. As we follow the characters in their travels, what unfolds is a lively panoramic satire of mid-Georgian England. --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

5.0 out of 5 stars An incredible book on real friendship ,chastity and honesty, 14 Jan 1999
By A Customer
This is an incredible book about real friendship,chastity and honesty written in the most humorous fashion.Fielding brings out the true values of friendship beteween Parson Adams and Joseph and true love between the latter and Funny.He points out the sad but true "false" nature of the upper class and brings out questions about real life.I like this book because it encourages chastity and esteems honesty.
